JM3000 · **Posted:** Sat Apr 28, 2012 11:47 am

I googeled about the screen size of the 3DS and Vita,and i cant belive that the 3DS screen size is small or did i misunderstand something.

I maked a pic of the upper screen size and bottom screen.

Upper Screen and Lower Screen::

"Spoiler" : Show

I think i failed but the infos says that i am right

Is that the size of the 3DS or not?

And Vitas size is 5 inch but idk if its diagonal or width so i didnt make an pic of it

for some reason that picture makes the screen look really small, its not that bad when your holding it in your hands.
if you can find a demo unit you can see how big the screen is for yourself. i've had no problems with the screen size so far

also the vita screen is only about 1.5 times bigger than the 3DS screen if i hold them side by side

Both the bottom screen and the upper screen are bigger than what you posted. I thought you had already played with a DS? You should at least know the size of the bottom screen.

Yeah i did and they really looked bigger then this.
I think ill borrow friends DS and compare it again.
The 1st DS is the same size as 3DS right,just the upper screen is a lil bigger?

The bottom screens have the exact same size and resolution.
