Sony PSP VS Nintendo DS - Helios - 08-08-2005
I'm sure theres a way to do it. I'll get back to you on it. I have the a DS emulator on my computer and you use the mouse for the touch screen and the m or the mirco phone to run the micro pohone

Sorry to say Helios, but DS emulaters are no good on PSP. not only are both screens stretched beyond veiw, but there's nostylus. Part of the reason Nintendo put the stylus on the DS was so emulators would be harder to program, and so the DS emulators would be useless on anything but a PSP, unless of course PSP fanboys make an accesory for that. Probably will to, seeing as how some people really dont have lives.
It's for previous Nintedo games that the emulators on PSP shine. So any nintendo game (Including GAMECUBE EMULATORS) can be played on PSP, except DS.

I think this sums it up nicely.

Yoshi, those figures are for games sold. Pay attention to what you read. The reason DS has more games sold is because most of them are pixelated and don't involve either touch screen nor microphone. PSP games tend to be more involved, thus needing more programming time.
SR-Faulkie, you have no originality. If you were going to express your opinion through photoshop (or paint, as it looks like that is what you used), at least do it in an original way. Heck it doesn't even have to be original, just not the same thing as someone else in the immediate target audience did, only flip-flopped. I would apluad your originality, but your work is neither impressive or original. You should be ashamed
I don't really care anymore anyways. This whole thread has been nothing but people flaming back and forth their opinions. I have my opinions, you people have your own. I'm not even going to suggest you rethink it: not my time or money being wasted, it's your own. However, that doesn't mean I'm not going to throw my last little thing in here.
The PSP does play games like that of PS2, but its not the first time something like this has happened. GBA was not but a handheld SNES, wasn't it? It was, but pople still liked it, and it even had some indepth games like Kingdom Hearts :CoM (Say that's a kid's game a let a kid play it. He won't know an attack card from a summon), or my favorite GBA game, Golden Sun. The only difference here aside from the maker is the difference between releases. Yes, I think the PSP, as of this moment, has the same games as PS2. However, if it were to be released around 3-4 years later, no one would be whining, unless you're a nintendo fanboy. Why? PS2 games wouldn't be made anymore. Everything would be MMORPGs, online shooters, online sports, online fighting, online hack'n'slash, or the over-used plumber in various games, none of which platformers. Because of the lack of undoubtedly awesome PS2 games, people would buy PSP. However, releasing it now would be the same thing, since PS3 is coming out in America spring of next year. That means PS2 games will stop being made around a month or two before PS3's release. Where will they go? PSP. That means anyone who inparticularly likes PS2 games will need a PSP to continue playing PS2-esque games. Your logic of saying they are only handheld ps2's means you are ignorant of real logic. Isn't a handheld better than a console if it has the same games and power? Sure, battery life becomes an issue, but now you can play on the go as well in the living room. The only way PSP could have been better is if Sony converted all PS2 games to PSP format. That means PSU. But that's only a dream. Back to reality. If you really like PSO, get a PSP, if not before DS, then after, because Sonic Team is leaning more towards Sony nowadays, and its been confirmed already that the next title is NOT on either GC, GBA, or DS.
Since this is my last post, posting in response to this means absolutely nothing, as I am not checking this thread anymore. It'll be like insulting a brick.
Last thing before I leave:
PSO IS NOT GOING TO BE ON DS, GAMECUBE, GAMEBOY ADVANCED, OR REVOLUTION IN THE FUTURE. THE PHANTASY STAR SERIES HAS BEEN MOVED TO SONY CONSOLES AND PC. THEY ARE -NOT- GOING BACK. ANY PSO FANBOY SHOULD ABANDON NINTENDO NOW.

1) I think you missed the point. The point WAS that I copied you, giving my opinions. It was to prove that anyone can do that and make anything sound stupid. In actual fact, the PSP's narrative was based around everything you've said, so I think you should be 'ashamed'.
2) I'll never abandon Nintendo. I know that Sega are still making games for Nintendo, so why not PSO?
3) You are the biggest IDIOT I've ever met, real life or online. You condemn all 'kiddy' games of being bad, then defend Kingdom Hearts because it's kiddy, but complex etc. Hello?! That's what people have been trying to tell you about Pikmin and Zelda - Wind Waker all this time! Also, you have such a closed mind that you cannot accept the good points of the DS. I will admit that the PSP has batter graphics, bigger screen and looks sexy, but I don't even see you giving the DS a chance, except for being a 'collectors item'.
4) I don't care that you said you're not checking this any more. I know you're reading this, but you won't reply because you said you wouldn't. -_-;;

Well said Faulkie.

Why not PSO? because game cube is a horrible platform for it. half the playiers polled who play PSO on the game cube diddn't even know it could go online. Game cube has crappy online support anyways. All future Phantasy star games will never touch a nintendo system. Why do you support sub par technology? They spoon feed you games that you have played A GAZILLION TIMES but they just keep remaking them and giving them new names. Wow mario diddn't I play this same game 6 times before on 3 diffrent systems and nothing has changed? Yes nintendo was the greatist thing up until I was 12 but then I realised there are better things If you find games on nintendo challeging and cool then go ahaed say there in you infentail state because big boy games will jsut be too hard for you. Any game that goes to a nintendo systems become watered down and simple becasue it's made for young people. Look at final fantasy tactics on PS1 had the best damn story in any final fantasy game and was so rich and complex. Then it hits the GBA and all of a sudden they lose all the blood and there no more killing and the graphics are all bright and colorful instead of dark and scary. Plus the plot is now reduced to a 10 yr old boy who can dreate things with his mind. How is that not aimed at kids? Nintendo is stuck in the past and it is for kids. I have xbox and PS2 because thats all i will ever need what ever good game that comes out for game cube will come out for those 2.

I beg to differ on the watered down issue. There are a couple of games that look better on the Gamecube than the PS2. On the Gamecube versions of these games, the graphics are smoother , whereas on the Ps2 it looks jagged. I know that PS2 has better graphical quality than the Gamecube, but there are plenty of games on the cube that prove that it can be just as good, or even better on the cube.
In FFTA, characters can be killed in the Jagd areas, so killing does exist there. Trust me, Zelda won't be coming to the PS2 or XBOX,
Also, Metroid isn't exactly considered an "easy" game. Just because most Cube games are kid-oriented, doesn't mean they're all easy, so what you are saying is a misconception.Anyways, that's off-topic.
The argument between the PSP and DS is starting to get pretty pointless now. Everyone keeps restating the same details over and over again. There is no true winner in this debate, believe it or not. It is all in the eye of the beholder.
One more thing, the topic is PSP Vs DS, not Sony vs Nintendo. Your last post is completely off- topic because it mentions neither the PSP or DS.
Sony PSP VS Nintendo DS - Helios - 09-08-2005
I just can't see how is DS better then PSP? O wow 2 screens but they games that actualy use the second screen you need 3 hands the make the game go soomthly. FFTA yeah they died but they just disapeared in the PS1 version people where torn apart and thrown around it was graphic for a PS1 game. But nintendo is just rediculous it makes the same damn game over and over. Comparing the DS to a PSP is like saying I rather eat this dog poo instead of this candy. It dumb to compare them there is nothing about the ds that is better then PSP realy there isn't the fact is there PSP is better there is no way around it you can talk all you want it woln't be better.
