  • This plugin fakes your device as a PS TV and allows you to connect up to 4 DS3/DS4 controllers to your PS Vita, and play local multiplayer games, by using the exact same driver as on the PS TV. Yes, the PS Vita screen is rather small, but I think it's kinda cute to play on it with friends while travelling or so.
    Note that this plugin is still in beta stage and the known issues will be fixed when I find time.

    Only official DS3/DS4 controllers are currently supported!
  • Installation:
    1. Download minivitatv.skprx and ds3.skprx, and copy them to ux0:tai.

    2. Add these lines to taiHEN config.txt at ux0:tai/config.txt:
      *KERNEL
      ux0:tai/minivitatv.skprx
      ux0:tai/ds3.skprx

    3. Reboot your device and relaunch HENkaku. Note that you cannot use your physical buttons anymore, however you can still use your touchscreen to pair the controllers.

    If you're using enso you should boot with L trigger hold to skip plugins in case you want to remove this plugin. Remember it's a beta.
  • Pairing a DS4 controller.

    Using it for the first time:

    1. Go to Settings → Devices → Bluetooth Devices
    2. Press SHARE+PS on the DS4 for about 3-4 seconds, until the lightbar blinks very quickly
    3. The DS4 will then connect and be paired (don't press over it when it appears)

    Using it once paired (see above):

    1. Just press the PS button and it will connect to the Vita

    Pairing a DS3 controller

    Using it for the first time:

    1. Download this tool (or this other one if you want to compile it yourself)
    2. Connect your DS3 to the PC and open the tool
    3. Introduce the Vita's MAC address plus 1 to the tool (Settings → System → System information)

    Using it once paired (see above):

    1. Just press the PS button and it will connect to the Vita
  • Known issues

    • Pressing the touchpad on DS4 crashes Adrenaline
