    I disagree with those who say the DS has better games. Its really a matter of opinion. Personally I dont enjoy such games as Mario which I can easily play on my gameboy anyday. Something you get on the PSP is extradionary graphics combined with some great games.

    Syphon Filter
    Madden
    Tony Hawk

    My Sony Ericsson K700i plays a fully featured version of Worms 2.

    It is therefore the best gaming device in the universe, and also acts as a phone.

    It really isn't. You are wrong.

    At any rate, the Attach rate for DS games are much higher worldwide than PSP games.

    Speaking of which, New Super Mario Bros launched last week in Japan, and it sold every copy available, IE, it sold 900k units its opening week.

    Doc I reccomend going to your local store and trying out both. Most have sample PSPs and DSs to try out.

    To Ab:
    It is a matter of opinion. Like between the PS2 and Gamecube, I felt that I wouldnt enjoy Gamecube due to its oldschoolish games. For me, the PSP provides a better lineup with some great graphics.

    That still doesn't change the fact that you're wrong.

    I think Hiji suffers from a nasty condition called personal prefference, which is very hard to cure. But he should still be able to live a meaninfull life. DS and PSP are entirily different systems so it's no surprise the PSP gets different games. You won't find a game like SOCOM or Metal gear acid on the DS.

    The GameCube has games ??

    In all seriousness though, it has RE4 (an exclusive originally), Eternal Darkness and the Metroid Prime games. Hardly oldschoolish.

    Surprisingly, the GBA is still the best selling handheld (at least in the States), it beats both the DS and the PSP hands down.

    Half the reason I want a DS and not a PSP is backwards compatability with the GBA.

    But I do wish the DS was backwards all the way to the GBC and GB Brick. I still want to play Link's Awakening on the road!

    I am surprised at how much the DS has taken the lead now in votes, 17-10. Yeah Nintendo!

    It's almost impossible to buy Nintendo DS in Serbia. Sony was always popular here (PS and PS2), so, PSP is possible to buy in every larger city as there is Sony officially in Serbia, but not in my.
