I freaking hate the holy war between Nintendophiles and Sonyphytes over DS versus PSP. It’s annoying to see people have flame wars over this sort of thing.
On one hand, we have the Nintendophiles, who complain about how the PSP has only 2 hours battery life, costs a lot, and loads forever.
Yet on the other hand, we have the Sonyphytes, who argue that the DS has a tiny amount of games, is too heavy, and has no good control mechanisms.
Well, you wanna know what I chose?
I didnt. Instead, I went with my reliable GBA SP, which looks better, plays better, has full backwards-compatibility (you try shoving Tetris into a DS, my friend said you have to hold it into the thing all the time), has better battery life, and a larger software library than all of them.
And it’s more compact.
So, next time, before starting a holywar, consider systems that are still supported by the manufacturer and still have games coming out for them.
/me looks around
/me notices everyone’s asleep
Well, at least it’s lucid sleep and not regular sleep.
i totally agree with you the ds doesnt have very good controls. the psp took forever to get together with to many problems,too many promises… like advent children >.< mjefhrbjfdgjntrbuotrw bv.cant even make words>.< but the sp is ewl i dont have one though lol soo i stick with my ps2,yippeee
I lost interest in the industry when Sony and Microsoft moved in and crushed Sega and Nintendo, the Dreamcast being my last console. Nintendo’s next console (the interestingly-named ‘Revolution’) could really be something though.
Nintendo > Sega >>> Sony > Microsoft
In the right (and usually Japanese) hands they can be a truly artful medium. In the wrong hands they are a cheap cash-in.
Especially Nintendo > M$ (I freaking hate M$, I dont use Windows, I use Linux), except when I’m playing Halo (2). Other than that they can go **** themselves.
Nintendo’s still running, and the `cube is an awesome system. I want one. When I first played SSBM, I was… amazed. It was extremly fun.
PS - Anyone notice that DS = Dream Sign and SP = Sleep Paralysys according to this MB? I guess if I ever get a DS I’m dreaming DS Induced Lucid Dreams here I come!
Me? i’m going to wait with the Nintendo DS and PSP, and just wait to see which most people feel is better. Also, I don’t wanna go out and buy the PSP right away. I’d like to make sure the bugs in it are fixed first…
