Pocket Gamer's Peter Willington writes: Team Talks - our series of round-table discussions held over Skype - is back with a bang. Earlier today it all kicked off in the PG office, as several of the team weighed in on the pluses and minuses of the traditional portables from Nintendo and Sony.
While gamers usually take notice of the mainline missions, these 5 side quests deserve more widespread attention for how entertaining they are.
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
A new list goes over eight of the the most useless amiibo, ranging from the Shadow Mewtwo card to the Qbby figure.
both are winners.
but my vita gets played while my 3ds goes to my kids if its played.
if your a kid most likely your parents bought you a 3ds becuse its cheaper than the vita or because they know mario is killing turtles and srooms...while the vita costs more and you get uncharted where you can earn trophies for shooting a guy in the face. parents feel more comfortable with the ds (like the wii) because its less violence in its games and everyone has played mario I mean even my sister was hooked on it back in the day. thats the difference. but for the core to hardcore gamer vita is the ultimate machine. better power more quality games online support good enough to actually play against people who have the same game on a ps3, sim sports games like the show fifa and madden. indie games remakes of classics trophie support free ps+ games collection I mean I can go on. but I guess it really depends on what you like or what type of gamer you are. I personally will get killzone over pokemon .(anyone see the pokemon gameplay trailer? looks like the same shit just better visuals and to me thats a shame. really they need to upgrade that game ) this argument is going to go on and on but the truth is the 3ds will continue to outsell everything because its cheap and kid friendly while the vita will still produce games at a higher quality and aim for the hardcore gamer...plus the ps4 compatibility will make it even more useful....I cant wait to beat infamous SS on the toilet!
3ds hands down no competition.
I would take 3DS over Vita at the moment.
Let's see what the future brings for the two though.
I have both in my household. Each gets played by my kids but I find they don't actually use them much outside the house when out and about. They go through phases as to which one they prefer using but end of the day they all seem to gravitate back to the consoles, PC and tablets.
Personally after playing the Vita I could not see myself ever owning one. The controls were not made for adult hands so I found it uncomfortable to use for more than 5-10 minutes. Screen is fine but its difficult going from a tablet to a Vita for surfing the web, however, I would never use a Vita over a tablet for Web surfing anyway if I owned both. As a media player, god no, I am not going back to the days of having to convert my media to play back on a given device. For music, its actually pretty good but again PowerAmp on my tablet runs circles around the music app on the Vita.
For me the Vita and 3DS are both for kids and although they might provide me with a brief distraction from time to time I'll do my gaming on consoles and my PC and do all my media, app and internet surfing on my tablet.
i love them both, i play MH3U a LOT! and i also play Soul Sacrifice a LOT.
