Sony PSP VS Nintendo DS

[N1NJ4]

I'm only on the third page of this thread and i HAVE to reply now.

I will agree that Nintendo has very bad timing. They release a handheld without enough games to go with the launch. The games i got for DS have entertained me for a long time and still are. Mini games are fun and all and can entertain for hours (one thing i rent for parties is Wario Ware for when some people want to play video games). DS has a microphone but its not used yet to my knowldge. God imagine how cool that could be? Sure DS has a smaller screen... but its got TWO of them. Personally i think the aspect of two screens can make gameplay a bit more interesting. The Metroid Prime hunters thing... i learned the controls perfectly and can score an extremely high score in the demo. About battery life. Well 20 hours of good gameplay is alot better than 6 hours of okay to not so good gameplay on a PSP. I mean sports games dont belong on a handheld. Yes DS has some but thank god not many. I mean PSP and RPG's "omg you jsut got far in that hard to beat game! your only 12hp from beating the game! and BAM! POWER DRAIN NO MORE ENERGY!" see how that could be a problem? The online part of DS isnt taking it too far either. God knows Nintendo got on their feet and made some online gameplay. The DS (as i have noticed) has been marketed toward younger children (in the states atleast) and this is a good thing for nintendo. "Get 'em young." i believe is the quote. They get loyal players with an easy to play handheld and they are going stick with nintedo as they get older. PSP is gonna have some more difficult games on it and i think the PSP is for more hardcore gamers who are into more than playing a good game for a while of good entertainment. PSP's got a huge screen. O boy i love big screens. *sarcastic*means harder to fit into my pocket. O boy! Movies on a PSP... when im gonna watch a movie i think i'll turn on my TV or go to the theatre. You can argue a movie for traveling but hey, I'd rather play a game than watch a movie while traveling. More interactive ya know? Oh and dont forget that MP3 player. Seeing the price difference in PSP and DS you could go get a small Nomad MP3 player and still save money when you buy a DS over the PSP. As for Mixing it up? Go nintendo. Gives a bit of spice to the gameplay world rather than the dragged on normal gameplay of the world of video games. I think i'm done typing cause its 3 AM here. lol. i've got more probably so ill continue some other time.
