Curious: The Stallion (yes, that's what I'm calling it) seems like a PS3 on the go, and as a PS3 owner it really turns me off.

Personally, I'm head over heels for the 3DS-- completely opposite experience of what I'm used to and I am dying for the huge DS backlog

Yup.

I can play games on my phone if I want and it is a helluva lot easier to lug around than a bulky handheld - which don't fit too well into a normal sized pocket.

Depends on the actual hardware. I have seen a few 3DS's but don't ever use the 3D aspect because I get headaches if I use it for longer than like 15 minutes. >.>

I am not really interested in the Vita for the time being. Something about it just doesn't seem right. I like that they finally listened to us, but one touch screen and then a touch pad, along with buttons? Sheesh. Something tells me I'm going to have cramps trying to get all the aspects to work.

I actually tend to agree. When I'm on the go, I'm on the go. I don't go out to run errands and then suddenly decide I want to play games. When I'm home, of course, it's different, and I'd rather play games on a console or PC when I'm at home than a tiny little screen with tiny little buttons. On the rare occasion that I am made to wait somewhere, my iPhone serves its purpose wonderfully. I've really never understood the appeal of handheld mobile gaming. But lots of people enjoy it, so more power to them, I guess. Suffice it to say that I won't be getting Sony's new portable.

I have all the systems this gen and just got a 3DS on launch day, but from what I've seen so far the PSVita is impressive. I may just get it :)

Yes.

I like the idea of being able to play an HD quality game without having to turn on a HDTV. I like the fact that it has two analog sticks (which is actually pretty innovative), theres a possibility that PS2 Classics similar to PS1 classics will be added to the PSN in the future.


I also will buy the 3DS if there is a game that comes out that I want to play on it. But the hardware itself does not interest me.

You must wear some tight jeans....Both the PSP and DS fit fine to me. The DS more so because of the closed cover.

Yes, I like portable gaming and since I had a blast with my psp then I don't see why I wouldn't pick this up.

Oh god no. The WIi was possibly the most generic and lame name for a console.

DS backlog is pretty worthless to me as I've played like 99% of DS games I care about. So far all the 3DS has is somehow more console ports/versions than the original PSP.

I'm waiting to see the line up before I decide. From the looks, the 3DS is making the same mistakes the PSP originally did, simply being console games on the go. Hopefully the PSVita has a good launch lineup.

I'm not interested in handheld consoles. I have a PSP (It was a gift) and i used it once in 2 years. I don't see the point of it if i'm home as i can play on my PS3 or PC. And when i'm outside, playing games is the last thing i have in mind.

I'd like one but after buying the 3DS, I don't see myself buying anymore gadgets for a long while. If the Vita some how beats out the 3DS in terms of games eventually, then I'll cop it for a much cheaper price.:)

That is really sad. How are you going to deal when the controller for your home system is a hand held system?

Coolyfett is with you moneygrip...Coolyfett keeps his wallet and psp in the same front pocket and he has the PSP 1000. All Coolyfett rocks is the basic wranglers from Wal Mart. not too tight, but they not rap star baggy either so....

Well, right now, and for the foreseeable future, given the line up both present and future, and particularly the cost, 3DS isn't even on my radar. It has next to nothing I want, and is grossly overpriced to boot. As far and NGP, or PSP2, or Vita or whatever it is called, I'm a lot more interested in it. It has some titles I'm actually interested in already, and the capability to be a real good system in the future. Price is a big decider for me though.

I own a ps3, and yes i am interested in the stallion (i kind of like that name...), I am liking some of the games they showed for launch. Looking forward to: UC:GA, sound shapes, little deviants, wipeout, and stardust.

I ll probably get it, since i m very hyped for it. But i ll have to wait to see how long the battery will last, its media capabilities, and if it will fit in my pocket :)
