  • Today we are comparing a modded 3ds vs a modded ps vita in 2024. Both systems when modded make the system feel more alive than ever. We go over what you can do with a modded 3ds and modded ps vita, memory options for a modded 3ds and modded ps vita, current pricing for each system, and which one I prefer.

      Oled steamdeck over the legion all day. Legion is like carrying a brick no thanks. I don't give a rats ass how powerful it is. Oled steamdeck is the best for bang for our buck. Second would be the modded ps vita and modded 3DS. Then tons of emulator hand heads according to budget and its perks. These like Asus rog and legion are just overrated. Especially the legion and its price and its obnoxious size. Asus rog and legion battery are bs, steam deck oled is not as powerful but it gets the job done on many levels and price and repairs is top notch, compared to when Asus rog and legion breakdown. I took back both rog and legion after 6 days both times. Oled steamdeck is the quietest and has best battery.

    Vita! PSP plays natively since it has psp hardware inside the vita. You have the entire library of ps1, psp and vita on the palm of your hand without any issues. The portability of it is just wonderful, I always carry the vita anywhere than my switch or 3DSXL since it has MvC3 almost a 1:1 port of the ps3 version. The fighting game library of the vita is top notch. Also incase you have analog problems, the vita's analog sticks can easily be replaced.

    Toughest call, they don’t have a lot of overlapping content, so ideally both would be good. They just have different kind of games, so I think it all comes down to what type of games you like to play.

    • @iBMcFly

      The 3ds library is better than the PsVita library hands down, but the PsVita can play every PlayStation game from ps1-ps5 through ps3/4/5 connect play, and downloading eboots/ISOS.
      The modding community is better on the vita.
      I like the two screens and being able to play a plethora of Nintendo games on the 3ds. I can play NES-N64 games on the vita though thanks to the aforementioned modding community.
      It’s a tough call tho, I have several of each and I find my using the vita mode but I’d pick the 3ds if I had to make a choice.

    I've had both since 2012 and I loved my time with them. There are times when I'd play my Vita more and other times my 3DS and vice versa. The one thing I've always loved about the Vita was its display. I also wished the Vita had gotten more support and more games. I was more annoyed that the Vita got a lot of the same games as the 3DS instead of the console versions as often times these games didn't push the Vita at all. Although some games were just flat out better on the Vita like Sonic and All Stars Racing Transformed. I had that game on Vita and Wii U and I always gravitated to the Vita version because it's visual compromises weren't that bad compared to the Wii U and the game ran well. The 3DS version was not good as I tried it via the eShop Demo

    I can't pick whichever one is better since both are great handhelds that offer forms of gameplay the other simply lacks. 3DS has 3D, dual screens and a pretty robust library. Vita has really crisp graphics, touch screen and pad, and while having a modest library of games, the majority of those can be compared to console titles.
    I have both and have sank hundreds of hours into both and will continue to do so. I might look into Pretendo at some point and I hope after Sony shuts down online for the Vita, we get a Pretendo for the Vita. Just my two cents.

    Both these consoles are great, but you can’t really compare them.
    In my eyes you can never compare Nintendo with the other gaming companies, since they are so exclusive. If you like Nintendo games, get a modded 3DS. If you like PSP games, get the PS Vita.
    But if you have a switch and want to play several Ds ports without paying the whole price, get a 3DS and mod it. Would be cheaper than to get 4 or 5 of these ported games. And you can play the good Pokemon games

The vita definitely falls short when it comes to the vita games libraries, but you can play android ports, and emulate a ton of other consoles.

    About Vita, it's like has 4 God games, the rest it's meh, or ports, but hasn't original games, and emulators are meh either. But it's the best to wear everygame.
