Gaming - Vita or 3DS? - View Post

I said this in another thread awhile back(now with some changes)

As an owner of both a 3DS and Vita; the Vita has much more going for it(which I'd recommend)

I've had a 3DS since launch and the games I own are:
Super Street Fighter IV
Samurai Warrior Chronicles
Resident Evil Mercenaries
Super Mario 3D Land
Mario Kart 7
Tales of the Abyss
Resident Evil: Revelations
Kingdom Hearts 3D

I got the Vita a month after launch and now have already surpassed my 3DS Library in less than a year:
Uncharted: Golden Abyss
Unit 13
Resistance: Burning Skies
Gravity Rush
Ninja Giaden Sigma 2
Super Stardust Delta
Littlebigplanet
Ragnorak Odyssey
PSASBR
Persona 4: Golden

and thank to PS+ I was able to get:
Tales from Space
Jet Set Radio
Wipeout 2048
and also can get Gravity Rush and Uncharted: Golden Abyss

though this really doesn't prove why the Vita is better, but I can only give you my perspective on why the Vita is the handheld to get


Don't you think that the 3DS gets a point for being fully backwards compatible with the DS?  Well, for someone who doesn't have a DS.  

Anyway, I think if someone can get both, then getting both would be the easiest way.

yes that's a good point, many PSP owners were disgruntlesd at the fact the the PSV had no backwards compatability for  hard copies of PSP games, also that Sony didn't offer that "buy PSP games for UBER cheap" outside Japan

I can only say from my perspective that when I got my 3DS I still had my DSI so it wasn't a real selling point for getting my 3DS(and same for the Vita)
