Daughter's Controller Hack Creates Portable PS4

Controlling a Vita and Dual Shock 4 improves the experience more than you might imagine. Hack them together like my daughter did and you have a new way to play PlayStation 4 games on the go — big bright screen, controller sticks, lights and rumble.

FITgamer4511d ago

Pretty cool little trick, but if i understand correctly the controller is connected to the PS4, so you wouldn't be able to play it anywhere in the world like he says.

UltimateMaster4511d ago (Edited 4511d ago )

Cool trick.

gaffyh4510d ago

OR you could just use your Vita...

hkgamer4510d ago

cool trick but as you say you won't be able to play it outside the range of PS4.

I was wondering when they would allow remote play on phones and tablets, that would be quite cool.

evs4904510d ago

When playstation now comes out.

Starbucks_Fan4510d ago

Can you use it anywhere with a wifi connection?

I tried it at Starbucks and it didn't work.

AtomicGerbil4510d ago

Likely to be a firewall issue with Starbucks.

XSpike4510d ago

& you only need 1 DS4 controller not 2

Pretty cool though, perfect for gaming outside or while TV in use

Wishing I had a Vita I would try this trick out myself >,<

Christopher4511d ago

When what they really need to do is allow you to register a DS4 with your Vita and use it as an external controller if you want.

e-p-ayeaH4511d ago

yes that would the ideal thing and sony could come up with their own solution to this issue.

MRMagoo1234511d ago

thats a good idea , sony should look into that if they arent already, it would sell more DS4 controllers i suspect.

FamilyGuy4510d ago

Everything will sell more DS4 controllers.

Them working on PS3
Using them for PS Now with any device
Using them for Vita Tv once released outside Japan
They plug and Play on PC

Add a vita update that allows native connectivity and DS4s will be selling like crazy.

chicagOriginal4510d ago

You use to be able to do this w/ a DS3 and a pspGO back in the day. Do not see why they would not allow it now?

XiSasukeUchiha4511d ago

Sweet Portable PS4 even better!

kinetic1004511d ago

My 2 girls were doing this the other day by accident, they were playing 2 player lego marvel when i wanted the TV for the football, so the use remote play and carried on playing 2 player on the vita. made me think it would be cool way to play split screen games.

chrisarsenalsavart4511d ago (Edited 4511d ago )

Your daughters are really smart.
it must be cool to have daughters who love gaming. Mine hate it. They prefer playing with Barbie.

Long live gaming.

GW2124510d ago

Probably time to just go ahead and give them up for adoption ;)

rustyspoon804510d ago

Keep trying until you have a couple of lads also :)

Hicken4510d ago

NO, that can't be... No! I can't... Really?/s

Cacabunga44d ago

They for sure chose the worst way to deal with it

-Foxtrot43d ago

Funny considering Bruce left half way through development and now we get told there was an internal conflict with the story direction.

Makes you think…

HectixRose44d ago

I think it was good decision, if he was still alive, he would have been a mascot just like Kratos, drake and many others. These old dudes gotta die for new characters to take center stage with their own storyline. They keep dragging the emotional baggage into many sequels and eventually the story just turns into absolute shit show.

JEECE44d ago

It was ironic because people complained heavily about the story in the Uncharted games not having sufficient stakes because all the key characters always survived, despite the dangerous situations they were always in. Then ND killed a character in a more serious series and everyone lost their minds. Just shows that people don't always really want the thing they say they want.

CantThinkOfAUsername44d ago

I thought the more common complaint about Uncharted franchise was how the main cast are the good guys acting so nonchalantly while killing hundreds in cold blood (aka the dissonance between gameplay and story cutscenes). They just did it again in Part II.

Soy44d ago

Didn't have to kill him. Just have them part ways or Joel can "retire," whatever.

DarXyde44d ago

I don't think he would necessarily need to become a mascot (and besides, technically, I'd say Ellie is... So regardless, someone was going to be).

From a narrative perspective, I do think it has a similar effect to Ricky dying in Boyz N Da Hood: very likeable character, and you're really motivated to see the get back—in this case, it's more intense because it's an interactive experience. Most people hated Abby, but I get what they were after with portraying the cycle of violence and revenge—unfortunately, the game appears to want to take the side of the bad people.

But I will say that if Joel survived, it does become harder to tell an interesting story. What COULD have happened is an exploration into the rift between Joel and Ellie after the trolley dilemma events of the first game. It could have been interesting to see Abby out for revenge at the same time Ellie hated Joel.

Ashunderfire8644d ago

Sorry just had to say this lol! RICKYYYY!

Man Cuba Gooding Jr was miscast in that movie, but that part was cringey it was sad and funny at the same time man.

Ashunderfire8644d ago (Edited 44d ago )

I understand but the way they went about killing Joel, was poorly executed. Even the show of the Last of Us games tried to improved it, but it was just as bad. Well at least Joel got to know the reason why he had to die, before the death happened in the show. That part gave us the full context, but the game just let it happen with no pay off.

Joel death should have been a midway thing through the story, so we at least get to play him a little more with Ellie. Abby didn’t need to be this Hulk looking woman, but more like the show Abby which is a beater idea in my opinion.

The only ND game that was so disappointing to me I couldn't finish it.

pwnmaster300044d ago

Honestly as much as I loved the game, they could have just not killed him off.
I get it creator vision and all but killing a character that made you millions is just wrong imo. At least have him go down fighting.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle44d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7744d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
