Europe isnt that far in the shitter where you cant find good deals on quality 3DS games.

 

The eshop is a bit hefty though.

 

Amazon is one of the places to get the best deals.

Look at this:

Lugis mansion: 32 pounds

Paper mario: 30 pounds

Mario kart 7: 31.95 pounds

Castlevania LoS MoF: 28.99 pounds

Etrian Odyssey IV: 32.65 pounds

Pokemon X/Y: 32.97 pounds

RE:Revelations: 26.49 pounds

 

Lets compare to Vita shall we:

Soul sacrifice: 32 pounds (released at 26 though and its a rare find now)

Persona 4 golden: 28.52 pounds

Killzone mercenary: 27.50 pounds

Tearaway: 19.99 pounds

Dead or Alive 5 +: 18.19 pounds

Sly cooper: 19.99 pounds

Uncharted golden Abyss: 18.45 pounds

 

Its pretty clear wich system is gonna cost you more in the long term. 3DS games hardly drop in price or are released at a much high price point.


So, how did you get those figures?  I mean, why those games?  You could put pilotwings resort in there, or steal diver, or Street Fighter 4 3D, or Dead or Alive Dimensions, and that would yield completely different results.

Besides, if you just want cheap games, get an iPhone.  "The games are cheaper" is exactly the argument that fans of dedicated handhelds have rallied against.  Vita games have a lower price because they have a lower value in the eyes of consumers.

Well, I like playing games on my gamepad pretty often, so I can see the appeal of the Vita in that regard.  There is nothing wrong with the Vita itself.  It has nice visuals, a nice screen, and is reasonable comfortable if a bit bulky for a portable.  System itself would be good if it had good software to back it up.
