Best PS Vita Casual Games of All Time

We already published the list of best PS Vita games of all time, now it’s time to discover the best PS Vita casual games of all time.

With amazing titles available, the PS Vita definitely has a great library of casual games.

So, if you’re a fan of both the PS Vita and casual games, there’s a chance you’ll like this list.

And some of you may already know some of the games mentioned in this list.

#10. Super Monkey Ball: Banana Splitz

Super Monkey Ball: Banana Splitz
  • Release Data: Marvelous AQL/Sega, 2012
  • Genre: Casual » Party / Minigame

Despite some issues, Super Monkey Ball: Banana Splitz is a job very well done.

Monkey Ball fans will be happy to get back into the thick of it, and everyone else will just be glad to finally have another great Vita game to play.

#9. Jak and Daxter Collection

Jak and Daxter Collection
  • Release Data: Mass Media/SCEA, 2013
  • Genre: Casual » Compilation

The variety on offer is outstanding, although it does distract a great deal from the core platforming which is by far the most enjoyable aspect.

Still, this is a terrific package of classic adventure platformers and a great chance for newcomers to familiarize themselves with some of the PS2’s most respected titles.

#8. Duke Nukem 3D: Megaton Edition

Duke Nukem 3D: Megaton Edition
  • Release Data: Abstraction Games/Devolver Digital, 2015
  • Genre: Casual » Compilation

Duke Nukem 3D isn’t without its problems and elements of it could have aged better, but Megaton Edition provides such a wealth of enjoyable content that it’s difficult not to at least give it a passing recommendation if you’re looking for a fun, retro-styled shooter on the PS Vita.

#7. Frobisher Says!

Frobisher Says!
  • Release Data: Honeyslug Ltd/SCEE, 2012
  • Genre: Casual » General

If you’re looking for something completely original and a game that will have you smiling, laughing and wondering what on earth is going on, but at the same time having more fun than you will have had on a games console for a long time, then look no further.

#6. God of War Collection

God of War Collection
  • Release Data: Sanzaru Games/SCEA, 2014
  • Genre: Casual » Compilation

The God of War franchise is known for its intense action and this translates to the PS Vita version one hundred percent.

A bit violent and over the top, the God of War series is also deemed quintessential for its time and, in many ways, is a time capsule of the PlayStation 2 era.

#5. Sly Cooper Collection

Sly Cooper Collection
  • Release Data: Sanzaru Games/SCEA, 2014
  • Genre: Casual » Compilation

In terms of gameplay, the Sly Cooper franchise has always been an interesting mix of Mario-style platformer and stealth action.

This collection shows that off in spades and keeps the critically tight controls largely intact.

However, there are points when the PS Vita’s smaller form factor will get in the way, but those are few and far between.

#4. Ratchet & Clank Collection

Ratchet & Clank Collection
  • Release Data: Mass Media/SCE Australia, 2014
  • Genre: Casual » Compilation

The Ratchet & Clank franchise is known for its use of different weapons and gadgets and you will see how creative the developers at Insomniac Games were iterating on this feature as the games progressed.

Easily some of the best platforming on the PS Vita, Ratchet & Clank Collection is a value proposition that gamers shouldn’t pass up lightly.

#3. Zero Escape: The Nonary Games

Zero Escape: The Nonary Games
  • Release Data: Spike Chunsoft/Aksys Games, 2017
  • Genre: Casual » Compilation

The Nonary Games is an easy recommendation to anyone who enjoys a bit of mystery, thrill, and adventure in their games.

The puzzles are brilliantly designed and the characters will make you want to play the next game as soon as possible.

#2. Metal Gear Solid HD Collection

Metal Gear Solid HD Collection
  • Release Data: Armature Studio/Konami, 2012
  • Genre: Casual » Compilation

The Metal Gear Solid HD Collection for the PS Vita is one of the best deals on the system.

These are triple-A home console releases and they don’t lose a thing in their transition to the Vita’s small screen.

Story, gameplay, and huge doses of what-in-the-hell make the Metal Gear Solid series one of gaming’s best no matter the platform.

#1. Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster

Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster
  • Release Data: Virtuos/Square Enix, 2014
  • Genre: Casual » Compilation

Bringing these two games together in one package gives Vita players perhaps the greatest opportunity at spending over 200 hours in front of the system for a small price.

Whether it is FFX’s epic storyline or FFX-2’s inventive combat system, this compilation has enough for even the most jaded JRPG player and should keep you entertained for hours.

About

Hi, I'm R, and I've been playing video games since I was a kid. My first console was the original PlayStation (the gray one) and I spent countless hours playing Crash Bandicoot series and Spyro series. My second console was the PS2 Fat, and I completed all of the GTA series 100%.
