the psp was ahead of its time so I will give it that especially with the features and stuff

Many ps2 equivalent games


But the switch just sold more and as a pure games console had better games

Pound for pound pound for the time psp

Overall switch but it’s not really fair because the switch is also a home console

PSP was waaay ahead of its time.
It felt like you could do anything on it. We was in class playing CDQ music, PS2 games etc.

Gonna put it like this, PSP was way over powered for its time, while switch has always been way underpowered.

The games on the switch always seem to miss. Very few games that made me actually give a fukk. Outside of like zelda and nintendo first party piff, do we even have good 3rd party? They've all been lackluster ports.

The indies were excellent some of the older games and less graphically intensive games and cartoony like South Park ran well on the switch.

A hacked switch can play psp… a psp cannot play switch.
A phone/PC can play switch if we are using that logic. I play the Nintendo switch version of Mario Kart on Yuzu :ehh: just can't play every Switch game. Switch emulation progress has stopped due to Nintendo threatening the developers lol.

Definitely the switch
Why is that? Would you say because of the games or what. Elaborate fam, would like to hear your perspective.

Good point though Red Dead Redemption is solid on switch most of their third party titles aren't it. Hades and Cuphead they say are great for switch as well if that's your cup of tea no pun intended.

First party stuff like Mario Kart 8, Luigi Mansion 3, Super Mario Odyssey, and Super Mario Wonder are their best.

Edit also their Zelda titles.
Vita baby
Lmao how? I never understand vita fans maybe I'll look through that systems catalog and play some of the games.

Are you an RPG head or something? Vita literally only had 150 games made for it. Sony gave up on it real quick

Edit: way more than 150 I was wrong. Decent library for such a short lived console.

You know its bad when you comparing a main generation console to a side piece handheld. :mjlol:But with that said I'll go PSP. A lot more games that I enjoy that could only be played on PSP while the games I would choose to play on switch I can play better versions on PC. Sony dropped the ball hard on the vita, if that shyt was treated like the psp that shyt would of been the GOAT handheld. The only real knock against the psp was that UMD shyt
