I have a 3DS and PSP, and all I gotta say is.... Depends on your what you prefer. Do you like Nintendo games, or Sony games? If there's a game that hasn't come out yet, but it catches your attention, then go look at trailers. If there's a game that has already been released and you want to know if it's good, go watch gameplays and at least 2 episodes of walkthroughs (to not spoil everything) on YouTube, and base your decisions on that. If you're still not sure, then look at some (not all reviews tell everything, and they sometimes forget to mention some things like side-quests, longevity, etc) reviews. For me, personally, I would get a PSP because there's a LOT of available games, from Minis to over 80 PS1 classics to hundreds of PSP games. Its better to wait till November or December if you want a 3DS, since Mario and a bunch of other quality games will be out by then. Vita, on the other hand, is a piece of machinery that I will be getting day one! Uncharted, LBP, Wipeout, etc with near PS3 quality graphics in my hands? Yes, please!!
