Here’s Why The PS Vita Is One Of My Favourite Consoles Of All-Time

Alright, I’m going to kick off proceedings with candour and say this: Sony’s plucky underdog handheld, the PS Vita is one of my favourite consoles of all-time. Phew, I said it. That’s a hefty weight off of my mind.

It’s A JRPG Powerhouse

Like I mentioned earlier, due to the success of handhelds in the east, many spots on the PS Vita’s release schedule are populated with Japanese developed games. If you’re a fan of the genre, the PS Vita has a rich, extensive library of both mainstream and niche JRPGs that fit perfectly on a handheld format.

You’ve got brilliant oddball dungeon-crawlers, such as Demon Gaze (which is a personal favourite of mine), Dungeon Travelers 2 and Stranger of Sword City, to more popular mainstream JRPGs, such as Persona 4: Golden, Ys: Memories of Celceta, World of Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy X-2Tales of Hearts R, Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir and The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel I and II, to name but a few.

In all honesty, it’s actually super hard to keep up with all the great games coming out on the system. The PS Vita is a JRPG powerhouse and should absolutely be on your radar if you have even a smidgen of passion for eastern-developed role-playing games.
