They just never stop! TheFloW and Rinnegatamante have released a PS Vita port of The Conduit, a few days ago. This is yet another Android port straight to Vita using TheFlow’s wrapper (a mechanism that allows to un Android apps natively on the PS Vita, without emulation, allowing for impressive performance). Thanks to this system, we’ve seen other great releases recently including Mass Effect Infiltrator, Dead Space, Fahrenheit, Crazy Taxi, Rockstar’s Bully and GTA San Andreas, the Anomaly Series, as well as Final Fantasy ports by Rinnegatamante and Frangar.
Just a few months ago, Rinne had shared that we had crossed the line of 30 Android games ported to PS Vita, we are now above 40.
What’s The Conduit HD for PS Vita
The Conduit was originally a First Person Shooter developed for the Wii. It’s “HD” version was released for Android and the Nvidia Tegra in 2013.
This PS Vita port requires the original game’s files. From the readme:
This is a wrapper/port of The Conduit HD for the PS Vita. The port works by loading the official Android ARMv7 executable in memory, resolving its imports with native functions and patching it in order to properly run. By doing so, it’s basically as if we emulate a minimalist Android environment in which we run natively the executable as is.
Download and Install The Conduit HD for PS Vita
Disclaimer: it goes without saying, but you will need a hacked PS Vita in order to run this game.
