3DS or the Vita,which is better?

And why?

Which ever has the games you like?

I personally prefer the Vita, better hardware, better online functionality, apps like Netflix and YouTube are great on it, and most importantly I prefer the Vita's library of games.  Not to say that the 3DS is bad though, it's not, I just can't find any interest in it's current library.

The majority will disagree with me here though, and go with the 3DS, but for a good reason, the 3DS is a great system with a solid library. 

Yes

Lol?

VITA, especially if you have PS Plus. 

It ends up being much cheaper than 3DS. 

Instant access to:

-Uncharted Golden Abyss

-Gravity Rush

-Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus

-Wipeout 2048

-Jet Set Radio Future

-Mutant Blobs Attack

and more

(Plus cross-buy games; free games if you've bought certain games for ps3 already (PS All Stars, Sly Cooper Thieves in Time, etc))

The Vita is the most perfect Handheld that I have ever laid my hands on.

Problem? I don't have enough games for it, and the support seems to be dwindling so most of the time, It just sits there.

The 3DS has a lot of games that I look forward to and buy.

Just looking at the games themselves should tell you which system is better.

The 3DS actually gets support from Nintendo and has a future, and has a much more appealing library for me overall.

The 3DS easily.

If the 3DS had a GBA VC, the 3DS could potentially hold pretty much every worthwhile Nintendo handheld game made. That'd be awesome.

These are the upcoming North American 3DS games, so in my opinion 3DS.

Let me know which ones you're going to pick up BTW. 

Vita has better hardware ( the rear touch flopped big though) and the 3DS has better games. Persona 4 Golden helped close that gap though. Then again Fire Emblem may have opened it again.......GoldenElementXL

I dont think a multiplatform game matters at all for closing any gap

These 2 are also coming to North America.

Samus3D I think you just posted the same game twice.

Sense Nintendo started a intiative to localize more Japanese games look out for these.

Shin Megami Tensei IV

and Dragon Quest VII

Professor Layton X Phoenix Wright better come over to the States.

I would add this one too, Layton and Azran mysteries

If Bravely Default and Layton Azran comes to US, 3DS will definitly be one of my best systems of all time, if not the very best

I play my Vita way more than my 3DS. I was not impressed with the 3DS hardware. Vita just needs more games.

3DS imo, but I like both of them. There may be a lack of Vita games that I actually want at the moment, but I'm really satisfied with the Vita because I never had a PSP. There are lots of great PSP games on PSN just waiting to be downloaded. Plus Disgaea 3 and Persona 4 are pretty cool on the Vita too.

Both are pretty great. It depends on your taste, but be warned: the 3DS has sh!tty graphics and is uncomfortable to hold, and for many, the Vita library is lacking.tarzanell

Pretty good summation.

The 3DS is my preferred handheld at the moment. I've got a really fantastic library of games for it so far and it's only going to get better with Castlevania, Luigi's Mansion, and Pokémon at the end of the year. 

I do want a Vita because there are a lot of great experiences to be had on the handheld, but there just aren't enough for me currently. That and I don't know what the future of the Vita is. :? 

Vita all the way. I got a 3DS to play Nintendo first party games. Sold it because i hated the console design (no dual analog, the main screen is too small and very low res, and the 3d is a complete wast of resources. Vita, on the other hand, is awesome tech. It just lacks support from devs.

so there's no reason to buy a Vita, unless you're an hardcore Sony fan.

Atari Jaguar > PS VitaStefan91x

the one that plays this game

Not a lot of objectivity here in system wars. Both handhelds are awesome in their own ways and both are worth owning. Neither one is better than the other.

Im snowed in from the storm and have spent plenty of time with Fire Emblam, and Mario Kart 7 on 3DS and Persona 4 and Sly Cooper on PS Vita. All i can say is i equally enjoy both and am glad i have them.

What a disgusting flavour.  mems_1224

The 3DS, I feel like the Vita will pick up some speed but it will never pass the 3DS in terms of quality.
