Honestly I feel like the whole console is backwards from the freedom you had with the PSP, plus with sony not bringing much titles to it (besides jrpgs), or even really advertising the damn thing, I just feel like the 3DS is the better handheld. Besides it actually being the dominant handheld on the market, not being affected by tablets and smartphones, the first party games are better, the memory/storage solution is practical and inexpensive, it's gimmick work well on the newest iteration, additional buttons and stick offer better control in newer titles. It's a great handheld where as with the vita your main benefit towards having it seems to be only when you have a ps4. I ain't knocking the system but with all that great hardware it's not best handheld on the market. Sony needs to work on it more.

The 3ds has some cool games like pokemon, smash bros, and other good games. The PS vita could be used as a controller(if you have a Play station) but most of the games are from japan and weird

Had both. Sold both. Bought 3DS again and loved it ever since
