Bye bye 3DS

Vita fans might be happy to know my Vita has replaced my 3DS as the console I carry around with me. Ran out of games to play on my 3DS ages ago, only carried it around for Streetpass. I bought Spyro and Abe's Oddysee from PSN after failing to get Adrenaline working and am quite enjoying playing them on my lunch break :-) Meanwhile my poor 3DS now lives in the odds and ends drawer.

"Ran out of games to play on my 3DS ages ago"
I think the real miracle is that you had games to play on it in the first place.

I just don't get this whole mindset of "i'll play this system now" I just play whatever system the game i want to play happens to be on. One week that'll be my vita, the next week my 3DS.

There was a thread asking people if they were going to play their 3DS now that switch is out. Couldn't understand that either.

@dimmidice Is nothing personal, is how people are, a game is a game. You play whatever you want, makes you happy, regardless of what you play it on. But assuming she has henkaku now with psp, and ps1 games and emulators, having more leverage that 3ds has with 3ds, nds (not using roms) and the virtual console games/emulators that may not really rival things.

Besides that, basically she is happy with the two games she mentioned that she may play 3ds again if a game she wants is available. :P

Perhaps she played 3ds enough that vita gets a turn, whatever her case is nothing personal, just how gamer are. A game is a game. :)

^ some gamers are different, i am like the OP and tend to stick with something until I got bored of it then move onto another console... doesn't mean i wont come back to one i was previously bored of though.

Vast majority of games on 3DS/Vita are exclusive though. between one or the other i mean.

I keep telling people, exclusives sell consoles... :ninja:
You buy the system to play the desired game, not the other way around. No one buys system for what it does, but what it can be played. Buy a playstation if you want uncharted, buy a xbox if you want halo, buy a nintendo if you want mario. Is simple. Buy a pc if you want FPS games. :P

". No one buys system for what it does, but what it can be played."
And this is where you're wrong, fam.
 
dimmidice
He's really not. Well technically he is wrong because he said "no one" but the spirit of his statement is correct. When the system is newly released then people look at the capabilities, but the further along you get the less it matters and the more people look at the games available on said systems. Which is why PSvita didn't so well. It has some very nice games certainly, but compared to 3DS it has a tiny library. Especially a tiny library of exclusives.

Yes, i know. I am known to say things that are wrong, i get over it. I also say things that are right but no one likes to point it out, i get over it. Reasons why opinins exist. :P

I hope we still see you around the 3ds forum section... I think you're a pretty good pal o/

I bought a vita when it was out, I played like 2-3 hours in total, not the best console imo.
the problem was there wasn't a lot of good games

You'll come back; they always come back. Fire Emburems, Ever Oasis, The Snack World, and Monsuta Huntaa+others change the heart, as you'll run out of Vita stuff by fall/winter.
