Definitive Vita Game?

I was just wondering with a year under its belt, if you were to really showcase the Vita with one game, what would it be?  I'd say Uncharted since it basically feels like a console game on the Vita (minus some of the annoying swipe touch screen moments).  Overall it is a complete package that doesn't feel like it is lacking anything.  And it takes advantage of the two control sticks by being one of the few shooters worth playing on the Vita.  I also think Assassin's Creed is a good way to show the power/potential of the handheld with its open world structure.

So, what Vita game would you use to sell someone on the Vita?

Out of the ones I've played, I'd say Gravity Rush. Haven't gotten to UC or AC yet.

I, too, would say Uncharted.  Best Vita game so far, IMO.

Gravity Rush.

To me, Wipeout 2048 is the most technically impressive game on the Vita. It looks incredible(technically and artistically), and it's running at native res with 4x antialiasing. Studio Liverpool were by far the masters of optimization.Granpire

Uncharted or AC:L to show off the Vita as a console-quality experience, Gravity Rush to show what the Vita can do uniquely.

It's sort of a shame that SL went for a near-future urban aesthetic. It's really what pushed the system too hard in terms of texture variety and model detail. The environments look absolutely breathtaking, but had they gone for a cleaner futuristic look, à la Wipeout HD/Pulse, I'm positive they could have pulled off 60FPS.Granpire

Texture quality was far from the only thing that F-Zero X sacrificed, and bringing a game up to 60FPS isn't so simple as just lowering texture quality.

I do agree that framerate is probably more important for racers, but I've also got to admit that Wipeout 2048 is one of the most visually stunning racers on any system ever. It's not as if the tradeoff was done out of optimization laziness(like many developers do with FPS and resolution as a way to get a quick speed boost).

Gravity Rush, Ive shown to game to many people and their debating getting a vita for it. Its really quite a solid game.

I have only played NFS: Most Wanted, Everybody's Golf, Tales from Space and Golden Abyss so far.

I am so addicted to Everybody's Golf, but Uncharted really is spectacular. Can't wait to play Gravity Rush and Disgaea ^^

Late to the party,but Marvel vs Capcom 3 on Vita looks and plays gorgeous,add in your custom music and its a blast.

It's between Gravity Rush and LittleBigPlanet for me.  Gravity Rush is fantasitic as a new IP for the Vita I really found that game hard to put down and the controls were rather good.  LittleBigPlanet Vita is fantastic for it's user generated content it's as good as LittleBigPlanet 2 and it's good use out of the the features on the Vita the only level I hate is the one where you have to use the back panel on the Vita for the entire level.

As for Uncharted I'm a big fan of the series on the PS3 but I couldn't get into Uncharted on the Vita since it has so many touch screen control gimmicks and annoying stuff like shining your Vita up to a bright light.

I have to admit Wipeout 2048 is superb but to me Ninja Gaiden Sigma + so far remains one of the best Vita games. I still have to play Gravity Rush past the opening scene however.
