PS Vita is a great handheld, BUT.... apart from the price, PS Vita has nothing exciting/new
we've seen the graphics on Ps3/Xbox360, they are nothing new, even on a small handheld
3DS on the other side has the most accessible 3D on the market and when combined with Nintendo's games it will crush PS Vita one way or another....
I think it's Nintendo once more!! |
This is incorrect.
PS Vita introduces Dual multi-touch (front and back), Dual Analog Sticks on a portable, Cross game chat on a portable, and has the highest hardware specs of any current portable device (Quad CPU, Quad GPU, Etc.) for a fraction of the price.
Nintendo Has not changed gameplay in anyway over the DSi (aside gyro/accelerometer which everything has now). The 3D is only an augmentation of visuals and does not add to any input or output of the gameplay/system. So arguing that Nintendo has done more innovation with the 3DS from a technical aspect is FACTUALLY incorrect.
Which leaves software, for which I am seeing more interesting NEW concepts and demos from Vita development than 3DS. Current 3DS offerings have disappointed many, though for future releases, I will still buy some first party 3DS games here and there, but the game library Vita is developing is looking more interesting as a whole.

Your argument boils down to
Dual analog + multi-touch + back touch > single analog + single touch, so Vita > 3DS.
As I said above, the 3D is a jump of its own. 2 Screens as compared to one gives for different types of gameplay. Maybe it's not innovative, but it definitely sets it apart from Vita. They each have their strengths and weaknesses.

I was stating what was new in a portable device.
The 3DS vs. DSi: added 1 analog slider, gyro/accelorometers, 3D slider.
Their Dual screens does still differentiate them, but not as much as the Vita.
The PSP vs. Vita: added 2 Multi-touch surfaces, 2 analog sticks, gyro/accelorometers, Cross game voice chat.
Non of the Vita features are in any other portable device, thats why it is unique. Also they offer a 3G/GPS model which the 3DS does not.
