PS3 has a lot of great games you would expect on a console, plus bluray support.

3DS has nothing really for now, but later a lot of fabulous games will be coming together with a revamped browser and app store.

I got myself the 3DS cuz I'm always out (the whole afternoon almost everyday) and my PS3 is now there sorta collecting dust (seriously no time to play but I love the games). So, yeah it depends on what you like and your 'situation'.

Well my PS3 has gone unused for a while, but it has a fair amount of good games.
It's worth getting a PS3 just to play Valkyria Chronicles.
Demon's souls is great too, though.
Probably some other games you could find you'd like.

3DS doesn't have any games right now (it's pulling a launch-PS3). It'd be more wise to get the PS3 with the coupon, and then eventually get a 3DS when, probably, more games are out.

I say go for the PS3 while the price is still good for it. It has some pretty fun RPGs if your that kind of person. Plus think of all the PS1 games you could catch up on if you missed out on them before! Besides the game playing aspect the Ps3 is a pretty good media player

and it upscales things nicely!

The 3DS at the moment doesn't really have anything going for it at the moment and is pretty costly but if your really willing to spend the money you have a great line up to look forward to for the year!

If you do go for the PS3 option some of the great exclusives are

Folklore - fun little Action RPG that has a delightful story line

Valkyria Chronicles - Decent tactical RPG that has a nice twist on tactical gameplay with a super narm of storylines!!!!

White Knight Chronicles - nothing to say

MGS4 - If you've played all 5 of the previous metal gear games before 4 (not including the PSP ones) 4 is a real treat but only if you have the past experience.

3D dot heroes - Classic zelda (Nes) style RPG.

Infamous - Really Nice sandbox game can't really put how awesome it is into words

If you go 3DS... Buy megaman legends 3 prototype :|
