I'm going to buy a used Vita, what games do you recommend?

>>381419329
Don't bother.

The Vita isn't really worth it in 2017.

>>381419329
Persona 4 Golden is the only game on there
I guess Persona 4 DAN if you really are into it

>>381419617
He said he don't like VNs so he probably won't like it.

Oreshika: Tainted Bloodlines

>>381419329
>Wipeout
>Dragon's Crown
Make sure your vita is on firmware version 3.60 and hack the shit out of it

>>381419847
Yeah, it's on 3.60

>>381419329
soul sacrifice delta

>>381420312
Poor man's monster hunter.

>>381420392
there's completely different incentives to play either

these days, it's more like rich man's monster hunter.

aside from that, i believe soul sacrifice delta is a masterpiece. The story, the lore and the narration is all god tier.

Forgot to mention Gravity Rush if you don't have it on PS4

>>381421220

That isn't the entire Vita library, but at the same time it looks to be that it is essentially.

If a person were to work their way down the majority of that list squeezing all that they can out of each entry, the Vita really does turn into an expensive paperweight. Not counting ports of old games or the fact that a person wouldn't be interested in many of those titles.

RIP Vita--Worth it for Wipeout and LBP alone.

Little Big Planet and Wipeout still have people playing over Vita, can you believe that?

I still have no trouble finding people online when I occasionally check in.

>>381419329
i'll get ys: memories of celceta and the psp ys games on psn if you haven't played them. an amazing series.
tearaway and gravity rush are amazing. both got ps4 ports but i prefer handheld versions and they are both fun and look great on vita
the vanillaware games are great, there are 4 on the vita with a fourth coming
of course persona 4 (and 3 on psn)
these are what comes to mind. there are also a lot pf indie ports which i enjoy

>>381421220
I just listed the games I enjoyed on my Vita.
There is no need to get triggered like that.

why is it so god damn slow and clunky?

>>381422109
I tried to love those games since I have a vita

but then I realized even on hardest difficulty I could just spam attacks and dodge/jump and destroy everyone in my path

more on murasama tho...
kinda lost interest at the fifth sword or so

>it's possible to lose interest in Muramasa

>>381422427
it's just a sidescroller but with katanas to make weaboos happy

It's fun for 20minutes I give you that

>>381421042
See, it's so hard to take you seriously and puts your entire list to question when you include things like assassins creed III and Hot Shots Golf.

>>381422427
I had to take a break twice before finishing the game and all DLCs. The stories were very enjoyable, but gameplay got stale after a while

>>381422534
>he doesnt like Hot Shots Golf

>>381421042
lots of shit in there desu, and padding the list with old ass indie ports doesn't help your case either.

>>381422109
complete opposite for me

>love Dragon's Crown
>hear about Muramasa
>play it for 5 hours before I get bored
>hear about Odin Sphere remake
>play it for about 2 hours

>>381419329
>I'm playing everything except VN.
Well then, don't bother, Vita is basically weeb machine, most games are either full VN (S;G, Root Letter, Psycho Pass) or have heavy VN elements (story told through still images, sprites and walls of text in most jrpgs).

If you still want to get Vita then:
first off normie stuff:
Killzone Mercenary
Uncharted Golden Abyss
Wipeout 2048 (if you have PS4 then get Omega Collection instead)

Ateliers
Danganronpa (VN series with logic/puzzle/free roam elements)
Disgaea 3/4 (runs like shit, especially in post game, better version on PS3)
Dragon's Crown
Muramasa Rebirth
Odin Sphere (better version on PS4)
Grand Kingdom (better version on PS4)
Gravity Rush (better version on PS4)
Dragon Quest Builders (better version on PS4)
Senran Kagura: Shinovi Versus
Miku Games / IA/VT for rhythm games
Shiren the Wanderer: The Tower of Fortune and the Dice of Fate
TxK
Trails of Cold Steel
Trillion
Valkyrie Drive: Bhikkhuni
Persona 4 Golden

portable versions of PC indie games (Rogue Legacy, Spelunky, Hotline Miami, etc)
remasters / rereleases of older games (R&C, MGS HD, Sly, GoW, Jak, ...)

>>381423838
>Odin Sphere (better version on PS4)
What's better about PS4 version? I've played both and haven't noticed any significant difference

>>381422534
Whats wrong with ACIII and HSG?

>>381422673
Which game is shit? And whats wrong with indies that are good like Guacamelee, Spelunky, Risk of Rain, BoI, etc?

PS4 outputs at higher resolution at pretty stable 60fps, Vita outputs at lower resolution and suffers from slight fps drops at some points (not that noticeable tho)

that's pretty much it. Generally for all PS4 / Vita games, the PS4 version is better - simply because better hardware unless they managed to fuck up the port somehow
except VNs which are comfy to read on Vita in bed

>>381424124
>And whats wrong with indies that are good like Guacamelee, Spelunky, Risk of Rain, BoI, etc?

It's only fine if it's on the 3ds. It doesn't count if it's on a sony console. Enjoy your no games.

>>381424253
I've noticed slight FPS drops you mentioned when aoeing large groups of enemies, but they were pretty much identical between Vita and PS4 versions. So I assume it's an engine problem given that previous Vanillaware titles had the same issue

>>381424124
>And whats wrong with indies that are good like Guacamelee, Spelunky, Risk of Rain, BoI, etc?
well you've included games that everyone and their aunt has already played (limbo, super meat boy, rayman origins, terraria, spelunky, machinarium, hotline miami), those are never essentials for a system when they have been available for years on every single other system and pc

>>381424624
Why do you assume they have played it?
I didnt play any of those on PC and played them on the Vita for the first time.

Besides, yes the might have played them, but what if they played them long ago and want to replay them? What if they just like them so much they are happy they have them on a portable machine?

Dont be a faggot and just hate for the sake of hating.

>>381424124
>Which game is shit?
as for shit games
uncharted
new little king's story
assassin's creed
dokuro
edf
god eater/freedom wars/toukiden
little big planet
phantasy star nova
touch my katamary
i'm not saying these are horrible but t b h you seem to have listed EVERY SINGLE semi notable game ever released on vita. when i think of essentials i think of exclusive games you get a system for. like bloodborne for ps4, mario galaxy for wii, etc.

>>381424230
Are these all going to be impossible on the old piracy-friendly firmware?

If you only care about psn games and none of the disc-only games, you can get a pstv and use the ps4 controller for certain controls.

>>381420569
Play thru game only seeing mandatory pages. A few hours in I start reading the lore about the the locations and boss monsters. The game gets better for it.

>>381425407
talk to the little fairy friend, she knows ways to make money

>>381424884
lol whats its like having shit taste?

All those games except MAYBE, NLKS are 8/10 or better.

But you are probably just trolling if you say EDF, God Eater, Phantasy Star, Katamary and so are shit.

>>381426123
Yeah, that part really impressed me. It was kind of strange that you had to look up the neat references and stories in the pages for areas or monsters, but I guess that was a compromise for kids with short attention spans.
I'd love to see a sequel, but that's never going to happen.
