Don't be fooled by the name. The Anbernic RG VITA is better suited at playing PSP and older games. PS Vita games do not run well on most emulators including the most popular Vita3k.

You can't advertise your product as Vita and not use OLED screen..........
More appropriate as psp 1.5

Personally I think the real issue is the RG Vita can only reliably play up to PSP, not much Vita. The screen choice (IMO) is less important than the actual performance. It would be like Anbernic calling the RG DS the RG 3DS (which funny enough is what people judged it for NOT being a 3DS when no one claimed it should be). If you don't care about Vita, it is purportedly a solid device.

I'd also argue that a modern LCD, and FAR FAR FAR higher resolution at that, is going to rival or beat a 15 year old OLED in a majority of categories.
