Personally, I've had the 3ds. 2 actually. I have enormous hands you see, so i can't play on the little console. Everyone says I have ape hands or laborer hands lol. I'm really hoping for the Vita. Also, I don't like how Nintendo has been holding out on us. I keep getting rid of my 3ds's because there was nothing to play on it. I'm also not a big fan of Mario. Every game is the exact same thing and I've played just about enough of it. Hopefully the Vita has better luck and doesn't make the same mistakes Nintendo is making.

I think asking this question in the 3DS forum instead of General Consoles is gonna lead to your answer.

The 3DS looks to be a good alternative to the DS, honestly. It's got better features than the DSi and the analog slider is a good plus for any games that move in a 3D environment. I'd take it over a larger screen, honestly (and at the same price). As a standalone system, I wouldn't even start with it until sometime next year. Mario Kart 7 looks fulfilling by my standards and it has a few "candy bar" games (short but sweet) coming up but I'm still finding it lacking when it comes to a big meaty game, outside of the endless replayability of Tetris Axis. Wait for a Pokemon game to come out for that area to be filled.

I'm a Vita guy myself and crossplaying with a few games really helps quell my fears of the dreaded "dead zone" that was PSP online gaming. At least now you can play with PS3 owners of games (I think Wipeout and UMvC3 both support this, for instance). It's a bit pricier but if you were willing to shell out $250 for a 3DS then there's no issue. The new media kinda sucks but you buy one cart and you'll probably be set for your lifetime. I'm liking how it's coming out mostly, minus a few things but overall it's gonna be my handheld for the next gen. Maybe I'll get the 3DS cheap one day used and use it to replace my piece-of-shit DS Phat.

Really? I knew PSV supported cross-game voice chat with other Vita owners, but you can actually play against Wipeout players on the PS3?

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
