hi im new to the sony community i bought a ps2 with my own money and my dad has a ps1 on the basement but thats about for sony devices in the house i really have a mixed bag of consoles i have a wii,wii u, xbox 360, pc, 3ds (these have accumulated over the years) so i love my 3ds i like the great Pokemon games and stuff but I've been thinking a lot about they sony side and for a handheld and i am considering the vita. the reason i dont want to get it is bc the Nintendo switch is coming out and i really dont want my parents to pay for a pre-paid card for psn when they already pay the phone bill and for Xbox live. im so lost right now i dont know what to do any and i mean ANY options will be appreciated

I'd be awfully tempted to just wait on the switch at this point. you could also check out a used PSP and get it hacked and check out all the PSP catalogue, which is huge, varied and great

Depends on the games you want. If you want the PS4 exclusives, then get a PS4. If you want the upcoming Nintendo games, save up for the Switch. You could buy anything you want. Just know what games you want to play first. We can't play 'em all. Tried it. haha.

Like some people said, its up to your preference.

BUT!

Let me hit you with a pro and cons list.

Ps4
Pros:
Great exclusives.
Good quality.
Cons:
Not much games for that console.
You have to pay for online.

PsVita:
Good exclusives(not so great though).
Good framerate and quality.
Can be hacked and used as a very strong emulator device.
Cons:
Barely any games in that console.
Barely any online interaction in games.
Price is high for console and games.

Switch:
(I cant make a pro and cons list with a co sole thats not even released...sorry )

you can probably find a psp 2000, or a psp go for $50 or less. have it hacked in 10 minutes or less, and then browse thru the hundreds of good games available for it (not including all the SNES and PS1 games you can play on it as well)

    That's a relief to hear. Do you know what happened?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Any idea what happened? I hope that your brother's doing good.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    He couldn't eat until after his MRI, when he had a bomb pop.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    What matters now is that he's doing alright.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But you still don't know what it was?
  • Veho @ Veho:
