For all you people who enjoy staring at icons on your OLED, the new Vita firmware drops tonight so take those Vitas out of flight mode.

It will feature the ability to buy and download themes for your Vita including themes from games like UC Golden Abyss and Freedom Wars (coming soon).

"PS Vita system software update v3.30 will be available to download, enabling you to personalize your PS Vita’s Start and Home screens, system application icons, and the system’s background music"

There's some other slight changes to trophies and other crap that probably no one uses

Source: http://blog.us.playstation.com/2014/10/01/themes-coming-to-ps-vita-with-system-software-update-3-30/

The Crystal one doesn't look too bad, but I just put all the system apps in a folder anyways and use P4G backgrounds for everything.

This, both the 3DS and Vita upcoming libraries are really lacking to me.

I would be more pissed about that if my backlog on both systems wasn't that big :P

People still talk about that dead device? Its been buried long ago. Cows are basically laying flowers at its grave, and reminiscing about not playing games on it.

I'll download it, but I already have a custom Persona 4 theme for my Vita, and unless they release an official one that's better, I don't think I'll bite.

@KBFloYd: Vita didn't have themes. It had a high degree of customizability (more than any other non PC device on the market that I can think of, actually, at least right out the box), and me and most other players used that to our advantage to create what are essentially custom themes for our systems. These are official themes, and I imagine they will change, among other things, the appearance of icons, system fonts, system sounds, and so on.

That said, my P4G theme is awesome and unless I get something equally awesome, I'm sticking to what I have.

EDIT: I'm on my phone so I can't hyperlink, but if you want to check out the thread where we all posted our custom themes, here it is.

@k--m--k: agreed. People act like I'm making it up when I talk about the system. But it's quite good.

You tend to be somewhat hyperbolic
