| Chark said: Just get the Vita already. It's region free. It has the games you like. It has Cross Platform/Play/Buy. It is the better web browser and app device. It is getting PS Mobile this fall. It is getting PS Plus. It has 250+ PSP games on the store and 100+ PSone classics. It uses the same account you use on your PS3 for transferring games between them and collecting trophies. It is graphically superior. It has cross game chat. It has great multiplayer capabilities. It has unique combination of two touch screens with gyros, 2 camera, Augmented Reality, 2 analog sticks, and great buttons. It has an 5" OLED screen. It has 7(?) bundles available this year that come with a game and a memory card for the Wifi version. It has a 3G version if that's something you are interested in. It has a power grip by NYKO for 30 bucks that makes it feel like a dualshock and doubles battery life. It has digital versions of every retail game available day one. It has remote play so you can operate and play your PS3 from your Vita at home or anywhere in the world. It has remote controller allowing for asynchronous gameplay like shown at Gamescom with LBP2 and announced for Guacemelee. |
This. This pretty much covers it. I mean, don't get me wrong, the 3DS is an awesome system and I'd recommend it to anyone, but the Vita is superior in pretty much every way. It's still lacking in that #1 killer app category (3Ds doesn't really have one, either, unless of course you REALLY have to get Ocarina of Time for the 6th time).
So yeah, both are fantastic, but the Vita is better. It costs more, but you get what you pay for.
