3DS vs. PSVita: A Battle for Supremacy

[Zephyr 21]

I have both and I love them both. They do different things. One is when I'm in the mood for epical console type experiences (Vita) and the other is for short bursts (apart from KH of course). They cross over into each others territory sometimes though.

Its clear that Nintendo is the King of handhelds. The Vita is more hardcore and about the system while the 3DS is just about games(would it kill Nintendo to put a usb port in the 3DS for people who have no router to get the system update).

 

Wouldn't using the SD card suffice?

Can you get the system update without having wireless internet?

No idea. Never tried. Knowing Nintendo, I doubt it

But why wouldn't the SD card work? Why would it need a USB slot?

[dusk 910]

Well, I say Vita:

 

1: It has lot of good games I wanna play and lot of good games are coming soon

 

2: It feels much better to play on Vita, controls are better, two analog sticks by default, better buttons

 

3: I don't buy expensived system for just one game

What does Sony's website have that Nintendo's site doesn't have?

[coolwings 1,546]

3DS.

 

Why? It has KH3D.

[DragonMaster 1,166]

Right now, I prefer the 3DS. I have never owned a PSP, and probably won't get a Vita. The 3DS and DS both had games that appealed to me (*coughnearlyhalfofmyDSlibraryispokemoncough*), while the PSP had relatively few (Tales of the World, BbS... yup). The Vita has two that currently interest me (Gravity Rush, Tales of Innocence R), but one has NOT been localized (Innocence).

 

Don't get me wrong, I am sure that the PSP was great, and with the time I've spent playing Vita in store demos, I know it is good. It is simply that I don't carry much interest in the games available.

 

If I was too buy a Sony system right now, it would be a PS3, which I can get for just as much, if not less than a Vita, and has a few games I would love to play (FFvXIII, Tales of Graces f, Tales of Xilla, possibly Last of Us and a few others).

Well I don't own a PS Vita yet (plan to get one soon!), so for the moment i'll say 3DS. Its true that 3DS has the stronger library at the moment, but KH3D is really the last game I was anticipating for the 3DS. Apart for a pokemon or Zelda game, there's nothing that i'm looking forward to on the 3DS. While the vita has: FFX, AC Liberation, Persona 4, Playstation All Stars, Soul Sacrifice, Bioshock, Hatsune Miku, Killzone, Jet Set Radio, Little Big Planet and Sly Cooper 4.

 

And the Vita being region free also gives it more of an edge over the 3DS.

3DS, because Vita doesn't have enough good games. I'd prefer to play on my Vita, but there's no games for me to play on it...

 

but one has been localized (Innocence).

 

Innocence R was never translated, not even the original. Gravity Rush was though, pretty good game, although the ending sucked.

This should have been a poll.

3DS.

D'oh! I meant to say NOT LOCALIZED. *rage* Stupid mistake is stupid. Thanks for pointing that out. I'll fix it.
