Seriously guys, I have the vita and I played the 3ds. The 80 dollar difference between the consoles is totally justifiable. The 3ds isnt even in the same league when comes to presentation at all.

The Nintendo DS was not in the same league of the PSP and we all know how well that ended for the PSP.

It ended quite well for the psp actually. It stole an incredible amount of market share from Nintendo, who previously had a monopoly on the handheld market.

The thing the PSP did manage to take from the DS was more 3rd party AAA effort and core big-name games. With that, marketshare was yanked from under the DS' feet, but it wasn't really absorbed by the PSP in return, as SW sales would show. There are exceptions, but in general it's more 3rd party effort that was stolen than marketshare (when looking at it from a SW point of view).
