Nobody told Sony that the Vita was for life, not just for Christmas. A larger Vita 2 with an OLED screen the size of the Switch would be more than welcome. PS5 remote and cross play... The possibilities are endless. Killzone: Mercenary and Dragon's Crown were the best games I played. Me and my 6 year old niece were playing Killzone: Mercenary and she said "We should stop playing this game now." "Why?" "It's too much fun!"
I see Dead or Alive's Hitomi grace the thumbnail and I already know this video is likely to please me. I never did end up getting a Vita but I do many an enticing game that had me curious, particularly graphically. Your explanation of why the various game's graphics are so impressive at moments such as 1:12 and 2:47 is in itself impressive. You do a wonderful job highlighting the graphical effects with a smooth flow to your points, whilst still giving the game's a decent overall coverage. 12:55 - Those jumping strikes in Shinobido 2 looked awesome. The Hud is also somehow busy and yet not cluttered; it's a real nice design to it. 14:17 - Gosh; I love the outlines of the enemies here. The style is so cool. Those moving background pieces are also eye-catching. 15:39 - There we go; the poster girl for this video. I had a great time with DOA5, so naturally a Vita port had me intrigued and would have been a definite purchase if I had ever got one. It's amazing how well each DOA entry holds up on a visual perspective.
And you can see her even better with the Vita's DoA Xtreme 3, if you catch my drift. All jokes aside, that was another impressive port since it was technically a 2016 PS4 game.
@@Manic_Panic The Vita got DOA Xtreme 3 as well? I know it came out for Switch and PS4, but didn't realise the Vita got it as well. I do remember the PSP got a DOA Xtreme game but I don't recall that being very fondly received, even by fans of the other entries.
@@grinbrothers It did but it's slightly downgraded. No tanlines and no wardrobe malfunction. Other than that, it plays exactly the same as the PS4 version.
Another thing to consider is that DOA 5 doesn’t run at native’s Vita screen resolution, but that’s something you can solve using the vitagrafx homebrew plugin, it looks even more amazing when running at full native resolution.
So many games that I fully agree with and have. Virtua Tennis 4…now there’s a game I spent countless hours playing on the Vita. Still waiting for a new installment for Switch! Nice shoutout for Shinobido 2! Such a hidden gem for the Vita. Dead or Alive 5 Plus really is a superb looking Vita game too like you stated. Again, you truly highlighted key titles for the category. Excellent video as always man!
It's such a shame that Freedom Wars, Killzone and Soul Sacrifice servers are already shut down. Those games are crazy fun to play online. Long live the Vita!
The Vita will always be one of the best handhelds as long as you softmod it. Homebrew, ports of legendary titles like Vice City and San Andreas... it's insane what it can do.
I think tearaway is another game thats absolutely stunning. And the way it implements the vitas mechanics is also amazing. Despite the gfx upgrade I think it's better than the ps4 version because of how immersive the Vita mechanics are
Love ninja gaiden sigma plus one of the hardest game I platinumed on vita, good thing my vita take all the beating while playing this game and it's still working as of now. Love my vita still hoping for vita 2.
Gonna have to disagree with borderlands 2 because last I knew one of the character classes is straight up broken. They broke Zero in one of the patches and it runs terribly.
some of those are compatible with vitagrapix. ninja gaiden 2 drops resolution in busy areas by default. with an overclocked vita and vitagrapix on, it will maintian vita's maximum resolution all the time. vitagrapix made a lot of games look way better than before.
PSVR sells 5 million units and gets support from Sony to this day, but when the PSVITA sells 16 million units it’s gets dropped by Sony a couple years after launch smh 🤦🏻♂️
No updates anymore? And what about the store? I mean, I seemingly can still access the PS3 PlayStation Store on my device, so I'd be confused if that wouldn't work on the PSVita anymore :x
If they make a vita 2, I want it to be a ground breaker that the original was. I don't want to some watered down version the way released those crap Nokia phones. I want cameras like the original, 5G WiFi, OLED, switch 2 graphics. The options also are incredible. Emails. Photos. Media. Throw on TH-cam and Spotify and its a winner.
Thank you for the video. I still love my Vita, such a great portable witih many really nice games (some of them with impressive graphics). EDIT The games I love the most are: Gravity Rush Deception IV New Little King's Story Saludos.
He should play the games before making these lists. No one ever would say Borderlands is stable, ever, if they played it. Needs oc to hit 30 most of the time. Even then isn't
I still love my vita. Ninja Gaiden 2 is the most impressive of them all I've played so far. (: So glad I got that hori adapter for easy L2 and R2 control before it skyrocketed.
Yo not kidding I was hovering over freedom wars on the pkgj app on my vita like 30 seconds before Starting this video and the first game on the list just happened to be freedom wars how funny 😂😂
Vita still my fav handheld until now, i think this little machine still can play some indies games like on switch, but Sony is kill this awesome handheld...
How much did gearbox pay you to tell us borderlands 2 on vita is any good. It runs like shiiiitttttttttttttttt. It only looks good when nobody moves and nothing is happening.
BL2 is amazingly duckibg game in this and all consoles and pc. I so much love BL3 playing every day third time walktrought by another char. Likessss for ya
I was actually wondering before I clicked if Ys 8 would be on here, nice. Looks good for the Vita yeah, just a shame it sucks gameplay wise compared to the other versions (I couldn't play it for long due to how "off" it felt)... DoA 5 is a fun game though.
Hi everyone I have a ps vita and I have god eater rage burst on it and I want people to play with multiplayer so if you wanna play comment to this post I just started and I'm at story 8 so if you wanna play comment to this soon
freedom war is a lazy game imo. and its insulting I had to pay 50$ and there werent any english audio voice over. I had to read everything they were saying. nobody talked about its obvious flaws. i uninstalled it so fast. its cost is way too expensive.
I agree with you 100% man. Too many Japanese only games on the Vita. I'm just thankful RE Revelations 2 had a 100% english version along with the Japanese. Too bad even in 2024 the english price is 2-3X the Japanese. We all know where these games are made and which franchises have the dough to port it to USA but don't care to admit it. RE Rev 2 stands up to any game in this video IMHO.
Oh the Vita.. what a sweet little portable.
One of the best!
@@thatvideogamesshow too bad it died before it shined.
Its completely illogical why that system failed. It was amazing. It stands up to games today

Would love to see a successor!
What for? Sony will make the same mistake. Abandoned it and blame it on Steam Deck.
Try GPD Win 4
@@shazmanbound1496 they want to make a new portable now, but exclusively for PS5 remote play. talk about Sony taking the L's yet again.
this certainly aged poorly
The vita has been gaining popularity these past few weeks and im all for it
I still play my Vita so I appreciate videos like this. I like being reminded of some of the great games still available for it. Thanks!

I'm always happy to see someone bring up the Vita. If you have one, do yourself self a favor and mod it.
Look, no shade, Borderlands 2 Vita was rougher than sandpaper, after Switch, there's no way I'll ever go back to this slideshow.
Coming back after Steam Deck, holy fuck.
i urge everyone to buy YS8 lod. I'm not into RPG's but this one caught my eye. and I don't regret it. its perfect on every department.
When I saw the title, the first game I thought of was Freedom Wars, and there it was, the first one you mentioned. I miss that game SO MUCH.
Same here, was such a solid game!
It's such a shame that Freedom Wars, Killzone and Soul Sacrifice servers are already shut down. Those games are crazy fun to play online.
Long live the Vita!
I had such a great time playing killzone online for the vita. I even got a full deck for both the the Helghast and the Vektans.
@@yege121 me too
The Vita will always be one of the best handhelds as long as you softmod it. Homebrew, ports of legendary titles like Vice City and San Andreas... it's insane what it can do.
That Shinobido 2 looks a lot like a tribute to Tenchu games....
It may be the perfect time to finally buy a beautiful PS Vita ❤
man Unit 13 was my childhood. could've been my first ever platinum too... if not for the co-op trophy lmao
11:35 looks like you couldnt contain your laughter
I'm currently playing Dragon Quest Builders on the Vita, my god it looks and plays incredible on the OLED !!!
great job, your videos really helps to know amazing games in an oldie but lovely console, thanks :3
Thanks for watching 🙂
I think tearaway is another game thats absolutely stunning. And the way it implements the vitas mechanics is also amazing. Despite the gfx upgrade I think it's better than the ps4 version because of how immersive the Vita mechanics are
It's good to see you back, thanks for another list.
Fr
Borderlands 2 on the Vita is a absolut Nightmare. It Crashes the whole system every 5 minute.
Never crashed mine
Amazing video dude!!! Epic! ❤️🤩
Thanks man!
Owning a Vita and a PS TV is a must
Why a PS TV? ISNT THAT JUST A VITA? Can u hook up a ps vita to a tv?
Slightly off topic, but the hermie hopperhead soundtrack playing in the background is giving me nostalgia
Borderlands 2 was terrible on the Vita, I think it was a mistake porting to the handheld.
First game I got and have not played it in 5 years. Awful!
The PS vita was so impressive especially for its time. Bringing a truly home console experience to the handheld before the switch did it.
I didn't know that Shinobido 2 existed. Looks fantastic. Thank you for enlightening me.
Glad you found something new to try out!
@@thatvideogamesshow Yeah but Soul Sacrifice Delta looks way better IMHO.
Love ninja gaiden sigma plus one of the hardest game I platinumed on vita, good thing my vita take all the beating while playing this game and it's still working as of now. Love my vita still hoping for vita 2.
I'm a simple person
I see a Vita-related video, i like
PS: Vita best portable ❤️
I’ll second that, such a great handheld!
More people should talk about Freedom Wars 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😤
Ok now that you have listed Bordelands 2 as graphically i cant take you seriously, do you even play the games you mention on your videos ?
I finished bl 2 on the vita and had a great time. Yeah there are some bugs but it's not unplayable
That Unit 13 games actually looks like it would be fun.
I vaguely remember Borderlands 2 being out on the Vita too.
Gonna have to disagree with borderlands 2 because last I knew one of the character classes is straight up broken. They broke Zero in one of the patches and it runs terribly.
Great video bro, I love my Vita
I was waiting on this one!
Hope you enjoy it!

7:56 His fur is gray not blue. 😬
Sly Cooper is really PlayStation experience on PS VITA, it's feel like you really play PlayStation console quality game on your hand.
Unit 13 was an absolutely fantastic 3rdPS on the Vita!! I played the absolute shit out of it!! and it never gets old!!
PSVR sells 5 million units and gets support from Sony to this day, but when the PSVITA sells 16 million units it’s gets dropped by Sony a couple years after launch smh 🤦🏻♂️

Secret Technique : Comment to remember to check list later
Very good love your videos
Keep up the good work
Can't wait for the next playstation video.
Thanks Abdullah 🙂 got some in the works!

The way HMD released Nokia phones*
Buttery smooth!
take a shot everytime he says "OLED SCREEN" lmao
I advise against this haha
I didnt know there was a sequence to shinobido you always surprise me, awesome list
Glad you found something new!
I still love playing Dead or Alive 5+ on my Vita.
nah because bro went on longer about virtual tennis than any other game
can i ask how to put psp titles on the homescreen i saw kh birthbysleep in your intro thanks
Thank you for the video.
I still love my Vita, such a great portable witih many really nice games (some of them with impressive graphics).
EDIT
The games I love the most are:
Gravity Rush
Deception IV
New Little King's Story
Saludos.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hope for a Neo Geo or commodore Amiga one in the future.
He should play the games before making these lists. No one ever would say Borderlands is stable, ever, if they played it. Needs oc to hit 30 most of the time. Even then isn't
Damn 30fps is elite to anyone over 30 years old. We grew up on 8bit consoles mane
I still love my vita. Ninja Gaiden 2 is the most impressive of them all I've played so far. (: So glad I got that hori adapter for easy L2 and R2 control before it skyrocketed.
Borderlands 2 always freezes up on me
Dude... Borderlands 2 runs like shit on the vita, even COD is a better experience.
To this day I still want DOA5 on the PS VITA.
If you can find it on the cheap it’s well worth grabbing!
@@thatvideogamesshow I have a physical with case and will NEVER sell it.
Underrated psvita
If ur gonna play any ninja gaiden game on vita ur better off using an overclock application cuz ur gonna need it
Wish there was a souls game or bloodborne type game on vita.
Toukiden should have been nioh portable instead.
I cannot believe the Vita failed and Sony left the handheld market. Dark times. Killzone Mercenary was amazing
The thumbnail 💀
I only care if the games are buttery smooth! :)
Yo not kidding I was hovering over freedom wars on the pkgj app on my vita like 30 seconds before Starting this video and the first game on the list just happened to be freedom wars how funny 😂😂
Vita still my fav handheld until now, i think this little machine still can play some indies games like on switch, but Sony is kill this awesome handheld...
I’m hoping they update the 64 emulator for the Vita so we get more compatible games to run. All Rare and Star Wars games still don’t work
A game that wanted me to buy a PSVITA was Gravity Rush. The art direction of this game is very underrated.
Love that game so much. Would love to see a third one on the PS5!
@@thatvideogamesshow Yes Please!
Viva la Vita 💪🏻🇦🇷🍻
Ys 8 was such a good game
vita man da best handheld
Deserved way more success!
Ya know your game library sucks when one of its best games is a tennis games
Cool comment. But that game looks good I just never played it because tennis is not fun to me.
@@htechdance I was definitely drunk when I posted that check it out even if you don’t like tennis
@@htechdanceop didn't read the assignment.
great games
Great games, I miss my vita
Thanks for watching man 🙂
Ys VIII was a very fun game, though I played the PS4 version.
If you mod your vita you can enhance the graphics of all these games
Can you please tell me how to do that?
I have 250+ physical titles for vita.... best mini Sony machine 👌
How much did gearbox pay you to tell us borderlands 2 on vita is any good. It runs like shiiiitttttttttttttttt. It only looks good when nobody moves and nothing is happening.
the title of the video is "graphically impressive"
I know it's a really dumb nitpick. Whenever you say It looks great on the oled screen is a bit odd considering the intro is of a 2000 model.
Is There Anyone Between the Ages of 20 to 50 Making A TH-cam Channel About the Future of PlayStation Games?
BL2 is amazingly duckibg game in this and all consoles and pc. I so much love BL3 playing every day third time walktrought by another char. Likessss for ya

Agree there, I much prefer playing the home console version.
Ys 8 is the FECKING BEST!!!!
One of the greats!
Lol borderlands 2 is pushing it the game looks rough af and has terrible performance
same with shinobido 2 since it looks like an upscaled ps2 game
I need a bigger sd card😂
Borderlands on the vita is absolutly horrible. The game is great. The framerate is not stabile. Its unplayable...
you NEED TO MENTION WIPEOUT 2048
