Vita may mean life, but it’s clear that the PlayStation Vita is now dead and buried. That wasn’t for lack of trying, though. Even when pitted against the best 3DS games, the Vita’s impressive library was way ahead of its time. It took what made the PlayStation Portable so great and doubled down on it by making it more powerful, with a better screen and that all-important second analog stick.
There is a lot of crossover between the best PS3 games, best PS4 games, and Vita games since many were cross-platform titles. Still, the Vita had plenty of amazing exclusives to call its own. Even some multiplatform games felt more at home on the handheld. Despite an untimely death, the Vita had some of the best games of all time on it, so let’s celebrate the life of the Vita by looking at just some of those games.

Persona 4 Golden is also the perfect game to play before jumping into
Persona 5, which is available on PS4 and has received similar acclaim. Persona 4 Golden: E3 Trailer
