My vita arrived today. So far all I've played is Virtua Tennis 4 and the Wipeout demo. First thoughts: Aside from wipeout's load times, nothing so far has felt limited by it being a portable console. Both games look just as good (or near enough) to their console counterparts.

 I think I have a problem. I played wipeout with tilt controls and by the third lap of my first race I was loving it. In fact it's the most fun I've had playing a Wipeout game by far. This comes from someone who never really bought into motion controls on the wii and who thinks kinect is ridiculous. What's wrong with me?

There's absolutely nothing wrong with you.  I don't care for motion controls either, and I HATE having them forced down my throat or having them idly replacing button pressing with stick waggling, but stuff like tilting your controller/handheld to steer is a good idea.  Using a touch screen to clear dirt from an artifact is a good idea.  I don't like motion controls and touch controls don't usually do it for me, but so far the Vita games all seem to do it RIGHT, and for the most part it's not forced down your throat.  Hell, Rayman Origins had tap controls but you could completely ignore them if you wanted.
