Epic Quest for Pinball FX2 and the Valentine's pack for Rock Band. I'm also considering Tales of The Abyss. I have it on the PS2 and never finished it.

What is The Vita? Playstation Vita, of course. No capitalization of "the", unless, like in my case, the word is at the start of a sentence. Not enough coffee today?

wow - for some reason, that one has totally passed me by - I had no idea it was a thing, and that it was coming out now.
Too much damn coffee actually ;-)

What Mo said. Also, I'll probably get Tales of the Abyss. I'm still on the fence about Vita, but it'll be next week if I do. Oh, and Twisted Metal, probably.

That may be, but I've saved some money as well. Heck, I rarely play games on my iPhone. Gaming is just something I don't think about when I'm out and about these days.
Give me a few years to where I'm doing a lot more waiting as a parent, and I very well may change my mind, but as a single guy, I don't spend too much time in places where mobile gaming would supplant either my consoles or PC.

Yeah, I guess for me, I travel a lot for work, but I even play portable games just sitting at home. I've owned every Nintendo and Sony portable system released and just always found a way to include those games in my life. The original Gameboy came out while I was still in high school and I didn't own an NES (still had my Atari 2600, though), so that was my gaming system for more modern releases.

Vita + Uncharted.
I might consider Grand Slam Tennis 2 after reading reviews/impressions. I like how it's using analog controls for swinging like the new NHL games.

Epic Quest on iOS.
Also, traded in my Wii today, along with all the accessories, a few games, and a few DS games. Had so much more credit than I expected, I thought about a Vita, but just picked up SW:ToR as planned and will sit on the rest for now.
