I think Im going to lay it all on the line for Sony and the Vita...

Im going to sell my 360 and games to have money for a Vita. Its not something I particularly WANT to do, I like having the Xbox and all, but I think it'll be worth it. I just dont play it like I used to, and Im hardly ever home as it is, so the Vita just seems right. Does it seem crazy to sell my only current gen home console just to buy a handheld? Anyone else do anything similar?

I plan on dropping a fair amount of cash on the Vita, so I really hope it ends up being worth it. If it ends up at least as good as the PSP then I'll be happy. I still play that thing.

I could wait if I really wanted to, theres definitely a backlog waiting for me on every console I own. But the Vita is just extremely enticing, and Im interested in it a lot.

That said, enjoy the wait. I would think you'd be able to get similar prices about a year after launch (like the 3DS) but Sony isnt usually one for logic, as much as it pains me to say. I really expect another PS3 scenario with the Vita, but Im hoping for the best, and something is telling me to buy it early.

If you don't play the system very much then i say go for it. I was actually thinking about selling off my PS3, as after Twisted Metal the system is pretty much at the end of the line for me.

I just feel like any gaming I do in my life is on my phone, which is cool because I have an Xperia Play and emulators for days, but my console is just collecting dust. I want Halo 4 and Borderlands 2 this year. But by the time they come out I could have money for another xbox (hell, maybe even that sexy star wars one). I just see it as a waste of space right now. I likely wont use it between now and the fall.

Makes me mad I finally bought a year] of Live back in August though.

It does look sweet. But the more I think about it seriously, the more I think I might just get a 3DS and wait for it to develop a little more. Though I do love the Vita and will absolutely buy one. That way I wont have to sell my Xbawks.

I would say go for it, but I am quite biased. My suggestion to you is just to make sure you've thought over this decision. It's not exactly a life-altering decision either way, though.

I wouldn't do that but if you never played your 360 anymore then there's nothing wrong with that. There aren't many good games right now that you can get though.

I went ahead and bought a 3DS (couldnt resist that Gamestop sale), and I'll stick with my PSP for a while, since that's all Id have played on the Vita for a good while anyway. I hope it does well though and has a strong library of games by the time I pull the trigger and buy one. Im still looking forward to it like crazy.
