I can't afford a PSP, got a DS(tank

) for Christmas the first year it came out. If I could afford a PSP, I'd get it purely for console emulation purposes.

I own a DS Lite. I would want to get a PSP for its admirable graphic, but unfortunately I'm only one person and I'm quite limited money and time wise.

Games are more fun on DS. Graphics don't make the game.

Graphic is a kind of stimulator that increases ppl's interest in game. It has its important role in gaming.

A game with all graphic and no gameplay is worthless.

A game with all gameplay and no graphic is obsolete.

I have no desire to help Sony push their proprietary formats (memory stick/UMD), and i do not want to play ports of PS2 games, i have a PS2 for that

DS was the first handheld I ever wanted due to the touch feature. never had any other beside game gear in the 90s

I started with psp because of 1 reason, Initial D Street Stage. Then I researched about downgradability and got rid of my ta-082 and got another white non-ta082 that's now a 1.5. Then I got another black psp for the hell of it to use as a beater to go. Eventually (quickly), I got bored of the games on psp, just pretty to look at mostly. So then I tried hard to get a ds lite in Japan while I was there...and that was seriously impossible. This was when ds lites first were released in Japan right before Golden Week. Now I got 5 ds lites total and my psps collect dust. I just lost interest in psps after I defeated Bunta in Initial D.

Your first sentence is entirely your opinion and is fine. I don't see how the second one relates very well with this thread.

I have both. Each have their ups and downs but I don't regret either purchase. I also have friends who have PSPs who are interested in the DS (and a few vice-versa). After I've beaten FF3 to death (well some jobs aren't maxed yet) I've took a break from it and picked up some PSP games. Picked up and currently playing Mahjong Fight Club since its already in Konami's The Best budget line and I'm waiting for the Pokemon DS games and Phoenix Wright 2 (GS2).

That graphics argument thing... While I could play mahjong with Yakuman DS (and get my ass handed on wifi) I'd like a more mature and stylish feel while playing so I went with MFC on PSP instead. Of course both has the same gameplay (other than the AI which I don't care since I suck) As PineappleH said, games nowadays need both graphics and gameplay. (Oh and before some guy says MUDs, I think MUDs which are online can mostly depend on the community, I mean look at this forums... why the hell are we wasting time here lol.)

While only somewhat related to the topic: I think people in the closed mindset that one has to be better than the other should be a thing of the past. Jeez, sales charts or whatever shouldn't dictate what people enjoy. While stating your opinion is fine and all, please convey it in a proper manner that doesn't look like you're arguing with other kids in the cafeteria during your lunchtime.

While the PSP game is fun in my opinion (and a money saver lol) I've enjoyed the arcade version more. I've stopped playing though when I see kids putting boogers on the steering wheel. Great.

Just like i read on a certain nintendo forum... "the ds games are smaller and you can fit more in a memory stick, so they are superior to psp" .... rightttttttttt hahahahahaha... stoopid arguments from kids.

agreed, I love playing arcade stage 3 as well, but I don't exactly have time these days to go to an arcade. Just while I'm in planes or trains. Though if you want to talk about a real driving simulator, play Ferrari Challenge...most realistic driving sim I've ever played in the arcades and is loads of fun if you care about real driving.

Since I can't afford to get all systems, I have to make choices. I happened to choose the DS over the PSP because it is a lot less expensive, because it can play my GBA games, and because of Meteos. I'll be honest, I think that the DS is better than the PSP, but that doesn't make the PSP bad. If I could afford to get both, I would, but I can only do that if I decide not to get a Wii, which I'm not willing to do.

I currently only have the DS, but I would get a PSP if I had the money.
There isn't much that I want on the PSP, but everyone I know that has a PSP (which isn't many) is currently playing Lemmings which I would love to be ported to the DS but I can just as easily play it on my PC.

I have both. I own the DS and the DS lite, the DS I think is better built after having the lite for a while I've found I've got a lazy pixel. You can only see this on a black screen so its not too annoying. The PSP is great for a few games especially the driving games and they've also done a good job of lego star wars. Its just a shame the PSP has no originality games wise, the DS will beat the PSP on this everytime.
