PSP vs DS vs DSi vs iPod Touch

[DSGamer64]

I can tell you right now that who ever picks DS is a filthy liar

. The only people who say DS are those who have the DS and cant afford DSi,think about it,DSi is the DS and more!

1)Camera
2)DSi Ware
3)Home Menu
4)Fun Camera tools,such as mirror mode and graffiti mode
5)Bigger Screen
6)Its next gen....

I prefer the DS lite, over that shitty DSi (shitty, imo)

Here's why.
1) I have an expensive 7 Megapixel digital cam, that also does video that I got as a gift a while back. Why would I want a crappy one on my DS?
2) Never cared for XBL stuff, or anything from the Wii store, so I wouldn't use the DSi one. Plus I'd have to use the console legit to do so, and nothing that appeals to me is out.
3) Who cares.
4) Webcams do it better.
5) They didn't design the 4,000+ ds titles to use that extra size, so no thanks.
6) The DSi is NOT next gen, no matter how many times you hear an idiot say so.
My special 7) No GBA slot. I still frequently use my Slot 2 expansion, so that's a major downer.

So, no, I'm not a liar, some people just don't need gimmicks on their gaming devices. I use my DS to play games, and sometimes play music; not take pics, surf the web, social networking, etc.

QFT...
I totally agree that the DSi is just another cashcow and the crappy resolution cameras (0.3MP -- WHAT A JOKE!), enlarged screen with same resolution aren't enough to force me to want a Slot 2-less, DSiWare capable device...

The exterior camera is 2.0 Megapixels idiot, the interior one is a 0.3 VGA camera. And no one cares about GBA anymore anyway, only the few people who still want the nostaliga actually still use it, not like most game sequels make use of the GBA slot for extra features and items anyway. Besides, I could just as well invest in the iPlayer to play GBA games on my DSi. Plus all upcoming firmware for flash cards and the cartridges themselves will be designed for the DSi.

PSP is my Favorite. I actually have owned all of those. I currently have a PSP, DSi, and Touch. I like the PSP the best out of all of them. Then Touch, then DSi.

Go make another topic about this and stop shitting up this guy's thread please.

the ipod touch is too simple as a gaming device

if youre really into realism and great graphics then go for the psp, otherwise the nds lite/i beats the psp in almost all other aspects.

This sounds like fanboy talk to me. How many shitty Imagine games are there for the PSP again? I have less PSP games than DS games, but the number of good PSP games I have far outnumber the good DS games.

1) Nobody uses the DSi for normal pics (only the odd few). It's used in DSi videogames....
2) Then again, there may be something you like on the DSiWare shop
3) The menu is nice and is a welcome addition
4) Are webcams portable?
5) The games don't look worse on the DSi as it is only a .25 difference
6)..........Don't think it's next gen either...but w/e
7) If you're going to keep you're DS Lite why not use the Slot 2 expansion in there....duh

Once again, if you have the opportunity to get a newer system why not get it. Unless you're purchasing it with your own money.

+1. Don't argue about this in my thread.

I'll most likely be purchasing a portable system with my own money, unless I can get it as a Christmas present...

How is something with no graphical improvements next gen? Stop being a retard and get the fuck outta here.

Then you obviously have a horrible taste in games, the PSP doesn't even come close to having the number of good games that the DS has. There are at least 40 good solid DS games that are worth playing, the PSP doesn't even have 25. Oh yeah, and if you want to go based off reviews, the numbers of a highly rated PSP game don't make up for the fact that the "good" games are extremely short (see God of War, Loco Roco, Exit and a bunch of other games). The few lengthy games are RPG's or adventure titles and they play just like console games. At least with the DS, the number of worthwhile games coming out every year that are games that everyone should play is high, the PSP gets at most 5 good games a year and they are still not that great.

You could buy one and ask for the other on Christmas, I guess.

I saw no love for the ipod touch in this thread. I was thinking of picking one up because I hear all these great things about the iphone and the great games coming to the app store, but I can't get an iphone right now because I'm in contract on tmobile/can't find a cheap one to hack. but now, maybe I'll save my money and just play with my psp.

 

[Lubbo]

The DSL has some pretty good games, but PSP seems to have better games, like they're more "fun" and action oriented as compared to DSL.

Nooo... The DS has much better games and more variety, i have both consoles and the PSP the only games i have thoroughly clocked and enjoyed is Crisis Core and God of War compared to DS where i have enjoyed a number of games my favourite probably being Chinatown Wars or Jump! Ultimate Stars. A lot of PSP games may 'seem' better because of the graphics but ive had much more fun with my DSL and M3 than my PSP.
In my opinion get a DSi with M30i and an iPlayer so your not missing out on GBA while using the full capabilities of the DSi otherwise i would recommend getting an iPhone they are constantly bring out more and more games for it and it has a lot of features.

The exterior camera is 2.0 Megapixels idiot, the interior one is a 0.3 VGA camera. And no one cares about GBA anymore anyway, only the few people who still want the nostaliga actually still use it, not like most game sequels make use of the GBA slot for extra features and items anyway.

Source for that? Because afaik both cameras' are 0.3 MP ones.

The DS has the best portable library in gaming history. Its missing a few games in certain key genres (it needs a good fighter), but its still has the best and most diverse portable gaming library ever. The system literally has 100s of good games.

You don't honestly believe this, do you? No system ever has had hundreds of good games, except for maybe the SNES.

 

[geokilla]

I don't play GBA games, thus I don't need to get an iPlayer.

If I get an iPhone, I'd be spending over $50 a month on the monthly plans alone, unless I spend like $600 to purchase a BNIB iPhone 3GS.

As for getting a DSi, I see no point in getting one as there are little to any DSi only games.

no wai

the imagine series are epic

but anyway no were no 100's of good games
if I had to put a # on it, I would place it around 70ish good games (and thats being a little generous)
