    Which is better, PsP or Nintendo DS.

    In terms of "bang for your buck" cuz I know the PsP costs a lot more and can watch movies and listen to music but I hear there's tons of good games for the DS. . .I dont know which to buy. . .

    PSP, better graphics (obv.), more games, better games (i.m.o), more variety, play movies, music, online.

    I have both, and I've had my DS since December and my PSP since July and I've already got more time into my PSP...

    There aren't many games out for the DS that I'm interested in at the moment, but there are a number of upcoming releases that I want... As you said, the PSP has good media capabilities, and it's current and future game releases are good.
    If I were to choose one it would be the DS just because I want to play GBA games on it. :P

    I am sick of people saying that. Just because it lacks the media capabilities and lower graphical power, it does no mean it not only aimed for children.

    It still has games that would be enjoyable for adults such as Advance Wars DS, Golden Eye : Rouge Agent and the upcoming Metroid Prime Hunters.

    IMO the PSP does not suite me. I have no need for another MP3 player or a portable movie player.

    One quick question. Why pay the same price for movie (UMD) when you get lower quality and a tiny screen to watch on, compared to a tv?

    Hate to start an argument but im just defending the little guy.

    <_< All of the Nintendo consoles have been aimed towards younger children, there is no exception.


    Why would you pay the same amount? Never heard of traveling? <_< You can't very well hook up a TV and DVD player in your car, a truck or van, yes, but not a car usually ^_^
