PS3-PlayStation Vita Remote Play capabilities
During TGS 2011 Sony showed off a number of examples of how the new device can interact with the PlayStation 3:
- Killzone 3 and little big planet 2 were streamed into the device from a PlayStation 3 unit,
noting how a few of the Dual Shock buttons missing on the Vita are mapped to the touchscreen.
- A Vita streaming movie content from Japan-only PS3 TV recorder Torne.
Note:
- it is possible to pair PSVita with a Playstation 3 on lower Firmware than 4.00 (e.g 3.41/3.55, pair as mobile phone/pc/psp)
