PS Vita game Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana. This is early into the game when you find your first castaway. Adol stumbled on her bathing in the stream.

I personally always loved the Vita graphics and the feel of the handheld, so I prefer this version of the game.

Awesome, thanks for all the info. I was trying to own and play a game for every letter of the alphabet, and that is how I stumbled across the Ys series personally. I didn't end up playing a whole lot, but that was because of life, not a lack of enjoyment. Eventually I'd love to get a Vita. Been wanting one for a while

That's a neat idea, owning and playing every letter. Most Ys games are on a lot of platforms and great stories, so I wouldn't think a Vita is necessary unless you really want to. Because they were low production and pricey memory cards.

But the Vita was an amazing piece of hardware for its time, and likely very ahead of its time, and so it holds a special place for me. If only Sony had truly supported it.

I just wanna own a Vita lol. I modded one for a friend and was quite pleased with the result

I really went and started looking up the hard letters thinking what you could have played if it was this letter. I quickly realized even the harder letters all have at least 2 big game series belonging to them, so it's not very hard. Even when looking at Y, you also have the Yakuza series.

It was a little more difficult 10 or so years ago when I started. I think Yakuza was still Sony exclusive. I'm 99% sure I started Zero on PS4, and I only play exclusives on it. These days it isn't difficult at all for the owning part, but I think playing an A-Z challenge would still be fun
