The vita would be my choice. A handheld with an actually good online service and achievements/trophy support would be great. I think Sony quit on the Vita too soon

I still can't get over how well the Vita was made. Sony did almost everything right with that one (aside from the memory cards). It had features that people have been begging for on the Switch almost ten years ago. I can't comprehend why it failed so miserably.

Love my Vita but yeah Sony failed the Vita. Booed on stage with AT&T. Memory cards. Too expensive in 2012. (3DS was $50 and was struggling until 3DS price was lowered) poor marketing. Sony barley supported it and after 2013 hardly mentioned it at press conferences. Maybe Sony wanted Vita to be the Bro handheld with FPS and maddens but turned into the SEGA Saturn/Dreamcast of handhelds with a lot of smaller great niche games. Indie and Japan. Vita is just flat out an amazing system. I also love the Vita TV tho it was a rushed product. Vita TV should have come out in 2014 and shipped with a DS4 so all games could work on it.

Vita stumbled so Switch could run full sprint.
