If you can in fact play ps4 games on your Vita outside your own wifi, it would be massive. I wonder if in this particular commercial it works because it's set in a college/university and there might be one standard wifi network?
This is also the first time we see the Sony Vita TV device. Sony is billing it as a way to play Vita on your TV, but they're oddly glossing over the biggest feature imo: it will let you play your ps4 on a different tv in your house. Sick days in bed would never be the same.

Agree, that would get me to purchase one.
Even crazier is if the remote play function does truly work outside your own WiFi network they just built you a super portable PS4 connector that you could take to friends houses to hook up to their TV to play PS4.
Edit: Sony may have predicted this actually and blocked off that functionality for the Vita TV. If you freeze the video at 2:17 you will not see the PS4 remote play icon that you saw on the Vita available.
I do hope these changes in combo with the PS4 remote play get the Vita to take off though. I love that device from a hardware point of view but they do need to get a deeper install base to get some real AAA development for the system. Killzone and Borderlands 2 will be a good start.
