its sad that there are only 2 Vita exclusives on the list, fortunately it looks like new exclusives JRPGs will be coming soon

problem is p4 golden even though adds a good amount of content is still for the most part a game thats not exclusive, so the only real exclusive on the list is ys celceta.
the extra content is like "exlusive dlc" that you get in games nowadays or like how tales of games that first come to xbox 360 or gamecube as exlusives then get released on ps2/3 with extra content/improvments.

I'm hoping that we will get persona-like quality games in the future, but so far we have had mostly extremely low budget games like mind 0 as exlusives.

There needs to be LESS 1st Person Dungeon Crawling Demon Hunting RPG's and more RPG's like the PS1/PS2 era.

More Tales of, More Ys, More games like FF:CC or FF9.

* 3rd Person, I want to see more characters, Open World to run around in, but still linear, Likeable Cast, NO ANNOYING Characters, GOOD STORY, Lots of good music, 15+ Towns, Appealing Art Style, lots of content ect...

It's really not that hard or difficult to come up with good ideas, it's the like people in charge of being creative are trying TOO hard and they keep going way overboard into SUPER NICHE territory and scaring off would be customers.

Deny it if you want, but it's mainly true.

Wow that list is really short. There are way more JRPG's on Vita.
