Be nice if they could actually get things right this time round.

PSP will be the first handheld I buy since Game Gear.
DS? Give me a break. That "Dual Screen" nonsense isn't an innovation, it's a novelty. |

The fact you actually bought a Game Gear dilutes your views a little...

DS seems pretty cool. Might get one when pokemon comes out. The other reason to get a DS is because it provides something I can't get to anywhere else (touch-screen games).
People will buy the PSP because its Sony, but I see no point in it. I have a PS2 which apparently displays better graphics anyway. I have a minidisk player that actually fits in my jean pocket without creating a huge buldge so thats that aspect covered and the battery lasts for more than a few hours. And as fun as portable films are, who doesnt own a TV in their room or have a PC with a dvd-rom to watch films on if they can't use the main TV to watch a film. The only time this might be useful is on a train or a bus. But you only get one viewing out of it before you're looking for a power outlet to charge your system. PSP needs an awesome game for it that I cant get anywhere else for me to get one. |

However, it's bigger than the latest attempt at the "we've got better graphics and 12 minutes of gameplay!" by another corporation. It's bigger than adding bells and whistles they don't need (Playing DVDs you have to buy specially for the PSP, MP3 capacity), especially since I have no desire for a portable DVD player and have no need for a MP3 player (I have one that stores 40 GB. Why would I want a crpapy memory stick one?). The PSP and the DS both have a serious lack of games that make me declare a winner, but I've still seen enough on the DS to want it more. If there's a price break/better battery at a decent price, I might break out cash for the PSP, but I don't need the extras, the hassles of 9 batteries to keep up with the DS, or the flaws of the PSP bad enough to bother with this shit. |

Really, Game Boy's colors were revolting. Not to mention I was not a fan of their games. I owned them both, but played game gear more, and then just stopped playing them alltogether. I had no real reason for a portable (though I do now). There were simply better games on consoles, but the PSP looks to rectify that. Game Gear had a short battery life, but I usually had it plugged into the wall, and when I didn't, I had extra batteries. Anyway, I don't want PSP because it's a handheld, it's because it's going to have Twisted Metal Head On on it primarily. Not to mention GTA is coming out on it, as well as many other awesome games. And it's ONLINE. Also, since I don't have a mobile DVD player or iPod or anything, this will be nice. Just because it does other things besides gaming isn't a reason to attack it. It's just extra benefits, it's not like it can't play games, I think that from the info so far, that is pretty obvious. To be fair, Metroid is coming out on DS, and I would imagine that'll be good, but I just don't see much in DS's future. I mean really, does you honestly think that the dual screen will innovate the industry? do you think that the next wave of handhelds will all have dual screens? It's a gimmick. It may be nice for a game or two, but it's a gimmick nonetheless. It's like the Eyetoy. PSP has so much more potential IMO. Either way, Nintendo fans better hope that PSP crashes and burns, because if it massacres the game boy, Nintendo is in bad shape. Anyway, to each his own. |

That aside, am I the only one that thought that the color of the screen of the original Game Boy looked like vomit? |

If you vomit is that shade of green, you might have a problem.

I only have one worry about the DS right now. Hopefully it will have more good 3rd party games. The only great GBA games have been from Nintendo, and most of them were ports...

time will tell, but I bet the combination of the secrecy (Which apparently, some people think is a good thing), plus Sony getting a bunch of third parties signed on, Nintendo may be a bit dicked there. Of course, Sony's really not looking that hot right now either. |

I heard another handheld system called Zodiac coming out.
Whatever happen to that handheld system that came out 1-2 years ago with a phone and online play? I think DS and Nintendo will dominate the handheld market because of the first party games. No one wants to play Playstation games on a handheld screen.Nintendo games however like Mario is better on handheld. The kids(parents money) is the majority of the handheld business and we all know Nintendo owns the kids because of Pokemon,Mario,etc. PSP will probably be a better system but Nintendo will most likely win the war. |
