    Re: Nintendo DS or SONY PSP

    I prefer the DS for only one thing. Nintendo first party games, their franchise games usually feel fresh enough that you feel your playing a different game. While the PSP has started getting some nice games i've always viewed them as PS2 ports rather than a hadheld game.

    That's where I think Nintendo still has it over the PSP. I'll take the New Super Mario Bros or Mario Kart any day over any PSP first party title.

      that's how i see things...I mean the PSP is flat out amazing in quality, but it didn't have me wanting to play it when i was home, since i could just play similar console versions...

      The DS has unique games that i'll play just to play, not having to travel.

Syphon Filter didn't do much for me until I got used to the controls, because the game is very well made after you get passed that hump. Metal Gear Acid...same story. I'm guessing people buy it, play the games for 30 minutes and call it a day. Sony franchises that have gone down the tube like Wipeout, Ridge Racer and the mentioned Syphon Filter have been brought back nicely. People seem to like Daxter, I don't have that game yet. And the 2-D lineup is nearly as prolific as the DS's. Right now it's just lemmings and mega man's, but there is a lot more coming later in the year.

        The sports lineup, starting with MLB, should be getting much better down the line.

        I'm waiting on my DS lite, and it looks like a novel idea with all the innovations. However, I'm not buying the thing to play Trauma Center and Oendan, the tried and true nintendo/gba franchises is still the main draw.
        Erv I agree with you.

        Both systems have something unique to offer. I think that the PSP finally has brought some decent games to the table.

        I can't wait for the DS Lite to release next month, I just put my $25 down today at Gamestop. I don't care too much for the stylus or touch screen at the moment as I want to just play favorites like Mario, Zelda, some GBA games I missed out on, + my wife wants to also play Nintendogs, AC, and etc. I figure that the touch screen may grow on me over time.

        Today, a guy I work with is selling his PSP for $125, so I might take the plunge one more time since titles like Field Commander, Pursuit Force, UBP, & BAM have released + there are a few titles coming this summer/fall.

              Let anyone say whatever floats their boat. Any videogame console I have ever sold in the past, I haven't lost money and have even made extra money in the end.

              I can sit back and laugh in the end since we do tease each other. LOL

                        You have to give it to FF though, he gives the best reasons why he is buying and selling a system and why he wants to get it a second or third time. FF, is still a cool guy though in the end.

                        I've only had 2 PSP's, this would be my 3rd if I buy it. I can say one thing that when I got rid of my PSP the two times it was due to no games being out that even warranted the systems worth.

                        PS2 is due to me selling my fatty PS2 to buy a Slim when MLB06 came out since I had a problem last year so technically it's only 2 PS2's.

                        Only reason why I had 2 Xbox's is since I sold the original XBOX that I had since launch to place the $$$ towards the 360 and then a few months regretted it since no titles were coming out.

                        I'm still behind FF in the #'s plus the reasoning why.

                            I just bought a GBA micro a few weeks ago. I've had so much fun with it (and so has my wife, which is part of the problem) that I'm gonna go ahead buy a DS Lite. New Super Mario Brothers, Mario Kart, Metroid Prime Hunters, and Brain age all look great. Plus the new Zelda game soon.

                            I guess I just have no desire the PSP.....the multimedia capabilities are cool, but not worth the system for me. DS blows the PSP away in terms of games, too.

                              One thing is that the PSP looks so nice at the store, but when you bring it home it's another story.

                              Do yourself a favor and get the DS Lite.
