Post Re: New PSP info (Simple but good)

I haven't seen anything that is really innovative about the DS except for that pac man game, but with the other games so far it just seems like it's a conveinance, which is kinda of cool. Instead of taking away from the action by pausing the game to get/equip items or look at maps you can just look at one of the screens.

Or maybe u can have 2d item drop down from the top screen and come into full 3d in the bottom screen and crush enemies or something. I'm sure the devs will think of stuff but I'm happy Nintendo is trying something new that has potential.

I'm looking forward to a Mario Paint/Music suite emphasizing the stylus and microphone support. If you knew how to use it, Mario Paint was awesome on the SNES (aside from the shoddy mouse).

In fact, I want it on the record that I officially (this is serious folks) predict a Mario Paint type of game available at the launch of the DS.

If you can prove it It's been a long time since I've seen Apple copy anything in the design department.

heh... who cares who copied who... Apple doesn't have a PSP out, so copied headphone design is useless garbage to argue or debate about.

the PSP looks amazing, and I have to agree with the some odd people in this thread when I say, the DS' dual screen action will only come has a ASSIST in games, and can really serve no MAIN purpose....

Probably a waste of space IMO, because instead of dual screens you can have a bigger screen that can Split-Screen itself inside the game, so you can have one screen with that same capability.... LOL... i dunno what kinda idea that is... it's the same concept only a bigger screen instead of 2 smalls.... LOL
