Could the PS Vita be a double generation handheld?

Not really. The GB was a double generational (it lived with the SNES and the N64), and its key to success was a cheap price and a variety of games (with a bit of help from Tetris and Pokemon, to be fair). The Vita is more expensive than the 3DS (including console, memory card and PS subscription), and it has way less varied content than its competitors (both 3DS and mobile).

This is just an outright lie at this stage. Mobile has more variety, but no physical controls. Vita lineup is far more varied than the 3DS' though.

Also Vita has been the cheaper of the two handhelds for a good while now, unless you count the 2DS which is only about £15 cheaper but with nowhere near as much included. Heck Nintendo don't even include a PSU in the box with the 3DS XL.

Also why are you bringing PS+ into it? It's entirely optional on Vita and just provides free games.

Ok, I hadn't seen those prices. In my regular stores they sell regular 3DS way cheaper than Vitas, I wasn't counting the XL model. 3DS XL bundles are more expensive than Vita bundles.  Also, I have found that some retailers sell the Vits memory card for more than 120€, while others sell it for 80. It's still expensive as hell, but with 120 € you can buy a 2DS bundle, lol.
