PsP or NintendoDS??
Moving to 'Other Games'.My Say: I see this pretty much as a draw. Pure Playstation fans (mostly the "trendy" gamers) will go for the PSP, not knowing of Nintendos rule in the handheld market (no matter how much the Gamegear owned). This is a large amount of buyers for the PSP. Nintendo fan boys, handheld fanboys and the more knowledgable gamers will go for the DS, knowing Nintendo to have the greatest experience in creating successful handheld material.One let down for the PSP, is the fact that for all the features to run, you will not get a decent running time out of its powersupply. Meaning for a handheld, it will need recharging at least one or two days at a time, if used regularly. The DS has less besides gaming features, and will not eat up so much power.Sony owns the licences to many games now, and will beable to have a wide variety of games for this new system. Which is a plus. But Nintendo, having the means to create its own games and having stakes in other licences too will end up with a good amount of gaming material.The PSP is nothing special besides the many features it boasts, but these things are already widely used and may become boring (playing music, watching video, etc). It really needs to hold up its end of the bargain and become strong in the important part of the handheld market, the games. While the DS really focuses on gaming very strongly, and it being quite innovative gives it even more strength in reaching its goal in becoming a successful product.But only time will tell really.

You guys DO realize, that GCN has more games than PS2? There are shitloads of kickass games over here (Japan) that i've never heard of in the states. Over here, if you have a PS2, it's just for DDR. Honestly, I can see no other reason to own a PS2.... Hell, the next DDR should come out on GCN, then everyone could sell their PS2's.

England, Finland, Holland, America, and Canada. Wow...what a diverse group...but I digress.I don't know exactly the magnitude, but I have heard the same, that GCN games are abundant over there, and that they are good. Wish we could at least hear about them. I guess they just think they won't sell very state side.Musashi makes a lot of valid points, for both sides. It will probably come down to who wants what. I may stick with PSP, cos I commited to that a long time ago, lol.If they both bomb, we've always got the Nokai N-Gage.
And then Akon was like, Wooohooo! YEEHOOO!
i dont know about you guys, but the release game for the psp, death jr, looks like a playstation version of mario.and kinda fun. playstation has needed some sort of "mascot" for a while, and this may finally be it. and as for my vote, nintendo ds sounds cooler with all of its innovative things, but psp looks sexed up. i mean, i wouldnt mind being caught playing one of those babies in front of the ladies.
