I have gone on a journey figuring that out for myself, as most Vita games are on PS3/4 and/or Switch as well, and there are relatively few true exclusives. Silent Hill Book of Memories is definitely one of them, and is one of the more sought after and valuable games on the system. Army Corps of Hell, Sorcery Saga and Freedom Wars are both exclusive games and series, though none are rare or valuable. Hakuoki Kyoto Winds is an exclusive as well (albeit it might now be on Steam too). There are quite a lot of visual novel games on the Vita and that isn't a genre that really interests me, not least because they're usually based on Japanese media and series that I also have knowledge of or interest in. But these all came from two sellers that had a lot of auctions running. I put in quite a few speculative bids that were a little way below what I thought some of the games were worth, and more than I expected ended up winning including that one.
Fundamentally it's a very similar console to the PS3 save that it's extremely portable, which is a massive selling point to me and the whole point of the console generally. As I said elsewhere, as much as I do really like the Steam Deck, it's pretty bulky. On my recent holiday I could easily bring out the Vita of an evening to play some Walking Dead or Virtua Tennis 4, both of which are fully fledged PS3 games, and being able to do that anywhere is just fantastic. And I love the idea being able to do that when I'm away from home on work as well, hence expanding the game library to give me a wider range of options as to what I might want to play. There are some shorter games in there, but also some chunkier RPGs and similar, which I might turn to if I know I'll be able to play 10+ hours over the course of a week that I'm away.
