He loves video games, already has a xbox 360, Wii and a 3DS. We also have a PS3 in the living room, which he plans on occasion.
We have been trying to decide what to get him for his birthday this year. We usually like to get him one big thing and let the rest of the family by him some odds and ends. We tossed around ideas of a kindle fire HD, possibly a new cell phone(he really doesn't talk on the phone much yet, so I think the phone would go to waste, but it would give him access to mobile games)the PS vita, Wii U, or just getting him a few new games for the consoles he has.
Looks like the Vitas just dropped to $199, and I hear it will do some neat things with the PS4 when it arrives. But he does already have that DS and just bought himself 3 new games for the DS with some early birthday money he received. He does still like the "kiddie" style games on the DS, but he is also into more mature games of which the PS Vita seems to have more.
Just wondering what are the pros and cons of the vita? I have been reading reviews and a lot of people say its awesome, others say just play games on your phone.
