So, I'm in a big dilema right now. I wan't to buy a 3DS to play so many games but I also want to buy the PSVita just because it has my favorite RPG ( GUESS IT!) of course I won't be buying the Vita just for ONE game... I've made up a list with good and bad things for each console but I still can't decide. ( Oh, Persona why do you have to be so perfect?) 

3DS

- Resident Evil Revelations.

- Ocarina of Time 

- Kid Icarus

- Pokemon games

- Fire Emblem

- Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate ( The NO ONLINE restriction for the 3DS amuse me a little bit)

- Luigi's Mansion 2 

- Bunch of games coming

- Excellent Sales wich means more games being develop

- 3D

The Bad

- Graphics compared to the PSVita are worse.

- Small Screen ( I don't like the XL Model)

- Low battery life.

- Interface 

PS Vita

- Persona 4 Golden (The new content is making me wish I could have both consoles right now.)

- Soul Sacrifice 

- Little big planet ( I love Sackboy.)

- Blazblue 

- KillZone

- Big screed that looks beautiful

- Good interface

The Bad:

- Expensive

- Bad sales wich means less games coming for it

- MEMORY CARDS 

- Not portable enough

- Few games coming out the next months

I Know the bads are more for the PSVita but the Persona 4 title is making me crazy right now with this decision, I'm in love with that game I spent more that 300 hours playing It in my PS2 when It came out and I just can't get over it... I still have my PS2 with me and can play the game everytime I want but the new content Persona 4 The Golden have is just making everything so hard for me.

I also have a question, is the 3D effect for the 3DS amazing? Good? or just OK? :l 

I have both and I don't understand the not portable enough for the vita remark? It fits perfectly especially if you compare it to the XL. I would say if you really want Persona 4 that bad and you plan on playing that many hours it seems you will get more time and enjoyment out of getting the vita.

I would wait for E3 to see the Vita support.. Then decide.. Or wait again but then for the Tokyo Game show to see the Vita support...

Also, there's Remote Play for Vita too if you plan to buy PS4...but at this moment 3DS is probably better buy

I don't think it's worth to buy a new a console just to play the same game again even if it has some extras and in my opinion the graphics of the PS2 version are good enough. And not only you'd have to buy the console, but you'd have to buy the memory cards.

Well, that's the way I thought when thinking about playing the HD Remake of Final Fantasy X.

The Vita is worth it for P4G alone plus you can get every other Persona game on it. Plus you'll find yourself using it for a lot of other things like netflix, facebook, browsing the web (I'm typing this on my vita), and watching youtube videos. Not saying the 3DS is bad but in my opinion the Vita is a much better console.

The pricing is unfortunate but you'll realize the Vita is worth every penny after using it for 5 minutes. I would suggest getting at least and 8gb memory card because there A LOT of indy games coming to Vita. Besides the games you've listed, other games that are good are:

Hot Shots Golf (fun even if your not that into golf like me)
Need for Speed: MW
Gravity Rush (free through PS+)
Uncharted: GA (free through PS+)
Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed
Disgaea3: AOD (free through PS+)
Unit 13
Guacamelee
Mutant Blobs Attack
Sound Shapes
Plants vs. Zombies
Retro City Rampage

3DS is good just not worth $200 so if you find a good deal on one then I suggest getting one but if not get a Vita.

How can you say PS VITA has a beautiful big screen then say not portable enough. It is the trade off here.

3DS XL is actual awesome, try it out in store first.


I would get the 3DS first then the vita as I am sure a price cut is on the horizon.

I'm thinking about the 3DS more now after reading this... I know I can play P4 whenever I want. Just want to know, is the content worth it?

I own both systems, and I like each one a lot. But 3DS is the better system, now and for the foreseeable future.

In terms of games, 3DS wins on quality and quantity, even though Vita has some gems -- Gravity Rush and Wipeout 2048 to name a couple.

The vita hardware is more powerful and the system itself is gorgeous, but that doesn't automatically translate to a better video game experience.

I would recommend you buy both systems, but if you can only afford one, then go with 3DS. It's less expensive, it has a better library of games, and its future is a lot brighter.

i think i would wait a bit on the vita. see what E3 has and wait for the inevitable price cut
