I have both, believe me, the 3ds is your choice. The vita is nice, it's very beautiful and the screen looks beautiful, but has only niche/Japanese games and visual novels. I own around eight vita games, and most of them are ports from ps3 games, remasters from old games, and the one original vita game I have is already available on ps4 (gravity rush).
The 3ds has tons and tons of absolutely amazing games, and it still has a long life ahead. I'm so surprised Nintendo announced some games for it, and third parties are still there, with games like dq11 or Radiant historia.
I'd go with the 3ds, but it's up to you and your taste in gaming. Remember the 3ds is a bit more child focused, with more cartoony games. If you can also enjoy that, go for it
