4:37 Oh my God... I've been searching for that game for over a decade. I'm actually crying right now. Thank you so much!
No Dragon's Crown? I am disappointed. But I'm happy that Odin Sphere was there; amazing game.
With só many JRPGs on the Vita, it's a Hard list 😊
Just finished Ys Memories of Celcetta. What a game! Your video helped me decide to add Atelier to the collection & playlist next. Great video bro 👌

Rafael Bruno I personally would disagree, I don't know if I would say the worst characters. Persona 1 I felt like was lacking for some characters overall "character". But I absolute thing p4g is better, for me anyway. Kanji and Yosuke have made me laugh so hard, and I thought the villain was better. Way better, felt like p5 villain had been done already. (Not the main villain but the character they mentioned in the beginning who had sold you out.) Also I liked how p4g you could actually just miss the true ending. There were like 2 endings that you could finish the game and think that was it, but you have to make sure you keep going and figure it out. My favorite in order would be P4G, P3FES, and then P5.

Mike BLUU i understand your opinion.
The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel, Tokyo Xanadu, Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth, and Persona 4 Golden are really fun .
Soul Sacrifice Delta, Oreshika T.B., and Muramasa are by far the best games on Vita for me. Easy 9.5/10. Very nearly flawless. And FUN!!!
Keep PS Vita alive Sony! These videos are great. Great video! Can we get a Top western titles?
I was late to the vita, got one 2 years ago, it’s become my number 1 console, I feel like I’ll be playing games on their for years to come, so many great and length titles !!
I missed Dragon's Crown there. VanillaWare's JRPG Trinity of SuperGames should always be there. I was also surprised not to see any God Eater on the list, even if it was the second part. For the rest, very good list!!
I was really surprised by how much I liked Tokyo Xanadu. Looking for more games to buy, as they tend to be pretty cheap and there's some great ones!

Opino que estas empresas no hacen nada por los jugadores, ellos se tiran el aventón a ver si cuela, y según la reacción del gran publico, reculan y dicen que escuchan a sus usuarios porque los quieren mucho. Pero si nadie chilla se cargan todo y dejan a la gente mamando con sus consolas convertidas en simples pisapapeles.

Hello! A PlayScore is a standard rating we created that aggregates critic and gamer reviews. So we average out critic reviews and gamer reviews in each platform from many sources, and combining them into one unified rating. There's a bit more mathematics into it, but that's the basics. Hope that helps! :)
