I was just looking at the Vita and the release titles tonight. Very
underwhelmed. I don't know what I was expecting. I was hoping for a top
notch racer, a solid shooter, and something out of leftfield. Nil out of
three then. I think the days of a hand held gaming device which isn't a
smart phone are gone.

Wait, if you wanted a top notch racer and a solid shooter, a smart phone
seems like a very poor bet to find one on...

I've been having a blast with my Nintendo 3DS. Super Mario 3D Land is
an amazing game, and Resident Evil: Revelations is a whole lot of fun.

I too have been underwhelmed by the PlayStation Vita, but I was
expecting that. As soon as it became clear that Sony was just trying
to do more of the same, just with better graphics, I lost a lot of
interest. The 3DS may not be a powerhouse system, but at least the
games are interesting.

The thing about the Vita that makes it seem unappealing to me is that
it's _huge_ ... it seems wrong to call it a "portable" system at all,
really; maybe something more for using on the couch at home.
