im asking because i havent played my PSP in ages and have lots of games and i think its time to sell that. But i bought a 3ds on launch day and think its great but only have 1 game and thats Resident evil. Most games i play are shooters/action. Im debating on weather or not to sell the 3ds aswell as its also just sitting there. I loaded up RE today but got bored 5 mins in lol coz ive played it to much. And i dont see any games in the future that really interest me except RE revelations and maybe metal gear solid. Where as the PS vita has a few that interest me? What should i do. Maybe there will be more 3DS games to come out who knows. What is everyone else doing in regards to old consoles? are u selling them or what? Trading them etc.?

I'm selling my Big Boss edition PSP, keeping my 3DS. I say if you don't play your 3DS, and the library doesn't interest you, get rid of it. As for your PSP do you own all you games on UMD?

Coolyfett will eventually pass his PSP to a worthy gamer, but first all prior digital content must be transfered over to PSV.

seems like you're hanging onto your 3DS as a RE / metal gear fan. You prefer those type of titles. I would get rid of it and pick up PSVita, then later down the line in a few years you might want to pick up the 3ds cheap just to play the Revelations and Metal Gear. As for myself i plan on hanging onto the PSP and still enjoying it for hours on end. The whole switching handhelds or UMDs never bothered me.

Coolyfett really enjoyed his PSP, but it has done its time. Its next owner will be worthy of the honor of owning a COOLYFETT device.

Most portables and phones play movies. The vita doing that is not a feature I care about. The games are what I look for. And looking at what it coming, I am waiting. I was going to trade in my psp but I will waiting for better games and a price drop.

I refuse to sell my psp it is my heart., i havent been a nintendo gamer since the psp game out. Psp is my only gaming device since its launch and my Vita will be my second. The ds is pretty cool but very few games appeal to me with nintendo mainly the rpgs but sony is great with rpgs and have plenty on the psp that i am in love with.

No, in fact I might buy another PSP some time (just because I'd like a new one, lol).

Despite the Vita being the superior handheld, I still enjoy Ninty's exclusives and only ever intended purchasing first-party titles for the 3DS anyway.

As for my PSP, that's only ever been used for classics such as Night Trap, Double Switch and Ground Zero Texas I'm definitely keeping that too!

I never sell my systems, but I probably will play less on 3ds / especially PSP and start porting psp games to the vita.

Eventually, I'll give my PSPGo away, but something I'm still not clear about is whether old PSP games can be played on the Vita. In other words,

can I play games like the Syphon Filter series, or Resistance Retribution, the two God of War games, etc. - stuff I bought and downloaded, on the new console?

Here's my case. I've never owned a Sony console- I've been a Nintendo and Xbox gamer. I have a 3ds, and while I like it, I am not sure I want to keep it. I've recently gotten heavily into BlazBlue, and the 3DS version is terrible. I'm contemplating selling my 3ds for a vita primarily to have a console quality BlazBlue in a handheld. I have two major concerns though- 1.) how much $ could I expect from trading in an ambassador 3ds in perfect condition with 5 games? 2.) I'm concerned that the vita won't have anything else I'll like beyond little big planet and blazblue. Games like uncharted bore me in 10 minutes for some reason. I'd appreciate any feedback on this

I am keeping my PSP and 3DS. I need my PSP for UMD games, and the 3DS is finally beginning to pick up with a flood of great titles.

Nope, I'm going to keep my 3DS and PSP, probably wait to buy the Vita around Christmas like I did with 3DS. In your case I'd at lest wait until after Revelations if I was going to sell it. Kid Icarus looks like it could pretty good though also.

Nope. I've giving my PSP1000 to my 4-yr old as a media player. It's a great media player in my view. But, I want my Vita.
