The below video confirms it for PS Vita as we see a YouTuber run Arkham Asylum on his fandangled PS Vita.

The last thing we heard from Playstation about their Remote Play feature is that developers would implement it with their own games as they pleased. It seems that anyone who wants to play it now can easily run custom firmware (in this case 3.55 or 3.41) and register the VITA as a mobile phone and you can instantly stream your game to your phone. Other videos on Homer49's site includes Red Dead Redemption, Alice Madness, Battlefield 3 and a few others including streaming movies straight to his Vita.

While a bit laggy, the custom does it's job and who knows you could never have to pause a game properly forever. You could go to the bathroom, hang out in another room or even play it outside. Even though the Vita has less buttons than your average PS3 controller, the feature of the firmware lets you map portions of your touchscreen to specific buttons and shows how someone's own ingenuity and creativity was able to get a feature that Sony didn't dare give free reign to it's users. Why I'm not 100% sure, but I'm glad this firmware exists.
