Not Enough Games on Vita? 50 Incredible Vita Games You Can Play Right Now

The PlayStation Vita is an under appreciated piece of hardware, many gamers are quick to write the Vita off, usually with the common phrase of "It Has No Games", which simply isn't true. From its ever-growing list of AAA games, to the boatload of remarkable 'indie' titles, it's arguably the best device for playing games on the go. To any Vita naysayers out there, here's 50 great PlayStation Vita games you can play right now.

I own 36 of those. I would also add the second danganronpa and tales of hearts r to the list. I have a couple games not released in the west that would make my list as well, God eater 2, one piece musiu 2 and steins gate. Even though it just released I think Oreshika also deserves a place on that list. The vita has an amazing line up of truly unique games. I am not sure which I love more between my 3ds and my vita.

dolphin_supreme3316d ago

i was just about to mention tales. its such a great series! wish it got more love here in the west. id really like to see tales of zestiria here in the west...

Rockets123316d ago

Games I would add to this list include: Tales of Hearts R, Hatsune Miku Project Diva F/F 2nd, any MLB game, Sword Art Online, Ys Memories of Celceta.
Of course some of those games require a specific interest in the genre, so it might not be fore everyone.

On a side note, I have never gotten into playing most indie games, so my question is which ones would you guys recommend I start with?

Youngindy213316d ago

I don't know why people always forget about Hatsune Miku Project Diva F 2nd. That is a pretty good PS Vita game. I bought it on a whim when it was on sale on PSN and I haven't regretted the purchase. It is such an addicting music game. Sadly most people won't play it because they can't get past the look of the game. I'm not even into Japanese anime or any of that stuff and I enjoyed it.

SamPao3316d ago

Start with the ones on ps+ :)
Helldivers is awesome
Velocity is great
Olliolli is pretty cool(played today)

Rockets123316d ago

Not understanding the disagrees all these posts have, but whatever lol.
That's a good point to start with the ones on PS+. I have never subscribed (I wouldn't take advantage of the features as often, so not worth it at the moment), but maybe I should.

SamPao3316d ago

yeah I don't understand either ^^

ps+ has been absolutely worth the money. there are some great gems on it that I wouldn't have experienced if I wasn't subscribed!

admiralvic3316d ago

"Games I would add to this list include..."

Maybe its me, but I find it amazing (depressing?) that even with 50 titles you can have notable titles left out.While I could understand excluding Toukiden (though I would argue it's a better game, save story, than Soul Sacrifice or Freedom Wars) because you didn't like it, but how can you leave out Disgaea? Disagree 3/4 both had amazing gameplay, suit the "pick up and play" style of a portable system, had a lot of content (not to mention the fact both of these games had all the DLC and new content, adding a substantial amount of new content) and easily one of the best games I've played on the Vita.

"On a side note, I have never gotten into playing most indie games, so my question is which ones would you guys recommend I start with?"

Depends what you're looking for really. Indie games tend to deliver in one category and are lacking in another category. Like I enjoyed Rogue Legacy's gameplay, but it wasn't the most varied game around, nor did it have an interesting story, a diverse selection of enemies and such. This can be said of most of them, so before I can really say "oh man, you got to totally play Woah Dave! (Note! No one ever needs to play Woah Dave!)," I would need to know what exactly you're looking for or want in a game.

miyamoto3316d ago (Edited 3316d ago )

If you really want console experience on PS Vita/TV play Lego Ninjago Shadow of Ronin and Toukiden Kiwami.
Its jampacked with cool gamwleplay, graphics and mean boss fights!

denijt3316d ago

Great list! And than to think there are so many more worthwhile games on the system that weren't even mentioned. Long live the Vita!

Phoenix763316d ago

I would of included C.O.U.N.T.E.R Spy as well

pyramidshead3316d ago

fantastic game. Love the 70s spy vibe. Great gameplay despite being simple. Was a god send to get that tranq gun.

Currently have 70+ on my Vita, thank god for the 64gb card I imported.

Nerdmaster3316d ago

The sad thing for me is that considering the exclusives, only a couple of them I really liked to play (even Muramasa, which I really wanted to play on Wii, ended up being disappointing). And the multiplatform ones are either not that fun for my taste, or they're made to be played on a big screen (like the Telltale games, Killzone, Uncharted...).

To be fair, the games on this list that I actually like are incredible (like Persona 4 Golden and Zero Escape)

Forget Gravity Rush movie, give us another GR game!

porkChop109d ago

I didn't even know a movie was coming. If they can get the visuals and everything right I'll watch it.

Barlos109d ago

I didn't either, until this article. I'm also surprised, since GR was a commercial flop. Seems weird that they'd want to invest money into making it into a film.

I think the games are great though, especially on Vita. I think the move to PS4 killed the experience a little, but I'd still like to see a new one.

1Victor109d ago

I didn’t know it was in development ether but it makes sense after they saw the first doctor strange movie and the far from home fight, if it’s like that’s it’s going to be one of those Oscar nominees

Cacabunga109d ago

GR movie and shutting Japan Studio.. so stupid

porkChop109d ago

@Cacabunga

Oh yeah... Well there goes any hope for a new game. Shuttering Japan Studio was a really bad decision.

purple101109d ago

Surely you’d think if the movie is coming so is another game

And I couldn’t be happier.

Only played the demo of gr2 but let me say it’s one of the most artistic and inventive new games. Ps5 will power gr3 to new heights
Fingers crossed

Made my day hearing this.

Finally, something innovative

Redemption-64109d ago

GR2 flopped, which would they make a new game? A movie has more appeal and a successful hit at the bix office, could lead to a new game for the franchise

ChasterMies109d ago

Ok, I’ll stop sitting on Gravity Rush 2. It’s been in my library for only 8 years.

Chocoburger109d ago

Play Gravity Rush Remastered first if you haven't already, the stories are linked together. GR 2 is a fantastic game, it has a lot of stuff to see and do. In fact I have purposefully not completed the game 100% because I simply didn't want the game to end. I still have some trophies to collect, and a whole free story DLC chapter to play through.

Gravity Rush 3 would be amazing! But the team that made parts 1 and 2 were shut down, so I don't expect it to happen. This was Jim Ryan's biggest sin of all, shutting down PlayStation Japan Studios. What a shame.

FinalFantasyFanatic109d ago

Why not both? I really like the games and was disappointed we didn't get a third game to finish off the story, but I wouldn't mind a movie either if it's well done. Maybe it'll drum up enough interest to get us that third game.

gold_drake109d ago

damn that is aaalot of ppl

id rather have another Gravity Rush game than a movie tbh

DarXyde109d ago

Same. This series really resonates with my gaming spirit. I love these games so much that I got four platinums out of two games. I was always dreading that we would never get another game after Japan Studio's closure, but I'm feeling hopeful in them not giving up on the franchise with this move. My guess is that they're going to use this as a funding point

MrNinosan109d ago

That is the same amount as daily loading screens... never mind

I'll have to make this a mission the next time I blow through Tokyo.

Hopefully soon, given the limited availability.

Seraphim289d ago

send me one while you're at it. I mean what's better than Whiskey and Persona? A cigar with the two, and that would be perfection personified.
