DS rules

[PapaBurger]

They both suck equally right now. When more games come out, I'll buy one (most likely the DS though)

[PinkFloydYoshi]

DS. I want a console that will work 100% of the time. Not 5% of the time straight out the box.

I sense this is in the wrong forum.

DS, it has more games I want, and I actually think the touch screen is a good idea on it, unlike so many PSP fanboys..

PSP is a sexy machine, no doubt about that... but there aren't any games I want on it, and if I wanted a portable machine that could play games, display images, play movies, and play music, I'd buy myself an Alienware Laptop PC instead.

Couldn't have said it any better myself, really .

Definetely DS. I left my Camoflague DS on overnight, and the batteries didn't fail to impress me. I picked it up and finished my game in the morning.XD

It's an easy choice, really.

PSP -> 1 screen.

DS -> 2 screens.

Why would you bother with anything else?

I'm with DS. PSP is a nothing in my vision (although I luv Armored Core series... :3 ), and a very... um... how to say: "unstable" hardware, too. Like all Sony things...

And don't forget that bottom screen is touch sensitive - that lets you to do things like this:

i bet wario's in heaven. defently ds. my friend got a psp, and he didnt want it so he returned it for 3 tennis raquets. (how ever you spell that word.)

The PSP is actually not that bad, I know a few people who own a PSP and I have used one, I have found most of the PSP rumors are untrue. The battery life is longer than the 3 hours most people claim, the square button does not stick, and the disk will not pop out unless you try to break the PSP; There are quality problems with many out of the box though. So will I get one? Yes...if the price drops, because it is great, but not $280 great.

Even if the price drops down to $199, I'll still have trouble parting with (What estimates to) £100. I'm having trouble parting with it just to get a DS, but after everything I've heard, it scares me that I might be wasting my time getting a psp when all I'll most likely use it for is it's mp3 player functions, and my N-Gage does me great for that. I dont give two hoots about the huge screen. It's the quality of the games thats pumped out for it, and if the games are crap, well, the console wont sell.

$280? I thought it was going to be more than that. My N-Gage cost more than that brand new.

I dont care if this sounds tratoris, unless they make the greatest zelda game in the world I will say I like the psp b/c in my opinion the touch screen is a cool idea but I will break it easily and it gets all scratched to where you cant see it well, and the psp may have its flaws, but I still would pick the psp plus psp can play movies I think that is awesome b/c its smaller then a portable dvd player, and I dont have a tv in my room, or the living room the only dvd is my playstation and that is in cherrys room and I need somthing in mine to watch movies ^_^ advent children when it comes out

not to be mean, but you can get a pretty good waranty for your touch screen when you first buy your ds. also, for the psp you cant just stick in any dvd. dosent it have to be inside a certain cartrage? i mean its cool and all to watch a dvd on your psp, but at the same time you could be watching tv series on your gbasp better yet, your ds. anyway, the psp only has about max 5 hr. of play time. you get a movie, it drains close to half of it.

the psp really dosent impress me. i bet you can buy a portable dvd player, a cheap mp3 player and a ds if you wanted for only a little more then a psp.

...and the disk will not pop out unless you try to break the PSP...

wow, either your pretty blind, or thats some amazing psp. my friends disc was poping out in the middle of gameplay! it makes a weird grinding noise. ha, breaking the psp is exactly what you have to do to exchange the batterys! well..close to it.

Those problems are in the Japanese modells, on average.

Wow, that's the first time when DS tripled its sales against PSP (and PS2). Interesting, what the heck happened? I think that's all because "Nintendogs"... a dog breeding game... (very creative title, btw)

That's the first game what I seen so far with four maximum scores in Famitsu (a Japanese gamer magazine), that means it will be a great game... =)

[red.yoshi]

it looks pretty sweet. my sister said she might get it.

[bloodoftheyoshi]

This is more of a nintendo place... i knew this would turn out this way but anyway DS owns!!!

[Alpha]

Yay for DS. Even If I don't have one. I just like it because is a nintendo product and because of the yoshi games are in the nintendo legacy.
