3DS or NGP (PSP2)

NGP:Nintendo Got Pwned

If you insist.

NGP: Not Great Product, because when the 3DS trumps it, Sony will have been "3'D, Sucka" (DS, Wii, 3DS)

Hmm the PSP2 looks good especially if you don't currently own anything.

But I DO own a Nintendo DSi XL which means same screen size so why be out a lot of cash and no improvement there for me. No, resolution is not something I worship.

I have an Acekard 2i, explain to me how the PSP2 is going to improve on my already possessing thousands of games.

I like the sound of the game cart mentioned though and can just picture a lot of you lads going glazed over drooling thinking of scamming software.

Battery is not an issue to me. 4 hours is a long time believe it or not. But a non replaceable battery? At all? Ever? Sounds like a dead game device every 1-2 years considering how you kids play em. Danged well better not be 599

3DS 1 thing better games better online service than NGP 3DS FTW!!!!

Some people here sound ridiculous. I'm not going to cut myself off from an amazing console just because I'm too much of a fanboy to admit that the other guy has something worth looking at. I love my DS but the PSP kicks some serious ass. Right now I'm playing Metal Gear Peace Walker and Killzone and I'm loving the PSP. I don't love my DS any less. Both are great systems. The 3DS and PSP2 also look great. I can't wait to get my hands on the 3DS and I'll also be chomping at the bit to play the PSP2 when that comes out.

better online service

Because being bogged down by friend codes and not having the multiconsole support of the PSN sounds just awesome!

Oh, and no option for 3G either.

 

[Rock Raiyu]

I'll be getting both, but I'm more excited for the NGP because it has a lot more to offer than the 3DS.

 

[SubliminalSegue]

Neither. I'm not particularly happy with either one right now. The only game I want to play on 3DS right now is Layton/Wright but I can play that through other outlets. Other than that, I'd be wasting money on games I've already played, making new handhelds moot.

 

[Hells Malice]

3DS.
It'll likely get considerably more good games then the PSP2, like the DS before it.

I don't care that the 3DS is 3D either, that's just a boring gimmick, but the games it also has promised for it are going to be great.

I'm sure, like the PSP, the PSP2 will eventually be worth buying, but I wouldn't get it until a year after launch. Paying launch price for it and then waiting a year+ for a reasonable amount of great games to come out is pointless. Besides a second analog stick, finally, the NGP isn't all that impressive. It's just a more powerful PSP that can't play UMDs and has a retarded touch pad on its back. So neither NGP nor the 3DS really 'wow' me with their gimmicks. It's all about the games that get released on them that I care about.

Whichever gets a full speed N64 emulator first.

...There's no option for both here. This thread assumes that this entire site is made up fanboys from one camp or the other. I'm gettin both when my funds are up.

NGP:Nintendo Got Pwned

If you want to go there, how about Not Gonna Play?

 

[RNorthex]

imo it will be a good choice for those who want a gaming-hendheld+phone in one
i myself was looking for sth like that too, but i stay with the 3ds
i'm more of a gamer and it's already too good to be true

ngp is not going to be a threat
nor will the 3ds to the ngp that much

they are starting to take different routes

The NGP isn't a phone.

And since when will the NGP not having games for gamers?

 

[mightymuffy]

Eeee, talk about deja vu watching the NGP.... I remember thinking PSP would wipe the floor with the DS, and also WTF were Nintendo thinking anyway (rather like the Wii!) - however it's a case of once bitten twice shy this time round! My PSP, aside from being a decent emu console, has to be the worst games machine I've ever bought, and while I think the dual analogue/PS3 graphics/interesting back touch screen sounds good, I'll pass this time!

3DS all the way for me, and besides, if I want to play PS3 games, I'll, erm, play them on my PS3!!

 

[Maedhros]

Asking this question on a forum packed with Nintendo fanboys is kinda pointless, huh?

I'll buy both, eventually.

With a website named GBATemp, how can one not believe it to be more Nintendo-based? Besides, if such a topic were on a Sony fanboy forum, would you expect anything less than NGP favoritism?

That should be easy for both handhelds but I've pictured NGP emulating 3ds games which means nintendo got... -_-

Hope my nightmare doesn't come true and 3ds a little more powerful to shrug it off, otherwise...imagine the Sony fangirls =p

what a question,

3DS, graphics may not be as great (still look fantastic anyway), and theres no 3G as well as other features, but that 3D effect without glasses really is a selling point for me. While a back touch screen does little to nothing for me (seriously, I mean we talk about gimmicks for video games, and a back touch screen just takes the cake, I can see it coming in handy only for a few games, and I bet in a years time, games will stop utilizing almost entirely).

Umm, no. The 3DS does have 3G. It was confirmed a while back.
