WipEout Pure on PS Vita

[chalovak]

Hello, everyone.
Hope it's okay to create new thread here.
Anyway. My question I want to direct toward those with Vita and WipEout Pure.
I know it's possible to run Pure on Vita, but the thing that interests me is addons.
Can someone check if Pure game packages (which are awesome) work on Vita? I would be very grateful for your help.
I'm planning on buying Vita, but the only reason for that is new WipEout.
Still it's not enough, I guess. But having ALL WipEouts on one console is a good selling point for me, lol.
Thanks in andvance for any response.

I'm curious to know this myself. I have Pure from PSN (bringing my total copies of Pure to four) but I'm not sure how you'd actually add any PSP data to the Vita. Anyone know?

It would be awesome if you try. Here's a FAQ how to transfer saves from PSP to VITA (don't forget that Pure add ons are like additional saves, that you put in the same folder where all PSP saves are):

1. Start a psp game on your vita and create a save file (doesn't matter what you just need a save)

2. Connect it to PC and open content manager

3. Transfer the save to the PC

4. Find out where that save was transferred to (you can also open content manager options on yor PC by clicking it in the taskbar down at the bottom right and it will have a folder listed). The folder is usually:

C:/> users > username > documents > PSVITA > PSAVEDATA > (a folder that just has numbers and letters) > in here is where you should find the psp saves

5. Plug your PSP into your PC and find your save files ( folder is in PSP > SAVEDATA)

6. Transfer the saves you want (or all of them) to the folder on PC that we found where the vita backs the psp saves to (the letter/number folder in PSAVEDATA)

7. Open content manager on vita and choose PC -> PSVITA

8. Choose applications > psp saves and check mark all the ones you want on your vita

Please, let me know if you succeed... or not. =)

Fantastic, thanks for that! It will be the morning before I get a chance to give it a go. I'll report back as soon as I do.

Good luck with that!
The fate of some random not-yet-bought Vita is in your hands now.

Well the system works - I successfully copied my save game and the packs from my PSP to my Vita and the Vita reads the saves. Now, for some reason, the Gamma and Omega packs don't seem to be working and I can't yet figure out why. I'll have a play with it to see what I can find out but the system does work. Something has just gone a bit funny with some of my files maybe?

Edit: Hmmm... trying to source a fresh Pure pack these days isn't easy but I found one, tested it and for some reason it shows up as a corrupt file (my own ones didn't, they looked fine) and yet the fresh pack file worked. Not sure what the difference is - the Gamma and Omega packs that I downloaded from the Pure servers back in the day don't seem to work. The others do.

But end result of this is that, yes, this method works.
