-Sony said that the Vita wouldn't have any internal memory.

-The 3DS should win in portability because it's smaller, (and Sony also said that the Vita isn't pocketable)

-Why are you assuming that the Vita's browser is better? Did Sony say that it would support Flash?

-Both have outdated cameras (640x480= 0.3 MP)

-Also, durability should be a tie (we aren't sure about the Vita)

When did Sony ever say that Vita would not have internal memory??? I got mutliple links that say otherwise...

PSP browser was better than DS browser and rumors are that PS-VITA and PS3 will support google chrome which is why i gave browser to PS-VITA

3DS is not really a pocket carrying device either seeing that it is about he same size as the Vita

Vita camera is a 960 x 544 camera compared to the 3DS's 0.3 megapixel camera.

Durabilty i guess can be a tie though.  :)


Yes it is. The 3DS easily fits into my pockets, it almost the same size as a DS Lite but just a tiny bit chunkier. Have you ever seen a PS Vita in real life? It's much bigger than the 3DS, it's even bigger than the PSP 1000.

Also 3DS wins in the durability department as well due to it's clam shell design.

3DS battery life is 3-5 hours on max settings not 3-4.

3DS file compatibility:

 

  • Photo -  JPEG, MPO
  • Audio - MP3, ACC (.m4a, .mp4 or .3gp)
  • Video - N/A
You're missing Infrared Transceiver from connectivity on the 3DS side.
Both systems have microphones.
Also nothings been officially confirmed on the PS Vita internal storage.

 

"Also 3DS wins in the durability department as well due to it's clam shell design"

i don't understand this how does having the screen supported by a thin plastic lid make it more durable than a candy bar form factor?

"Also nothings been officially confirmed on the PS Vita internal storage."

theres no internal memory it has to be bought seperately

A Sony device doesn't reach it's full potential till the hackers get hold of it. Once it does, I'll become interested in it, until then it's the 3DS for me :)

Pointing out a few things about the vita
1. BC, it will work with every psp game on the store, and on top of that the second analogue will be usable
2. 153 3rd party devs are working on something for it, obviously all of it isn't going to be exclusive but considering it's buttons and specs I'd say more then it's fair share will be :) also psv will have pssuite which is sony's phone game store
3. psv should win the features , I know we don't know all of them yet but come on, the psp beats the 3ds in features

The screens are protected by the hard shell. Try putting your candy bar in your pocket with keys and see how the screen get destroyed.

You know it's not impossible to get keys stuck inbetween the two screens with clam shell desgin

That's why I always put my 3DS in my titanium box before stuffing in my pocket.

theres no internal memory it has to be bought seperately

The lid acts as a barrier shielding the screens from direct impact so there's less chance of them cracking. The outer plastic layer isn't that thin, it can sustain some damage. The PS Vita on the other hand has it's screen out in the open ready to be raped by an accident.

Also the PS Vita must have some internal memory for firmware updates etc.

I personally think people should just start carying backpacks around, it's really convienient, I can bring a water bottle filled with real orange juice (that cots 1.5 bucks for 2 L) a sweat shirt, and anything else that's awkward to carry, and backpacks are designed to not be a hassle, I really don't know why there is a social stima agaisnt bringing one to most places you go

Sony already looked into that. That's why they made it too large to fit into your pocket :D
