I'm not sure- he gives a big list of all the handhelds he owned, but he only provides negative comments when talking about the DS/3DS and says almost wholly positive things about the Vita, while giving backhanded complements to the PS3 in the meantime ("almost as good as the PS3") - combined with his very strong opinions ("best handheld ever" after a month? Seriously?), he doesn't sound like a particularly credible source.

And what would those mysterious hardware advantages be that DS or 3DS have ?

 

Battery life for DS and ... ?

games worth paying those 300$+.

That's not hardware. The author is definitely talking about the hardware and features. Have you forgotten the 3DS situation before the price cut and Mario?

Well, without proper software that uses the advantages of the hardware, what's the point of superp hardware? I just wanted to point out, that the best handheld ever should be defined by the software, even when talking about hardware. Sounds weird? Perhaps, but the 3D effect of the 3DS is a good example imo, without creative use of the 3D it's a worthless hardware advantage of the 3DS. And the graphic power of the Vita could be worthless too, if it only gets lazy ports of the marketleader 3DS. 

Lazy ports? Like?

IF, just IF...man!

So hard to understand my point, really?

Ah one example could be the "Tales of Innocence:R" game, looks like a lazy port of a DS game.

facepalm..do you really lack that much knowledge or are you just dragging these out of your ass just for the heck of it?

there will always be some lazy ports ..on ANY system. but so far the majority of 'ports' for psv have been of the highest quality with many of them including a lot of extra content and features.

and if you think the sw shown so far have not taken advantage of the hw then..you haven't seen the games properly. again there will be some games that won't fully utlize it..especially when the hw is just launching..like you see psp look a like games on the 3ds but that's not the case with every game..definitely not the case with most of the games on the psv so far

Ah!

So you are the expert here, nice to meet you!

If you think PSV has already the greatest SW ever for a handheld, so it could be called greatest handheld ever, welcome little kid!

I was just stating the obvious, if you can't understand my points, that's your problem. Try to read again and take care of the little words "could" and "if", and don't talk the crap out of your fan-ass. Have a nice day!

sigh ok look grandpa..i know your 100 year old love for ninty might make you a bit sensitive and might hurt your feelings that someone is actually enjoying a sonys handheld..but no one gives a fuck

the article is mainly about the hw and if you think there had been a more impressive hw than this then more power to ya but again doesn't make anothers 'opinion' wrong

if he was to compare the sw then it would be the launch line up compared to other handhelds..this is a highly objective matter but I would argue that this is one of the best if not the best launch line up for a handheld/system

my post to you was mainly about yourpulled out of your ass point about ports. do me a favor and actually go check out what the ports actually offer before making such statements. most of the ports are fantastic quality and have lot of new/extra content included with them. two quick examples, MK Vita, all dlc included, one additional challenge tower with over 150 new challenges plus more to be revealed. and also UMvC, rewind feature thats not even found on the console versions and also controls for those who want to use touch/track pads.I won't even bother with the new IPs

again the psv already have many sw titles that make great use of what the system has to offer. that's all. so the point I'm making here is simple but lemme spell it out for you..there is no 'if it only gets' here, that's already proven wrong

Not to mention Rayman Origins, which is from my research identical to the console versions with one significant improvement: new secret hidden items in EVERY level.  I was dumb and didn't get Rayman on consoles so I'm getting it on PSV.
