Reddit reviews Nyko Power Grip for Vita - PlayStation Vita 1000 series

if you do i really recommend some grip attachments. especially if you got bigger hands, i have these http://www.amazon.com/Nyko-Power-Grip-Vita-Sony-PS/dp/B0079V29EI but they are on the big side there are smaller ones. i suggest you check out /r/vita

Nyko Power Grip.

I carry them, sometimes, in the store I work at. We sell out the second anyone gets to feel them. I absolutely love mine, they make it feel like you're holding a dual-shock and not just a little portable system. They are a bit big for packages, but they do include an astounding battery pack (extra ~6 hours of life during gameplay). In short, I didn't charge my vita for over a month (didn't use it) and it still has 20% battery life.

The PDP Grips are good, but not nearly as comfortable as the Nyko grips. I've used both, and sold both, never seen the Nyko's come back, people return/trade in PDP all the time.

Yeah I'm loving it! I also picked up these extras that make it even better IMO:

> 16GB memory card ($80 for a 32GB card is to rich for my blood!)

You can find them cheaper used. Amazon Warehouse was selling 32Gb cards for $45 shipped on Tuesday. I picked one up because my 8Gb card just wasn't cutting it. If you're playing mostly at home, a grip makes the system much more comfortable to hold. I recommend the Nyko Power Grip. Super comfortable, the Vita pops in and out a second, and it's got a battery built-in that'll keep your Vita charged twice as long.

its like a portable battery built into the grip. You charge the grip, the grip supplies power to the vita. Doubles battery life. HERE

Keep in mind that is a prototype version, so it looks like this

not a fan of the triggers grips myself, as soon as i bought the nyko power grip my trigger grip got shelved and never used again.

if you're interested you can get the nykko grip from amazon for about £25 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nyko-Power-Grip-Vita-PlayStation/dp/B0079V29EI/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1421082958&sr=8-8&keywords=ps+vita+trigger+grip

super comfortable and extends the battery life.

I have both the Nyko Power Grip and the PDP Trigger Grip and I really like them both. I've found the Nyko is just a little more comfortable for me and I love the extra battery life but having the extended triggers on the PDP grip is useful at times. Either grip is definitely better than no grip. I'm a girl but 6ft and apparently my hands are just too large to play without them.

EDIT: The Nyko Power grip can be picked up in the wild for cheaper than that amazon link. I just put it up for reference. If you don't care about the extra battery life also check out the CTA Grip.

There's the Nyko Power Grip which has an external battery to "double" the Vita's battery life.

There is also the PDP Trigger Grip which uses triggers to push your Vita's shoulder buttons.


There are also a variety of plain grips which don't really add any functionality other than the grip.

As for case that can fit a Vita with a grip, I've heard of people using iPad Mini cases, such as this. Also this case on Amazon has been recommended. Here is a picture: click.

on ebay was around the same price, but i coulndt find any for sale atm.
EDIT>: theres only one on ebay, and its 340 bucks

Within 10 seconds of holding the Vita I realized it was uncomfortable as shit.

Get this. Doubles the battery life, and makes holding the Vita super comfy, whether on the toilet, lying in bed, whatever.

new for 90 usd, really just open yours up and look at the battery and find one online, should be pretty easy.

anytime. Ive not been a handheld gamer for long, but the vita was definitely one of my favorite gifts of all time (i also have a ps4 so do a lot of ps4 gaming on my vita)

nyko grips were one of the best add ons to my vita. Very hard to hold without grips, and very crampy. The nyko grips are so comfortable, worth the price even without the added battery life IMHO

I dont know what it would cost for delivery, but they still sell them on the UK amazon for £25.

$32.99 USD on Amazon

I chose this grip for less than $12, as it has a similar shape to the Nyko, gets great reviews (including for shooters), and I'll be playing near power outlets.

The Nyko Power grip is my favorite without a doubt, its comfortable and more than doubles battery life, although it is a bit big. Tried the PDP trigger grips, but it made the triggers too mushy and my hands still cramped while using it.

For anyone interested:

PSV-1000 power grip

PSV-2000 power grip

Entering. It's only the four featured games available, right? If so, I'm entering for Trajectile. It looks like a fun bus/waiting time game.

This is something cool you can buy. It let's you hold the Vita as you would a controller and is under $20. This is a better version, but it's $35. There are others too.

They're the nyko grips and they even have an extra battery pack to extend the life of the vita.
