[FIGHT] PSP vs DS - Page 2

Infernus, GameCube isn't bad. At all. ;[ Sure a lot of their games are shitty, but some of them are the most kickass games ever. Wind Waker, SSBM (...I thought that was fun), and some other well known ones...

Anyway, I guess the PSP will own more. I mean, I haven't went through any research but I'm pretty sure the DS is just a GBA (not SP) with an extra screen. And we all know Nintendo is money hungry, I bet it'll be like 120$. But, PSP won't have any good games, I bet. I bet it'll be all bad platform games and sports games. I doubt they'll be any FPS's. If there are...damn, you can take a FPS anywhere.

Gamecube is coming out with better games than the PS2 is.

Resident Evil 4
Zelda in full graphics
Metroid 2
Starfox

Thats a list you can't compete with.

PSP is amazing for a handheld

PSP is a very large thing, but I normally carry these things in backpacks and suitcases anyway.

It has a big screen, but it's still not that big.

It's certainly no laptop, and I respect the fact that its size is attributable to the screen, but it remains a large device when placed alongside the GBA sp or even NeoGeo Pocket. Its a design risk they are willing to take, apparently--personally I wasn't a big fan of the half-assed attempts by companies to make pdas and game systems pocket sized. Those things never feel good in your pocket, you wind up carrying them in your bag, and the screen and controls are still tiny. I like the angle that sony is taking--people take these things on trips and immersion requries a larger screen.

The graphics on the DS and PSP are very similar but the talk is that the DS stole the PSP's thunder cause of the DS's unique features: Touch screen gaming on lower screen, GBA backwards compatible, Two wireless protocols one a propretery nintendo one that allows up to 16 person multiplayer games at with a range of 100 feet. The second is Wi-Fi 802.11 allowing multiplayer gaming over the internet! how the latter is going to be executed is still under wraps though.

All in All nintendo stole the show.

Metroid prime DS:

pictochat(tech demo):

Warioware DS:

Mario 64x4:

there were more impressive things like animalcrossing DS but I couldn't find any good screenshots

PSP > DC.

While they both have their pros and cons, Im really MUCH more impressed with the PSP. Being able to watch videos, and listen to music on my PSP is a huge selling point for me.

Nintendo needs to die.

Onizuka-GTO · 2004-05-12, 08:08 PM

Hamma the Admin is in favour of single dominating company with no competition to fend off a monpolised market that allows innovation to stagnate and prices to rise unopposed?

mmmm...For some reason PSU's future, doesn't look too cheerful...

*nervously noticing the megalomania gleam in Hamma eyes for world domination*

P.S: Go Nintendo!! Uberdog's for teh win!

Indecisive · 2004-05-12, 08:28 PM

Feh, I agree Nintendo needs to step up for multifunctunality. I want a damn mp3/vid player dammit.

While Im not one for megacorporations, Sony makes some good shit. They didnt become the #1 player in every conceivable electronics market cause of lame, uninnovative technology.

It's because they have good competition that drives sony to make some good products.

Competition is healthy, i dread to think if Nintendo dies....like Sega (Dreamcast is dead. LONG LIVE SEGA!)
