I just bought a vita from a friend of mine, 80 euro for the vita, 16gig mem card and Persona 4 + Sly Cooper, QUITE the deal! Now i need some recommendations, digital or retail doesn't matter. PSOne classics/PSP Classics/PS Vita i'm interested in it all! I'll write the ones ive already got my eye on down below:
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Final Fantasy (VII and X+X-2 remaster)
Monster Hunter PSP
Gravity Rush
Soul Sacrifice

Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles. It's a superb remake of Rondo of Blood for the PSP that can be downloaded on the Vita. Also, you can fully unlock both the original Rondo of Blood and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night in-game!
The most imperative thing is that you get a large memory card. 32 gb at the least, although now I'd recommend just importing the 64 gb card. It's not much more expensive on Amazon, and it'll work on any Vita model from any country. (You can wait a bit on this. The 16 GB card should be fine for a little while).
Secondly, you'll want Playstation Plus.
Vita-only games I love are Persona 4 Golden (that metascore is completely deserved), Gravity Rush, WipEout 2048, Ys: Celceta, Lumines: Electronic Symphony (if you can get it cheap), Killzone: Mercenary, and Tearaway.
Some fantastic port jobs include every single fighting game on the Vita (Dead or Alive 5 being my favorite), Sonic and All Stars Racing: Transformed, The Walking Dead, Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3, Muramasa: Rebirth, Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD, and Borderlands 2.
*Note: I'd look at video footage of the Vita version of Borderlands 2 if you are unsure. If you're really experienced with the PC/PS3/360 version, you may be put off.
Indie games on the Vita are really freaking great. Hotline Miami, Spelunky, Lone Survivor, Velocity: Ultra, Guacamelee, and TxK are some of my favorites.
Frankly, there are very few games I've come across on the Vita that I wouldn't recommend. The library is incredibly solid.
If you have never owned a PSP, then you are in for a massive amount of games. Too many for me to list, although some of the standouts are Persona 3 Portable, Final Fantasy: Dissidia Duodecim, the God of War games, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, and Valkyria Chronicles 2 (although you'll need a PS3 to get that one).
Most PS1 games have aged really poorly. The Square RPGs have aged well, though, as well as Metal Gear Solid 1 and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. MGS is another one you'll have to transfer from a PS3.
Hope this helps!
That was a crazy good deal you scored, by the way.
