NDS and PSP games

[Jonbo298]

I soooo care about sports games *humps EA* (kidding with a mixture of sarcasm )

Both handhelds have been doing tougher overall. More people are modding PSP because its easier, more 3rd party accessories obviously because PSP is video also, etc... I think what will happen is Sony will cut a decent chunk of the handheld market because well, this time its a company that has more then games to fallback on if for some 'screw'all reason they fail the handheld market unlike Sega and others who just have little funds to fallback on if it fails.

DS will have the quirky games everyone says is the biggest piles of crap but others will proclaim as awesome (Nintendogs comes to mind). PSP will have all the PS2 ports and eventually people are gonna complain more and more about less original PSP games. But DS has that syndrome also. Nintendo needs to get fresh games, not rehash. Mario 64DS was great and all but come on Nintendo, your better then that. The new Mario game is shaping to be awesome but I'm starting to get slowly sick of all the rehashes for overpriced fees *cough GBA Classics series* for 5-20 year old games.

Both in the end will win. PSP will be successful because of its video capability whereas Nintendo will be successful because of the way you can play games in a new way. Granted, touch screen has been around for quite awhile but not implemented heavily into games.

Once Nintendo starts dropping the franchise titles, I think you'll see an increase in popularity for the DS.

GTA on the PSP would be cool, but after playing San Andreas.....

Let's just say, Zelda will probably hit home for more handheld users then say, sports titles, or even GTA.

I'm not saying that the PSP is doomed or going anywhere, but in the long run, I think the DS is going to be in the limelight the most.

But, who the hell cares? You can emulate games on the PSP. No one is going to mention that in official sales comparisons, but if I had to base my purchase on that fact alone, I'd get the PSP hands down.

Reading about emulation on PSP, I was about to go out the door and buy one but I had to resist..have to save money for now. But damnit, I will have one eventually

When it's all said and done, it's all about the fans. Individually, some of you guys may not like how PSP is just getting PS2 ports.... but the main difference is that it's handheld. Ever want to jack a car or beat some whores up in GTA? Well now you can do it anywhere... with no wires. Thats the incentive... not that it's just a port, but it's now portable.

Every system will have their ports and rehashes, and every person has their own tastes. Posting the games for each individual handheld is getting old.

Reasons for buying the PSP:
1. Emulation
2. Playing fave PS2 titles portably
3. MP3's and Movies

Reaons for buying the DS:
1. Original and interesting line up
2. Innovative gameplay w/ touchscreen
3. Nintendo classics and favorites played portably.

Some of you may want new games for the handheld, but others appreciate the rehashes and the ports you see on the handhelds, simply because it's PORTABLE.

Only the PSP isn't really that portable because of the bad battery life. That's the only thing about it that I don't really like.

Do they, or are they planning on, making an accessory that lets you hook the PSP into a cigarette lighter in your car? That would be awesome.

The travel charger has been out since 10 days before the PSP came out in the U.S.

And theres a Pelican Extend Battery that doubles the life of PSP's. I have it now, and I play it forever without charging. Especi' with the emu's.

No wires? GTAPSP is GTA3 with a few touch ups. There are plenty of wires, especially after playing the two games that progressed the series considerably. I don't care if it's portable or not, if I want to indulge that much time into the game, I'm going to go home and do it in the much refined San Andreas.
