    PSVita is alive and well thank you. Pull your head out of your butt and take a look at Persona 4 Golden, Sound Shapes, Assassins Creed Liberation, Little Big Planet Vita, Escape Plan, Super Star Dust Delta, Uncharted Golden Abyss, Wipeout 2048, Motorstorm Rc, Hot Shots Golf World Invitational, Playstation AllStars Brawl, Dokuro, Lumines Electronic Symphony, just to name a few games you obviously are ignoring.

    3DS does not have a better line up of games, that is just pure nonsense of the highest order.

    On the verge of death within the next 2-3 years, I'm guessing.

    No it isn't. It's lying sick in the hospital bed though.

    Dead? No. In trouble and in desperate need of Sony to pull their head of out their ***** and get it in gear? Yes.

    The PS Vita. Maybe Sony should change the name of the Vita to something else.

    Vita will start slow and have a long life that builds up over time, very similar to the PSP.

    I don't see that happening. Vita is tracking no where near the PSP.

    Not at all, the Vita is actually getting a better and better library all the time, and IMO it's better than the 3DS library overall. For me the Vita offers better games, with things like PS1 classics I can play FF7-FF9, Chrono Trigger/Cross and other great games on the go. I also like Gravity Rush and Golden Abyss and All-Stars, also as a Plus Member I get access to the entire Vita library for FREE! That is an attractive offer.

    The 3DS has good games as well, but it just compete with the PS1 classics. And the system it's self I find uncomfortable, the 3D hurts my eyes (my eyes are sensitive) and the lack of second analog sucks. The Vita is perfect as far as system designs go, my only complaint is that Sony over prices it's memory cards, but other than that the Vita is the way to go for me.

    The Vita will be successful just like the PSP was, just needs some time. I bet if Sony lowered the price on those memory cards more people would buy it.

    No that was only part of my argument, you didn't read the other parts.

    And PS1 games is a big deal to me, FF7 is my number one favorite game of all time. The thought of being able to play that on a hand held device is just amazing. FF7 on the go, you can't beat that.

    Ports of old games or crappy ports of new games aren't enough. Third parties are bailing out. Sony needs to put real money behind their games on Vita. The problem is Sony doesn't have the resources for this. They are literally hanging on a thread for dear life.
