The PS Vita has the fewest exclusive games out of all handheld consoles, but it manages to offer an impressive catalogue in spite of that! Sony did put out quite a lot of high-budget titles, Japanese developers offered a lot of exclusive RPGs, while many other franchises also jumped with a few exclusive spin-offs for the system.
Sadly, a huge part of PS Vita’s exclusive games have only been released in Japan, and don’t even offer English interfaces, therefore this list won’t dive too much into them.
I’m a huge fan of platform exclusives myself, as I can’t really find a reason to play a ported game on PS Vita – or any other console for that matter – except if the port is better of course (which is rare).
So without further ado, these are the games I definitely suggest you check out as a PS Vita owner, in order to get the most out of your console!
