I got a PSVita over the holidays. I hope I am welcomed to the Vita family. I have been abscent from these forums for a good amount of time. No particular reason for the absence, just sort of naturally drifted away like a petal in water.

In any case, I'm really liking it! I'm a huuuuuuuuge JRPG fan so naturally the back catalogue of PSP games and the current library of Vita games, while small, but still good, is very exciting! But I only have so much time and I have a ton of other games to finish on other platforms so I don't imagine I'm going to get very far with my current Vita games yet, but soon!

Congratulations and welcome! What are your initial thoughts on the system?

Honestly, I really like it. I love the ability to have my PSOne games plus a PSP back catalogue with me on the go along with a good Vita game all at the same time. And considering I'm coming from having a 3DS for two years (which I love), it feels nice having a legitimate account based handheld platform. It's cool to check my friend list and see what they are playing whether it's on Vita or PS3 and be able to send messages. I even dabbled a bit in remote play with the Ico collection and find that to be a lot of fun while I watch some TV.

Also, I actually kind of like near. I know lots of people think it's useless, but considering how I don't live in a majorly populated area and considering the Vita isn't the hottest seller, I was really surprised and happy to find 9 people in my location.

Overall, I really do like it a lot. It's very nice system!
