Should I buy the 3DS or PSV? 3DS owners, please enter

You want to play console games on a handheld? Go to VITA

You want to play handheld games on a handheld? Go to 3DS.

Not really. The PS Vita has "handheld" games such as Little Deviants, Lumines. Games that could be both like Hot Shost Golf and Wipeout. People keep mentioning the same 3 games over and over again Mario, Maio Kart and RE Revelations because the majority of 3DS games worth playing besides those are ports.

Also Mario Kart and Mario started on consoles. RE Revelations could be considered a console like experience on the 3DS.

tried 3D effect the first day I bought the 3ds and felt a bit uncomfortable after spending few hours using it.

I now only play the games in 2D

Coolyfett will get the Vita, it is just a better investment overall, plus all PSP software that Coolyfett owns will also operate on the Vita. All Coolyfett has to do is transfer all PSP software over to the Vita. Coolyfett has about 6 titles on the PSP that he has not completed, plus it will be nice to finally get in on this trophy system that the PS3 gamers seem to really enjoy. It makes more sense to just upgrade if you are on a budget. If one has money to blow, Coolyfett says get both and sell your older systems.

Get 3DS for the games of course, the game library is like infinitly better than Vita one

It is all about the games

Agreed. You wouldn't go wrong with the 3DS just for Super Mario 3D Land + Mario Kart 7 + Backwards Compatibility with all DS Games.

The problem with the Vita is that it doesn't play UMD's. It's not like you can just pop in your old PSP games and expect them to work.

Wow, are you sure about this? It doesn't make any sense that Sony doesn't make the Vita backwards compatible. I was positive it had BC. This is HUGE if true!

Why would you even think the 3D effect would damage your eyes

But you should buy the 3DS I think its better

3DS will ( should ) be getting a new model sometime next year. I would get the Vita for now and hold out for the new 3DS design (Extra circle pad among other things).

Buy whatever platform has games that are more fitting to your personal tastes. Do your own reseach. it's not hard.

I am a person who was skeptical about the 3DS but after buying I have to say that it is a great machine, and as people have said over and over again, Ninty know how to differentiate their handheld games and console games, so you get a different experience from the two, something which I fear will happen again for the Vita as it did with the PSP. godfather_1

Because, as we all know, there's just a world of difference between MK, 2D Mario, Fire Emblem, Paper Mario, and Animal Crossing on Ninty's handhelds and home consoles. >_>

But I will agree that there have been differences made between the Zelda games last gen. That's not a good thing at all, though. Because the DS games were really tiresome and boring.

OT: Buy both.

[QUOTE="Coolyfett"]Sony has Mod Nation & Little Big Planet to answer those titles. Many people love Little Big Planet.
