What games do you have on 3DS that are NOT from a console Series?

I'm going to be nice here and point out that games such as Mario and Zelda have had years of experimentation in the handheld space, and in the beginning is wasn't exactly great (except for Zelda). Remember how Super Mario Land was of lesser quality and was made by a different team, and how that team eventually got it right in later installments?

The main difference though is that Nintendo made a brilliant maneuver by making Tetris the pack-in game. An accessible, brilliant experience that would be great on any system, but just feels right on a handheld. I'm hoping that Sony can pull off more games with that kind of feeling while continuing to improve on the promising Uncharted and Gravity Rush games.

Have you played any of said watereddown ports on Vita? It seems to be a echoed belief from people who have not tried the games either from a friend, in a store, or own a Vita.

The fact it took Nintendo a few tries to get it right doesn't speak on what Sony has done with these titles right now. If anything I think it just shows that people have a hard time accepting change of any sort,hence it took an entry or two before ppl accepted SM on portable. They are all good, with the exception of CoD of course. If people were saying "Oh well, I'm just not that into uncharted" or "I am not into playing that type of game on handheld", I can live with that. But to call it a watered down port when its really doing everything right(for the most part) for what we expect from a handheld version of it.......is unacceptable to me.

I get what you mean. People should have reasonable expectations for a handheld version of a franchise, though I believe that future installments will refine the formula to the point where it will be hard not to be impressed. I don't quite see Golden Abyss as a watered-down port (Assassin's Creed, I'm not so convinced) per se, but as a good attempt at a handheld Uncharted game. The only thing seperating it from sheer greatness is the presentational quality, which from what I gather from reviews is not up to series's extremely high standards. A second pass has a shot of being a game that realizes the system's potential even further. Bend has said something along the lines of them being able to make a possible sequel far better. I say give tham a shot, and we may have a bona fide killer app. Same for the purported Gravity Rush sequel.

In the meantime, I was hoping for more games already proven as solid handheld experiences. God of War was excellent on PSP, especially the second attempt at one. LittleBigPlanet was a perfect fit for Vita, and was decent on PSP. But I do commend Sony for taking some risks regardless, and I do hope to pick a Vita up sometime over the course of the next year.

Ok, so we at least agree on something :P lol

I do believe as time goes on, the games will become more refined, but for a new handheld with brand new features, and series we have never seen done on handheld......they are pretty damn good. I just wish I could believe these reviewers are even giving these games the benefit of the doubt tho.
