It's just plain unfair to compare the 3DS's screen(s) to the Vita's. Hell, it's unfair to compare nearly ANY screen in the handheld and smartphone market to it, it's one of the Vita's brightest points both figuratively and literally! The only thing less fair than this comparison are the pro-smartphone fanboy commenters here. Only cults and communist parties should have this blindly loyal of a following that can be beaten upside the head with lazy, overly simplistic games, bad controls, and knockoffs that have been free in flash form for years but are an AMAZING deal now that they cost $0.99, yet STILL praise smartphones as the penultimate portable gaming experience even if they can't stand playing a single game for more than 5 minutes at a time.
Gosh, should I buy a console stuck in this generation or upgrade my PC so it'll last through this generation and penetrate a bit into the next? Both have their own exclusives but seeing how badly Nintendo let me down with the Wii it looks like I'm jumping ship with their consoles. I'll go with the 3DS (and PlayStation Pita) but that's all, fare thee well.
Gamespot can post an article favoring- but I get a suspension for suggesting- oh whatever... Also, the PS3 isn't all that powerful, even at launch it was dated tech so don't act giddy at the (limited) prospects. You also forgot to mention how terrible the PC gaming scene is now, with loads of poorly optimized multi-platform games, increasingly scarce dedicated servers, and that dreaded "consolization" due to the lousy sales/piracy ratio.
By now I think the only people who can make a decent looking PS3 game are first and second party developers, but really the only Sony franchise that I'm a fan of is Gran Turismo (which betrayed me by ditching the PSP). I'd get the Wii if it wasn't sold out everywhere, and I KNOW I'll end up with red ring syndrome if I go with the 360. My last option is PC, which I upgraded when Oblivion came out. Needless to say, my PC is out of date.
