    If you are getting it now, I would advise getting the 3DS. It's over a year into it's life, and has a lot of great games already, with a ton of amazing titles around the corner. The Vita has few good games, and, to be honest, few promising upcoming titles in my opinion. Most of these upcoming games are on the same level of violence as Uncharted, the only exception I can think of being LittleBigPlanet, so if you can't play them, I would advise you to get a 3DS even more strongly.

    And if you can get no games with the Vita, compared to £150 of 3DS games, I 100% say you should get the 3DS. You might want to save some of that money for the great upcoming 3DS games though! ^____^

    Well, currently, the Vita is running pretty slow. There's not much games for it and not many people are even planning on making games for it. Not to mention its high price tag.

    Currently, the 3DS would be the best option. There's plenty of games, and plenty that are announced. Plus, it's a lot less expensive.

    Nintendo is currently focusing mostly on the 3DS, but the Vita just isn't getting enough attention. So if you want a Vita, I suggest waiting a year before buying one. I'm sure it'll have plenty of stuff by then. Why spend a fortune for something you won't use?

    nonononono don't sell your Wii. You use pounds, so you must live in Europe, right?
    Look into some games like Pandora's Tower, Xenoblade Chronicles, and Last Story. Believe me, after playing those games, you'll probably love your Wii the most.

    Keep in mind when you buy the Vita, you also need to buy a PSVita Memory Card and a game. With the 3DS, all you need is to buy a game since it comes with an SD Card. I have both the 3DS and the Vita, and it was the Vita that put the bigger dent in my wallet.

    Please remember the 3DS has been out a year longer than the vita.

    BLobbs30............
    I couldn't recommend you which one to get as they are both great machines, and even better for the 3DS now that they have decided to release a 3DS XL. The only advice I will give is to check out the games for both machines and see which ones you would really want to buy. I have more games for my Vita than the 3DS, only because there's more for the Vita than the 3DS that are my type. Also, don't forget there are heaps of old PSP games to download at a good price on the PSN store. Last of all, now that the 3DS XL is out shortly, the older 3DS's will fall even more in price. Check out this...

    Well considering your writing I would say the 3DS because you sound more like a Nintendo Fanboy, not wanting to sell your Wii. Also Psvita etc is meant for hardcore games in other words shooters etc unlike the 3DS. The 3DS only has a few shooters but lots of other games that still offer loads of fun. The 3DS can pretty much do everything the Vita can with the 3D! Also I would reccomend to get the new 3DSXL.

    Must get:
    Rayman Origins(preferable on a console and bigger screen versus 3ds)
    Mario(SM3DL is a bit short, but more games are on the way (New super mario bros 2 and paper mario)
    Zelda (OoT is good)
    Littlebigplanet is great and is a definite must buy. LBP Vita and Also Lbp Karting (ps3 only as of right now) are coming out soon


    Stardust is ok, but I don't go crazy over it. I would rather play something else.
    What kind of racing games? (i.e. karting, sim. {think gran turismo}, burnout, etc.)
    Pokemon is fun, but I haven't played any in years.

    Which Ridge Racer and Asphalt games? The 3ds ones were a bit meh.
    What's TM stand for?
    I as never into GT or F1.
    There's a new NFS game coming out soon (Most wanted 2) and is being made by Criterion (bunrout makers) and I've heard that basically, the game plays just like Burnout Paradise, except with cops.
