Let's end this discussion once and for all.

Which handheld had the best experience?

Anyone that says the Vita is a fucking moron.

I prefer the vita in my hands, liked the button layout better on the vita, the graphics better on the vita, overall just had a better experience on the vita, but the 3DS had games.

>experience
wtf does that even mean
If your talking about just playing the system, the vita is better in the hands, has dual actual analog sticks, original has an OLED screen, and the system is more powerful and the graphics are better.
Software is a different story.

Both. They both have provided a very great experience this generation. Though the Vita loses a few points memory card prices.

>that spoiler
Nice attempt at starting a pointless platform war.

I have a 2k, after about 2 hours it starts to hurt my eyes.

>"but the vita is a weeb machine!"
Why the fuck would anyone buy a Sony handheld otherwise? The first party, western games on it were mediocre and didn't sell as well as their console counterparts.

Vita is an amazing handheld as a system, feels powerful in your hands, however the 3DS has the better games.

It depends on what do you mean by handheld experience.

Vita is the stronger handheld but it got dicked over by Sony's incompetence.

3ds beating the Vita shows how capitalism doesn't work


We could all be enjoying monster hunter with amazing graphics and bettet online with dual analog on an oled screen.

Instead thanks to nintendrones we get unplayable PS1 graphics on a 240p screen.

My eyes literally fucking bleed while playing MH4 on the 3ds, it's garbage.

3dsduh

8th gen handhelds did nothing for me.

Not the Vita, not the 3DS. Of course I play my 3DS every few weeks, but this gen has been about console for me. It's just, the 3DS library isn't anywhere near as strong as the DS one was, so it feels weird to say 3DS is best, because it feels like a hollow, empty default win with no effort.

Too hard of a decision. If I were forced to pick one I'd rather have, it would be 3DS, but it would be incredibly painful knowing everything I'd be missing out on by not having a Vita.

Vita, duh! Just go look at NeoGAF for all the proof your need.

Vita TV is my #2 game system of all time.

I hope streetpass becomes more common once Mario Maker is released...online would make the port perfect though!

This. Although I will say the 3DS library was kinda better because the third party support it has was very good. Vita has a nice spread of games through, quite underrated, especially for niche games. Both were great systems. Nintendo understanda the philosophy behind the handheld ecosystem and design quit well, it's just a shame mobiles will take over both soon.

The 3DS library was still pretty dam awesome you have to admit when you look at it, many mainline games. It's the Vita library that couldn't hold a candle to the PSP's library.

Vita: Better device.

3DS: Better videogames console.

Only have a 3DS but sort of want to get a Vita now that hacking is progressing

vita

This right here.
Could not of said it better

Just buy both you fucking poorfag holy shit.

Vita has the specs

3DS has everything else, including games

>Neither have games hurr lol xD
I love being contrarian.

The Vita is a better machine and the 3DS has better games. If I had the choice to play my 3DS games on my vita I would never play My 3DS.

>240p

no thanks.

3ds with freeshop.

>there exist a universe where Nintendo and Sony joined up during the SNES days
>there exist a super handheld that has Pokemon, Monster Hunter, JRPGs, Dungeon Crawlers, etc on great hardware

Still playing my Vita while my 3DS collects dust

Honestly I would take those indie games over the japanese bullcrap anyday.
Imo both libraries suck. So vita will be better because of the homebrew/emulation.

I like both roughly equally

They both are great consoles that each have their own pluses. Sometimes I'll have my 3DS collect dust for 5 months, other times I'll have my VIta collect dust for 3 months. Just depends what new games are coming out.

3DS is the worst handheld ever created desu famalam
