Sony PSP VS Nintendo DS

[Valero]

Wow, make fun of Mario and the Nintendo junkies just flock to the scene. As for why have a handheld ps2... Well, while we're at it, let's get rid of cell phones and cordless phones. I mean, things are so much cooler when they're tied down, right? And to say DS is cooler would mean one or more of three things: you're a nintendo junkie, you dissapprove of the PSP battery life (which, btw, is overexaggerated. they have more of 6 hours of gameplay, people, it was a rumor started by a nintendo junkie), or are just plain ignorant. Not only does psp haver more functions (say it doesn't and you really ARE ignorant), but it also has a higher potential for games. Nintendo is the kind of business that feels the need to become involved in almost every game put on their systems. Andif that happens, all of the games will feel the same. Platformers will make be just like they have been- Nintendo's second best skill. Sports will all feal as though they are just EA clones with Mario in place of athletes. RPGs will all be kiddy-themed or will be rare items like Skies of Arcadia and PSO I & II. That is what will happen to every game going to DS. Before, game makers didn't have a choice when it came to handhelds, cause that's all there was- a nintendo monoply of handhelds. But now that Sony, a company that hasn't tampered with enough games to even gain a 3rd digit on its number, has made a handheld the game makers now have a new obvious choice. In addition, game makers will have to program their games to suit the stylus, otherwise it defeats the true purpose of DS (watch a DS comercial and tell me I'm wrong).

Also, as if that wasn't enough to make sense to biast nintendo junkies, I think this next part will be enough to persuade you people, since this is a PSO site. Phantasy Star I & II has a good chance of going to PSP, and no chance of going to DS. How do I know this? I'm a gamer with nothing to do and broadband internet. Sonic Team decided Nintendo was full of retards after the President himself stated "I beleive the future of video gaming is not online." Sure he changed his mind, but I'm pretty sure Sonic Team doesn't give a flying rat's ass, seeing as how they are still developing PSU for ps2. If you're more of a PSO junkie than a nintendo junkie, I suggest not wasting money on DS and getting a PSP. If not, have fun with your plumbers. ^^
