I make use of it a lot if we are sitting down to watch some stuff on the big screen or if I'm in bed I'm in a room directly above the PS4 so get a great connection to it to continue a game while chiling out. Vita's remote play for me makes it an even better product since buying the ps4, gives the nice features of the wii-u but for the playstation systems. |
Yes, I think it's a great extra. It's not a good reason to buy a Vita just for that, but it's nice to have the option. One thing that I miss is the possibility to use it as a second controller. I've already done that with remote play, but you can't shutdown the screen, giving you roughly 5 hours of battery. I think it should have a "controller 2" mode, basically, remote play with the screen off.

That's why I'm looking forward to NX, it can give the first option in a single device.
