What would you rather have?

A portable PS2 with rubbish battery life and pointless expensive features and PS2 ports.

Or an affordable portable N64 with two screens, touch screen and mic, and original games on it, and a battery life of 6-10 hours

Nuff said

Cheaper AND made by Sony!? What a recommendation! :D

So because it's cheaper it's probably more likely to breakdown than Sony's overpriced products which, coincid-ahahaha-entally breakdown?

Sounds like a winner to me.

Thanks Icarus, my day has been enlightened!

In the nintendo forums, a DS and PSP thread and this seems to have wriggled it's way in!

I'm going to bring this argument kind of in the playstation thread for fun.

And the reason I will get a DS is Metroid Prime Hunters, Wario Ware Touched, The Urbz: Sims in the City, Mr Driller, etc.

I do believe he meant to say:
"In my opinion the PSP is better so please don't listen to this guy. He is right in aspect that the DS is cheaper but since it is made by Sony, I am an idiot drone like person who'll buy anything I believe to be cool." :D

That's a terrible reason. Because it'll be terrible.

You can't really say that... seeing as none of us have played it.
Also, the devellopers (DMA) are professionals, who have been making clever original classics since the days of Lemmings, so IF they are the ones develloping it and Rockstar haven't gone and given the liciense to some novice wannabe house, then it could be the perfect PSP handheld game.

Just like Konami are changing MGS to suit handheld gaming.


However, I think that the DS is going to win out in the long run.
Yeah I'm biased, but I'm sure that the DS is going to take the pole position in the handheld market, and all the publishers are going to go where the money is.


For the same reason that the PS2 has the widest selection of third party titles today, the DS is going to be the handheld of choice in the future.



But Sony'll be back.
With bigger batteries than ever...

Rockstar'll give it to their handheld development team. Which are terrible.

And MGS Acid is also terrible.
