Nothing New....
BUT MAN!!!!
DS LITE ROCKS!!!
Gonna get one....soon...hopefully...so i can get FINAL FANTASY III!!!
How come I can t understand that
what is it that DS has and PSP doesnt
I think that PSP is great
I ve never played with a DS
and I don t know sht about it
please tell me maybe I ll buy 1
It is pretty much the DS's games... Without the great games on the DS, then the DS wouldn't be so far ahead. Most of the PSP's games are American made (which Japanese don't like) or are remakes of PS2 games, or have low ratings. The DS has much fewer games, but the games on it are unique and fun and original. Not that the PSP's games aren't fun though... It is also the price. $250 for a PSP or $150 for a DS, at release. Now it is $200 for a PSP, or $130 for a DS. (Prices USD)Quote:

..and since I am a Nintendo fan, I'm not mad ;)
EDIT: I think it is funny how both Game Boy's sell more than the Xbox 360 in Japan...
:eek: HOLY SH*T!! ds BLOWS psp outta the water.. the ratio is about 5/1.... now if i do the math (ds being sold at $150 adn psp at $250) the ds console makes $750 while the psp makes $250 for every 6 ppl its sold to.WOW $500 DIFFERENCE!!:eek: ;) ... nintendo is killin it:p
oh man xbox is only 2 behind gba! yeah xbox!
Hrmm... interesting how the combined sells of EVERYTHING else are still less than half the volume of the DS lite.
Yes the DS Lite is kicking A$$ and even I, a hardcore PSP user plan on purchasing one soon.
However, with the recent brilliant work of Exophase and his stated continuation in developing gpSP, GBA can now be played on the PSP which now makes it far better than the Nintendo DS.
In terms of commercial game quality, its going to be a no-holds-barred shootout for the next 3 months with TONS of great games coming out for both the PSP & Nintendo DS. Even the GBA will see Final Fantasy V & VI released soon. And if they are playable on the PSP, I'd rather play them on the PSP hardware rather than the DS or GBA hardware.
Wow, I'm still suprise at how much the DS Lite is selling...
its probably because all of the new special edition ds lites that are coming out. they all look nice :DQuote:

so would i!!!:D
Does anyone know if the newest DS Lites and/ or special editions are compatible with the SuperCard, Passkey, etc to run homebrew?Quote:

Ones again crushed the PSP. I wonder when sony is going to get the hint.
lol:DQuote:
