You may want to try some of these games anyway, despite them being bad:
Jak and Daxter Collection – PlayStation Vita http://amzn.to/2lD1jnf
Borderlands 2 http://amzn.to/2mmfku0
Myst – Nintendo 3DS http://amzn.to/2mUcpFz
minecraft for vita is awsome!
I didnt have issues with jax and daxter.
I played mortal kombat advanced as my first game boy game
bo1 on ds was the shit
Injustice ios
All the Lego games tbh
Bioshock? I'm kind of surprised. I remember buying that game on the iOS, and it was actually really good. No issues or anything, for me.
9:24 To add insult to injury, two years after Sonic Genesis was released on the GBA, a romhacker made his OWN port of Sonic to the GBA, which ran at constant 60fps, has better quality music, AND had Tails and Knuckles playable.
The phone in the thumbnail isn't a fucking handheld it's a mobile.
I wanted to see Street Fighter 4 for Android…
why am I watching WatchMojo
3:30 It wasn't that bad of a port, and lets be honest: one bug killing the score? Seriously?
sooooo moh sucked cause it looked like doom? on a gba? thats fucking revolutionary on gba "muh my emersion is ruined" dude fucking kill yourself. then minecraft cause one bug? fuck off you fucking retard
snake eater? are you fucking kidding me. watchmojo is fucking autistic.
Vita was a failure in every way.
People really say SNES as "Sness"? I've always referred to it as S-N-E-S. or just Super N.E.S…. but never saying it phonetically like NASA.
4:22 What did you expect? Its a port of a 5703 MB game! To a phone! That is a shit ton for phones! But the controls are understandable also let the tech stuff slide its a port of a large game meant for a PC not a phone. They should of waited till phones have gotten more advance and able to run games like this with ease.
dinosaur on the gbc
I thought MGS 3D was perfectly fine. I just can't imagine playing it without the extra N3DS buttons or a circle pad pro.
bioshock's graphics were obviously downgraded. the original game takes 128mb video ram, 3.0 pixel shader and many more what phone can run that
Well we have the Switch now so everything is fine
some of these were actually kinda good
atleast after they got fixed
The graphics looks fine its on a phone :
You forgot Terraria for IOS
well sonic the hedgehog genesis gba sucks. and i dont have too i already avoided it.
Borderlands 2 wasn't that bad for PSVITA I enjoyed it
The most terrible 3DS port is Sonic Generations. Did they even try?
Wait, Wait, Wait, Assassin's Creed 3 for PSVITA wasn't on this list?!
MORTAL KOMBAT X! THAT TO ME IS THE WORST PORT EVER!!!
I liked the vita release of minecraft…
I had resident evil 4 for IOS
Borderlands on psvita was fine and so was Minecraft.
black ops zombies on android and iOS. Not horrible but worse than some of the games in this list
You know what better sonic game port on a fuckin old phone
Wow, you managed to pump out an ok video.
The walking dead iOS season 1
#best hand held port tony hawks underground 2 remix for vitea
"great content"
that was not bioshock… it was trashoshock… WHO THE FOCK MADE IT, it was a failure
is matpat making th list!?
Worst part is i actually do have the sonic for gba, and the framerate is absolute cancer indeed.
Just knew that there was bioshock on mobile
None of these games look that bad honestly…maybe you have to play them…
idk for bioshock but to me its okey,graphics cant be the same on pc and mobile it looks alright and controls can be fixed
Why is there so much hate for the mobile version of FF6? I guess I can understand some people not liking the new spritework, but I didn't mind, and the gameplay was just fine
For more GREAT content?
Ha,no.
