Actually, and I know you say this jokingly, but Vita getting a physical version made me buy the game on Vita. I was planning on buying the Wii U version (because I was interested in the game anyway and Wii U is my primary console next to the 3DS as a handheld), but instead I now own the Vita version since it's available physically on that platform and not the other.
Similarily, Conception II will be a Vita buy for me since 3DS has region locking while Vita does not. Because of this, I scrapped the idea of getting the game for my primary console, so in a way you could say that I treat it as if it were an exclusive (for Vita).
Edit: I feel like elaborating on this further and I'm bored, so here goes: Let's say I wouldn't own a Vita right now and I would look at what I'd get if I bought one and if that is worth it. I would see "oh, neat, there's a physical version of Child of Light on Vita, so that's a reason to buy right there" or "cool, Vita has no region locking, so I can play Conception II off of a physical cartridge. That's compelling." In this decision making process, I'd view these games equivalent to exclusives, just as I actually did when considering an Xbox and Xbox 360 with games that were only on those systems and PC (because I hate gaming on PC). So even though these games were only console exclusive and not true exclusive, I considered them exclusives because I'd never want to buy these on PC anyway.
Long story short: I welcome the new Vita exclusive, Child of Light.
