I haven't been into portable gaming since the original gameboy advance.  That'll change probably around may 2012.  

3DS fits my situation better.  

 

  • HW and SW will be cheaper.  
  • I HATE TROPHIES(to be more general I hate gamerscores), so the talk of ninty's achievement--->earning some kind of reward definitely appeals to me. I would love a subtle achievement system like steam, but that is in no way a deal breaker.
  • 3DS will have backwards compatibility for DS games.  That is a large library of games I have not played.  Hoo rah
  • Right now, 3DS has games I want such as bomberman, RE mercenaries, Splinter cell(chaos theory port or not), kid icarus, and a few others.
  • If I wanted to play Sony's games I would buy a PS3. Also, I still have Monster Hunter Tri, so the portable version I'm indifferent to.
  • I HATE FINGER TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLS!!!!
  • 3DS will be more portable and have more portable games.  
  • The ladies will be wowed by the 3D
  • Third Party Nintendo= Awesome
  • Next gen I could very well be a Portable/PC gamer.  Why would I play an FPS on a portable system while I have steam?  To that extent, 3DS also looks to have a mean fighting line-up, a genre not great on the PC.
  •  3DS's online appeals to me. 
So yeah, I want the 3DS ;)
Hopefully Ninty Sony can kick Apple's arse.
