Im going with the 3DS to be honest because im used to the nintendo's gaming library, I do like the aesthetics of the vita but nothing beats nintendo, I mean they are the base of most of my childhood, although because of Sony I feel sad playing alone and I feel happy playing with other people. So 3DS considering the upcoming games.

Vita looks promising and it has a sweet lineup.

Both, though I'm going to concentrate on the 3DS for another year or two before getting a Vita.

Loved my PSP, so the Vita is my first option. 3DS looks interesting, but I'm going with PSV first. Aside from that, one of my favoirte games has been confirmed, Resistance, can't wait.

Wasn't impressed with the PSP and I'm currently not impressed with Vita in terms of games. So 3DS because I love Nintendo and their games. I'll probably get Vita once it gets games I'm interested in. Love the specs and price of the Vita though.

I'll be getting a 3DS for sure at some point. I'm a massive Pokemon fan and it can't be played anywhere else. The Vita has the tech, but why would I want to play games that are dumbed down console games. Plus, the two analog sticks look like an ergonomic nightmare.

The Vita looks promising, but I'm afraid it might just be the PSP all over again. I literally haven't picked mine up in years. If the Vita can get some good games, then I might purchase one. Same with the 3DS, but nothing really jumps out at me on the system. Obviously, the Vita will have better graphics. And I find the 3DS a bit gimmicky. So I guess the Vita, but I could care less either way. I'll stick to my consoles.

I haven't done any handheld gaming since the gameboy advance. The PSVita looks like it might be the one to draw me back in, the only thing the 3DS has that I would want to play is pokemon. The whole 3D without glasses is cool but i would actually need to play one to form an opinion on the 3D.

......so much wrong with this response. So you'd rather play dumbed down console games on the 3DS instead? And...two analog sticks is...a BAD THING NOW?

Two analog sticks are cool but to be honest the games dont look very promising. Most games seem more like ports of the ps3 versions.

To me it's like playing the game in a fish tank. Water looks great in Steel Diver. I like how Pilotwings looks with 3D on, but find the game more difficult to play with it. Excitebike I think makes the best use. Moving the 3D slider moves the background forwards or backwards. Looks neat to me. The Star Fox 64 remake video looks awesome though. I found myself going "wow that's awesome." Either way I felt the original DS platform was great without 3D, so how could a beefed up DS be bad? The library needs time to grow. I'm not sure why so many people are impatient and complaining about it. The DS's library will take an awful lot of time to catch up to.

I'm getting the VITA. It impressed me and I like the line up. Nintendo's gaming library doesn't interest me at all. I've had my fat DS ever since (somewhere around that time) launch and I've only gotten 4 games for it. I still can't find another game I would like to play on the DS.

I find this notion hilarious, so far the 3DS has been pretty disappointing. The PSP had quite a few great games worth playing, but people put too much into name and brand than actually caring about games. :roll:

3ds. It's not that I dislike the vita or what it will offer (a lot of which looks really cool), I just prefer what naturally comes with a nintendo handheld.

considering that the 3ds and psv are retailing at pretty much the same price point and that i loved the psp, i will go with psv.

3DS for now, too many good games coming to pass up on. The Vita I will be getting for sure, though.

Probably both, because my wife is starting to get interested in a 3DS, but for me, it's the Vita. Been liking what I'm seeing, and the game library so far looks tight. Plus, the PSP was great and had a great line up of games.

The Nintendo 3DS looks like it has a much better line up and the virtual console is a nice addition. Backwards compatability is also a very good feature.I expect to have a 3DS by the end of the year. I have no plans to buy a vita at all yet. Tactics Ogre: Let us Cling Together is making a compelling case for the PSP right now though.

Lol I was thinking the samething, only in reverse. I won't fall for another Nintedno handheld (DS Lite) and gonna stick with Sony this time around.

I can't wait to get my hands on the Vita. I figure betewwn that and the HTC Evo 3D when I get it, my handheld gaming will be great this gen. Another thing I do not like about Nintendo is how they take forever to drop the prices of their games. So in order to game on the 3DS, I will actually be spending more to do so. Then there is the movies, music, ect. ect. that the Vita does that the 3DS doesn't. Plus we all know the online experience is going to be WAAAAAAY better for the Vita compared to the 3DS. And there is always the games. The 3DS has no games I want. Only game it has now that I would buy (if I didn't already own it on GC that is) is OoT. When I look at the Vita, it has 5 games that interest me. I can see me getting a 3DS also, but not until it drops to $160-$200.
