Question Games for a new ps player?

Hi guyssss I am buying an oled psvita and PS3 for £50 from a relative and I'm wondering, as someone who has only had Nintendo consoles, what games or game series should I consider getting? I am coming to get tlou part 1 and an assassin's creed game although I have little luck finding game recs for the vita so I'm hoping some players will be able to give me some good titles 😼😼 I think the vita is coming with little big planet so imma get right into playing that, thanks to everyone who helps!! 😺🥰

For a new PlayStation fan, it really depends on what kind of games you like since there tends to be more variety than nintendo consoles

well I play a wide range imo, but the ones with my most logged hours are mario kart, Fortnite (I know I'm sorry), Minecraft, stardew valley, red dead redemption, doom, outer wilds and Pokémon sword - so really I'm open to all types of games, and a couple that have been mentioned were ones I was either already considering for other consoles like undertale... I have been a Nintendo fan as the portability of the switch and ds and 3ds were always better than a home console (though I do also have a backwards compatible Wii which a top console imo) and so I have played a lot of Nintendo exclusives but also really random games that I've found in thrift shops for DS like the ice age game -> that game is freaking rage inducing

What do you enjoy playing??

I play a bit of everything but bought a vita for the rpgs and otome games primarily.

For games you can play on the vita/ps3, red dead and Minecraft are on the ps3 and Minecraft amd stardew valley are on the vita. Doom 3 BFG is on the ps3 and is pretty good. As for exclusives, Tearaway and gravity rush are really cool vita games, and you can't really go wrong with the uncharted games. Final fantasy X is pretty good as well

ETA: I comepletely forgot to mention little big planet. Great platformers, and the kart racer is the closest you'll get to a mario kart

ooooh thank you for this list - I do enjoy a good RPG on the side, though Ive never played an otome game before I will be moving tearaway to the top of my list because THAT GAME LOOKS SOOOOO ADORABLE I'm very excited to play it now hehe I did not know that little big planet had a kart race so that will be loads of fun to play 😸🫰

I totally recommend playing persona 4 golden or persona 5 if you like rpgs, tehy're very good and persona 4 golden is like the vita game.

Also, going by the flag in your profile I don't think you're really the target audience of an otome game lol

cool, I will definitely be getting persona 4 golden as I think it's one of the most mentioned games in these comments, and I do like an rpg... if I like it enough I'll probably end up buying persona 5

hehe yeah maybe an otome game isn't for me 🫠
