This Is Why You Should Have A PSVita

In comparision, I also have a DS with about 15-20 games on the back log. Yet 3DS still interests me. Fire Emblem looks awesome, it's supposedly the best Fire Emblem ever. Tales of the Abyss is a port which I'm really looking forward to, and Resident Evil Revelations is suppose to be the best portable Resident Evil ever, which is just awesome.

I made this post to clarify why my view on PSV is so negative.

Because you prefer the 3DS's inferior console ports?

Gotcha.

Also, why does the 3DS's backwards compatibility make it "just awesome" but not the Vita's? It may be missing Crisis Core and Kingdom Hearts, but that's about it. Why do you consider digital a disadvantage? PSP games on PSN are pretty cheap now, and if you already have the hard copy, sell it and you should be halfway to funding the purchase of the digital version. Let's not forget PS1 classics either. Vita's screen is also significantly larger and better than the PSP's.

Lastly, you claimed the PS Vita had no exclusive JRPGs. That's obviously a load of bollocks, although I think you may have been referring to the West only. Even if you were, what about Ys: Memories of Celceta, and Persona 4: Golden? (I know it's on PS2, but with its heaps of extra content and a 95 meta I think we can forgive that). I don't even know about the more obscure JRPGs on the system, I'm sure the guys over at the Vita thread could name a lot more than I can.

Actually the 3DS Resident Evil is the better game compred to the console port, and it was ported to console, not the other way around.

Tales of the Abyss is just a personal preference. I'm not a Persona fan, but I am a Tales fan. It's a game I'm personally looking forward to, but I wouldn't list it as a reason for others to buy a 3DS since it's available for PS2.

Vita isn't backward compatible, that's the issue. I already own 20+ PSP games, and none are playable on Vita. I have to rebuy digital copies (something else I hate, and I already mentioned why - retail games have value) to play PSP games on Vita.

Why would I ever sell a hard copy of a game which I like? Would you sell a rare book you like because it's free to read an an e-reader? For me it's the exact same idea with retail games. When you own retail, you own more then just the bits of data which make it a game. If the game and money were all that mattered, I could mod my PSP and play everything free, but I don't, so this is a bad arguement.

Persona 4: Golden is a PS2 port. As for Ys, I forgot about that game (not my type of game, so I forgot). Honest mistake.

So PSV has Killzone and Ys to look forward to right? And a handful of average or slightly above avergae games to play now right? Persona 4 and PS3 ports are also a good investment too right? Wow, big whoop. I'd rather just play my backlog on PSP, and play PS3 games on PS3.
