Top Ten Must Have PS Vita RPGs 

I will always remember the time when sony abandoned this amazing handheld. F for PS Vita

It would be helpful if you kept the name of the game you're talking about on screen the entire time you're talking about it. That way if I didn't understand the name or missed you saying it, I can just look at small text in the corner of the screen telling me the name of the game.

Honorable Mention: Tokyo Xanadu Ys 8: Lacrimosa of Dana God Eater Resurrection God Eater 2 Rage Burst The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel 1 and 2

Ah, Persona 4 Golden...one of the top 3 most memorable experiences in my entire gaming career, going all the way back to the original NES.

Excellent video, glad you included soul sacrifice. One of my favorites that I always come back to.

I really loved Ys 8. It is not just one of the best looking games in Vita, but also a great JRPG experience on the system!

Great list (especially kudos for mentioning Oreshika and Tales of Hearts R), but I'd also recomnend Ys VIII, Tokyo Xanadu, Trails of Cold Steel 1 and 2, Atelier series, Odin Sphere Leifthrasir, Exist Archive, Summon Night VI, God Wars, Utawarerumono series, Fate Extella: The Umbral Star, Grand Kingdom, Lost Dimension.

I have all this games! They are really awesome! Excellent list, thks for the love for Psvita!

Great list by you and people in the comments section! Really is tough to put out a top 10 rpg's for the Vita withso many great titles in the genre.

Great list overall, but I would argue that Freedom Wars is more of an Action Adventure Game where your stats are determined by your equipment rather than leveling up your Sinner (Soul Sacrifice Delta gets around that but having the Save/Sacrifice/Fate mechanic level up your Sorcerer's base stats). Personally, I'd swap in Trails of Cold Steel 1/2 for Freedom Wars, and Ys 8 for Memories of Celceta, though I am glad to see that MoC isn't getting crapped on by default, as seems to be kinda vogue at this time. Also, Muramasa Complete Collection rather than the plain version of the game, since it has roughly double the content, with 4 different characters (each with their own short storyline, multiple endings, and unique bosses and playstyles) that weren't in the Wii version of the game.

love ur vids man , u showed me a lot of hidden gems

Great list. I liked Oreshika's mechanics but the quest driven nature of it ended up turning me of. Freedom Wars and soul sacrifice i really liked which is weird since both borrow elements from monster hunter and monster hunter itself hasn't managed to grab me.The shiren games are some that i really want to try but i never manage to find the time or the space in my card to do so

Muramasa rebirth has one of my favorite artstyle and the Dlcs were really beautiful

Going to GameStop and other second hand video game stores hunting for Vita games I don't already own and look interesting is one of my favorite hobbies these days.

Another good list (you've made me want to check Freedom Wars out). I'm noticing how often you use the phrase "truly special" after a few videos though. It starts feeling like a placeholder statement, after a while.

Great list. Only 2 of the games on here I'd ever heard of and those were the Final Fantasy and Persona ports which kinda don't count. Subbed.

This list is missing some of the best ones like Toukiden 2, Ys 8, Odin sphere, God eater etc

Gracias por el video! Muy bueno y like como siempre Thank you for the video. A good video as always and a great list of PS Vita! 😁😁😁

Persona 4 golden will always be the number one 😎

Odinsphere Leifthrasir, Dragon's Crown. Both by vanillaware, both gorgeous. Odinsphere has a delightfully sad story whilr Dragon's Crown simulates a world like a ttrpg.

I need to play some of these. Own them all but haven't had time to play them. Oreshika is one that really caught my attention and I need to finally play Soul Sacrifice. Btw, no Y's VIII!?!? Or is this video old and just rereleased!?! (Seems like an old list... Plus no Cold Steel?!)

Great list,I would only change Ys memory of celcetia with ys8;the ys8 is much better

If Sony makes another portable system.They should name it Phoenix.

Still have hope that soul sacrifice will get a sequel on console. Oh man a ps5 soul sacrifice sequel would be amazing

8:54 That pitch-shifted Like a Dream Come True hurts 😰

OKookooook! You have a tone of grate videos!!! Just subscribed... I love your taste, but I'm lost I wanna play a great rpg and want to know which one is your favourite rpg, the number 1 of all. Untill now mine favourite is mother 3 on the gba followed by the ds version of chrono trigger followed by a link to the passt for the snes. Which is yours? I have a gbc, gba, snes, Ps1, ps2 and a dsi. Please let me know

So glad tales of hearts made it on here. Super underrated

I actually bought my vita because of muramasa rebirth bought the special edition as someone who'd beaten it on wii before I even had a vita loved that game so much of love a sequel

My plan next year is to just play Vita RPGs for all of my gaming time !

Subscribed 👍

Loved the tales games and was glad you mentioned tales of hearts. I'll have to go soul sacrifice delta a try!

No trails of cold steel 1 and 2. *DISAPPOINTED*

Ty I added oreshikia, never heard of it but it's now on my vita

I'm a cultured man, I see vita stuff, and I comment & subscribe😁

I owned all these, but I haven't got around to play oreshika lol. These are all good and somewhat unique. However, "Must Have" is debatable. There are numerous of rpg on the vita that shared similar theme and concept to these pick, but they done it better and overall the better game imo.

Not gonna lie here I just got the ps vita so I could play persona 4 golden

I said it before. I say it now. Persona 4 Golden alone is good reason to buy a Vita.

Love the vid my the vita live

Besides some naughty content that may upset some, I think that Criminal Girls is an entertaining dungeon crawler and turn-based jrpg that is worth a try. I've enjoyed playing it, the combat sys is particular and good, the chibi chara design is well done and the story has its moments.

Solid list, though stuff like _Final Fantasy X HD_ isn't something I would personally count as a "Vita RPG". _Muramasa Rebirth_ and such work as updated versions of titles available exclusively to the platform. There are a few other titles the comments are mentioning, but a fair number of them weren't exclusive to the Vita at the time or as of the release of the video, have been released on more platforms. Still a solid list of good games, I'd just personally consider anything multi-platform to be something of an honorable mention.

No dragons crown? That game deserves a spot over some of the other ones here.

I'm always astounded how these videos leave out Trails of Cold Steel. It's simply amazing.

I sub just found your channel

Monster Hunter could've had a legitimate competitor if Soul Sacrifice had continued. So much time, energy, and money wasted on Mighty No. 9.

still have my launch vita with tons of games :)

If you've included Muramasa, Odin's Sphere should be here too.

I tried getting into Oreshika, but I didn't like how you automatically lose your character after spending so much time with them, and thus you are required to make a new one. Muramasa Rebirth is great, but be mindful of the dlcs that you would need to get in order to 100% the game (as well as getting the platinum). The Ashimaru DLC (the one with the ninja) kind of sucks due to his weapons.

..... You never disappoint

I love the way he says unique

Child of Light deserves a spot on this list

what? no Odin sphere? :l, great list though.. :)

That stupid fish was harder than the final boss in P4Golden.

I was hoping for a game more along the lines of Shenmue or GTA3 any recommendations? Thanks

My favorite on the Vita were Romancing SaGa 2 and 3.

oh Sony why you abandoned Vita

Oreshika looks amazing

No trail of cold steel games? Aight imma headout

Marvel VS Capcom 3 on the go is my choice for Vita

Oreshika really should be translated to "Over my dead body."

Shame you missed AR Nosurge it was one of the best spinoff games on vita

I love the tales series

Can anyone tell me the name of the song at 0:20 when he's talking about disgaea 4?

Ys 8 skyrocketed to my top 5 games of all time

Hmm i was wondring if Atlus Launch a full remaster of Persona 3 FES... Will it beat P4 Golden?

Persona 4 Golden is the best gaming experience playing a game that I've ever had.

Tales of Hears R is probably the best action rpg on the system along with Ys 4 and Ys 8 Very good combat system

Vita was the most underrated RPG machine. Including the ps1 collections you could get every numbered Final Fantasy from 1 to X-2 on the PS-store (not to mention things like Tactics and World of FF). only system that had such a collection.

In the thumbnail is that supposed to be Karna from YS?

Freedom Wars a rpg? Muramasa is more platformer or side scrolling hack and slash with a lvling up mechanic. So many other other good rpgs could filled up those spots, as well as Soul Sacrifice shouldn’t end in there either.

Persona 4 Golden on this list? Not a surprise. Freedom Wars and Soul Sacrifice Delta on this list? Now, that is a surprise. Rarely see anyone give these two games the credit they're due.

tales of Hearts R evolution i found to be the better version, as it was the same game, but instead used 2d spirites, which i found suited the game better. a shame really that it never came outside of japan.

Would be great to list the name of the games in the comments

Eu n sabia disso , meu psvita tá na gaveta desde 2014, vamos brincar

My fave is and always will be Digimon. Heck they have both my waifu and husbando in that game😂😂

I like Ys, but I don't wanna play it on the Vita. It broke my PSP (spamming a button to attack turned that button to mush). dont want that to happen on my vita.

While I personally love Persona 4 (see what I did there). I cannot believe you didn't mention the Trails of Cold steel games (legend of heroes). Or trails in the sky part 2. Or even Ys 8?!

I still love vita got mostly all the ffs ps1 and some other fun games

Wow I didn't even knew freedom wars existed

When you have a modded Vita like myself it breaths a whole new life into the system. I have 4 out of the 10 listed, muramasa rebirth is fantastic. Can't believe you didn't list legend of hero's series though

Is it bad I never play these games! ;-;

idk about shiren wanderer, game system is literally PMD

can i have a website where i can get these games roms ?

I want a goddamn remake of advance wars or a continuation for all consoles. I give devs this order. AND VALKYRIA CHRONICLES CONTINUATION GODDAMN IT SEGA.

Hey, a little suggestion for use of skipping and highlight spots in your videos, can you please leave the name of the game throughout the highlight video of the game on screen?

Where’s Legend of Heroes Trails of Cold Steel 1 and 2?

legend of heroes series valkyria chronicles toukiden

YS VIII Lacrimosa of Dana will always be number 1 for me number 2 is P4G

No YS lacrimosa of dana?

1-10 Persona 4 Golden

If this got any more generic Justin Bieber and Katy Perry would collab about it. Several good games missing as well as a few questionable titles you’ve included (yes sadly I’ve played them all).

Lacrimosa of Dana is like ten times better than Memories of Celceta. 😕

TYE-dus, they even say his name in the game.

Its suck that sony shut down "destiny of spirit" web game for no reason

Half is a junk. And what about Criminal girls? Neptunia? Lost dimension? Mind zero? Demon gaze? Stranger of sword city?...

Kinda sucks that these are games that I'm sure can run on the PSP with no issues, very few games that I know of use or push the potential of the console

Hope Sony makes a ps vita 2 or something

What a missed opportunity to have PlayStation Premium downloads with psx psp and ps2 on the vita be supported in 2022.

How i wish there was a version of dessidia012 n vita .

psvita have ghost game ?

Dungeon travelers 2
