Thought this was something worth having since both of the main threads don't really cover this particular facet all that well. The idea of this thread is to bring up and discuss not necessarily New Games that have been announced or games you are currently playing, but stuff you're currently considering getting and maybe get the opinions of others who may already have it.
Basically it's not necessarily new games/news to be covered here, nor stuff you're actually paying at the moment, obviously. Instead it's stuff that's been out a while that looks interesting and you may want to go out and play. As a result, if this takes off, this thread can help bring both older and newer gems to the forefront and maybe generate discussion that brings games to peoples attention that they might have missed when they first released.
For example, and by extension the reason I decided to make this thread at all, I recently saw a list of recommended games for the Vita that included a game called New Little King's Story, a sort of upgraded version of a game that came out on the Wii that basically seems like a mix of Pikmin and a town builder. My personal experience would relate it to Dark Cloud's down building part but there's probably better examples to pull from. Basically there's a mechanic in place that lets you build facilities to help train your citizens and make them better at stuff to help you out in the exploration part of the game where you and your squad go out and fight stuff.
Trailer showcasing this better than I'm explaining it can be seen here:

Look interesting to anyone? And more importantly can I get an opinion on this game to convince me to buy it (And with Gravity Rush, Soul Sacrifice, Tearaway, and a potential Gravity Rush sequel coming by extension convince me to bite the bullet and buy a vita since it meets my 5 interesting looking games quota).
