Get a vita
this console is dead as hell aside from homebrew
i own a psvita and i just use the PSP since that's the only system with no-hassle playstation emulation (since it's native) and most of the games that are on vita i own on PC, yet i still use the 3ds a lot because there's a lot of good-ass games on there
3ds is still thriving with community and lots of loving games, plus it's $100 cheaper than the vita
i recommend the 2DSXL over 2DS because you'll be missing out on some games that use the c-stick like binding of isaac
