Seriously there's so much wrong with the Vita design I don't know where to start... Is it really even a portable? It's not going to fit in any pocket and the battery will last you like 2 hours if you want good brightness and online. On top of that you're going to see a lot of games that are ported from consoles - they're not designed to be fun in short bursts, and you usually can't even save that often. Nothing but fail from every company in the last 6 years...
Shut the fuck up man. God, I respect oppinions, but everything you just said is just bullshit.
Portable aren't things that you put inside your pocket, but things that have a battery and you can carry around with you. A fucking notebook is a portable. A Fucking HUGE Ipad is a portable. Portable != POCKETABLE.
It's funny you're talking about battery life, when no portable on the market has more than it... 3DS is just the same, with the lowest bright, 3D off, Wi-Fi off. It's ALSO the same time as PSP1000, the first iteration of the PSP. There's still room to improvement in the future, in both portables.
The last part gave me cancer. You're saying you didn't played hours of NSMB on the DS (that's also has a version on the bigger consoles)? Don't see LoZ: OoT 3D as a great game for 3DS? Starfox 64 3D, a enhanced port of a fucking N64 game. Resident Evil Revelations, which would be better suited for a console too, in your logic. That's bullcrap. Portable gamers have, since Gameboy, played console type of games on the go for the last 20 years.
This shit you said about short bursts is valid for SMARTPHONES, an "all-in-one" device, which is also used for gaming.
