3DS got an analog slider (two if you count the circle pad pro), spot pass/street pass, Netflix, AR Games, Motion controls, 3D graphics, video recording, a pedometer, and a bunch of minor tweaks (message/notification sytem, activity log, nintendo zone, Nintendo video).

Look guy, you can call me a troll or whatever you like.  You have my permission.  YOUR response was close minded and provoked the response.  Don't think you can just make bullshit remarks and not get called out.  You carry the name "writer" under your avatar.  To a degree, you represent the staff on this site.  I've watched you for a while, Runa and..... I'll just stop there.

Do some research, writer.

 

*for the record, my 3G PSVita sits side by side with my 3DS.  If you say it, be ready to back it up*

1 - I mentioned the analog slider, and the second one does not count since it was a post-release addition. 
2 - Netflix isn't hardware, and every console has that now.  
3 - AR games is software. Does not count
4 - I forgot about motion controls, I'll give you that.
5 - all that junk is software, not hardware.  in that case, PSVita has near, maps, welcome park, its own set of AR games, etc

The only thing I missed was the motion control, I accept my fumble there, the rest is just you and mr pokemon brawl trying your best to make the 3DS sound better than it is.  What you fail to understand is that I actually really, really like the 3DS, but as a piece of hardware it's inferior to the Vita. I fully plan to support both handhelds for the years to come, but the Vita is a much more impressive handheld.  Time and software will tell quality in the long run, but Vita had a hell of a better launch, and is by far the superior hardware. 

Have I said 'hardware' enough to make it clear what I'm discussing here?  (hint: it's hardware, not software.)  

We can discuss, debate, and argue until we're blue in the face about software (which could be fun since both systems have awesome games and there's great arguments on both sides of the spectrum), but that's not what this is about.  this is a thread about Vita, impressions, and opinions. Vita is more impressive and a bigger leap in technology than the 3DS was.  (although both suffer from 'more of the same' syndrome in the eyes of the public at large, sadly.)
