If you want a Vita, but all you have is a PlayStation TV and about $170 USD (19,800 JPY), hardware developer GameTech has you covered.

The Dekavita 7, spotted on NeoGAF, is a massive device that fits a full PlayStation TV into a slot on its back. Its 7-inch LCD screen doesn't support touch, and the battery enables five "consecutive" hours of play time, depending on conditions. A regular Sony Vita features a 5-inch screen, for comparison.

According to GameTech, "The cool appearance entirely grabs you." Take a look at the current design below and see for yourself. Anyone else reminded of the SupaBoy?
The Dekavita 7 will be released in Spring 2015.

seems, pointless.
 
This looks good for using the Playstation TV away from the TV with this controller case with a 7 inch screen, bigger buttons, and joysticks which is more like the PS3 controller instead of a handheld console with smaller joysticks, and button. This also looks good for people with the Playstation TV, but don't own a TV with HDMI ports.

The 5 hours of battery life is pretty good for a 7 inch screen with controller. 

I also bet there is less controller lag on this case since it uses a USB port to hook up the controller directly to the controller case to the Playstation TV instead of using a wireless controller which may have some lag because it is not directly connected to the console with a USB plug.
 
This is a kind of neat attachment... But I have a hard time saying it's worth buying simply because it lacks the touch screen option and would end up costing more than just buying a Vita would (if the user buys this plus a PS TV at the same time...) all for basically what the Vita itself can do. Though if someone already had the PS TV and wanted to be able to travel with it or something then I suppose this could be worth it. 


Though honestly, is controller lag really is issue to begin with? I mean how many times in the last 7 or so years since wireless controllers really became the standard have you ever had to deal with controller lag? Probably not very often I'd imagine.
