It's the Nintendo 3DS, and it will always be the Nintendo 3DS, no matter how many of these polls are made.

If anyone chooses the Vita over the 3DS, they are either delusional or don't actually enjoy playing games.

Vita as a gaming device: no games, rehashes, ports (3DS better at the moment, iOS devices arguably better as well).

Vita as a media device: clunky interface, slow browser, proprietary and expensive memory, have to convert media to be usable on it (iPhone/iPad, Nexus 7 infinitely better).

Vita = great hardware, crappy everything else.

3DS because of the games. I think its a wash between the poor DA position on Vita and the little screen on 3DS. With the 3DS XL coming out their will be no question that its better than Vita.

Vita = better hardware, but currently lacks good games.

3ds = Currently has a biger game library, but I cannot stand the 3d screen bugs my eyes.

So this is why I'll end up with a Vita at some point.

3DS is doing the best with itself at the moment, but Vita has the more potential. If only it would live up to it.

Vita is such a better system. 3DS has it beat in current and upcoming games though. Sony need to up their game.

I can't believe the 3D screen is still an issue, you don't have to use the 3D, I have only used it once or twice, I prefer my games in 2D.

If i didnt hate handheld gaming, i would definitely get the 3DS. It has games and its cheaper. Only the most fanatical cows will pick the PS Vita.

The problem is I really don't like any of the 3DS games (other than Mario Land 3D and Mario Kart). it's been over year since the thing came out and aside from RE, Metal Gear Solid, Kid Icarus, and Zelda, the 3DS really doesn't seem to have any other noteable games.

3DS is a better system. I have one and enjoy it daily. But that doesn't mean I dislike the Vita. I plan to get one. Just not at its current price. Also note that being extremely pessimistic about its long term prospects is not the same as "wanting it to fail" as so many fanboys readily accuse me of.

The eshop games are great, but I'm talking about the full-on 3DS games that you buy in stores. Those are the ones that really count for me.

Fair enough, I have used the 3DS in 2d mode. Maybe its a stupid reason, but i feel kinda dumb turning off the 3d since its one of the main features of the system. To me the 3DS just does not feel like a significant upgrade from the DS. For that reason and more importantly the fact that the games so far have not appealed to me are why I'll get a Vita probably in a couple of months.

if you mean by sales, it will always be 3DS. i'd eat a hat if it turned out Vita somehow caught fire and went nuts in sales.

if you mean software, for the time being it'll be 3DS.

if you mean my enjoyment, what Saudifury likes, i love the Vita by quite a long mile. I got 5 games on it so far (MGS HD, Gravity Rush, Rayman, Escape Plan, and Uncharted : Golden Abyss) and i'm really enjoying it a lot. I got 3 3DS games (Tales of Abyss, Ace Combat, and Mario 3D Land). but i tend to really love the Vita a lot more, and i would love to see more hardware coming out for it.

PSone support, and full digital PSP support should of been available right at the get go. and call my a conspiracy theorist if one must, but i believe the reason they are not there, is either licensing, or to be able to stagger out 'content' available for Vita in between droughts of new software.

I like my 3DS, glad i got it, plan on playing Kingdom Hearts and buying Epic Mickey and Luigi's Mansion 2, but yeah. Vita i really love and enjoy.

I own both. I choose the 3DS because of the games. I also feel that the button layout on the 3DS is more comfortable. A second analog would be nice but not at the expense of button size and comfort. I do still enjoy the 3D so there is that too. I like everything else about Vitas screen more though. The resolution on the 3DS screen is too low. Especially after using the iPad with retina display for a while now. The rear touch control on the Vita is usless. The battery life is better though. So I guess it is kinda close.

Honestly? I've not really enjoyed my 3DS since Mario Land 3D. Even Revelations just barely scratched my itch, and everything since...meh. It just feels so dated, so cheap, so uncomfortable to use, and the games feel like rehashes (although admittendly ML3D was effing AWESOME). I dunno, embarrassing as it reads, I actually really prefer my Vita. The hardware, the games, the screen size / quality...it's just what I want in a handheld these days. Last gen, though, the DS Lite humped everything else into oblivion.

I like my Vita. Played it every day since launch because of Everybody's Golf. Just played the Gravity Rush demo today and I can't believe it got 6.5. Ordered it right away.
