[JD/]

PSP hombrew is much better than DS homebrew and you know it and dont generalize me as a "sony fanboy" because i love nintendo PSP is the only sony console i have i got it for the homebrew

[Video_freak]

i too have to say the psp is much better for homebrew

[chemical]

1. You can play the most amount of homebrew software on a PSP
Ok, yes homebrew for PSP is better, but I think DS makes up for it by actually having fun games to buy, unlike PSP.
2. You can update the system software when the software goes out of date
So can you on DS, for the price of PSP you can get a DS Lite and M3 or other device, where you can completely decide what versions and what software you want
3. You can connect the PSP to the computer
You can do this with your M3's SD Card
4. you can adjust the PSPs system settings withoout having to restart your system after resetting them
Erm, yay?
5. you can have a nickname on your PSP
Who cares?
6. You can use a wallpape on your home screen
Can do this with software for your DS device
7. ou can use RSS channels on your psp
Ok
8. you can set up your netwrok settings properly
... Yes so can DS
9. you can view photos on your psp
So can DS (like with the device as mentioned earlier)

14. You can watch UMD videos
Why would you pay money for a dieing movie format
15. You can veiw video off the mem stick
So can DS
16. You can make more than one save on each game instead of one
No one needs to do this, but if you really want to you can run roms on your M3 and save on different SD cards.
17. play downloadable demos
On DS you can play the full game.
18. You have an internet browser
So can DS, with a proper typing system
19. You can view RSS channels
Hmm this sounds familier, look at point 7
20. Yo can play flash games
Ok, thats cool
21. you can watch flash videos
Yes, i know, flash
22. you can view flash enabled websites
Ok I get it, flash, thats 1 reason, not 3
23. You can watch TV through your psp
So can DS, hell so can GBA
24. youv can use location free player
Awesome, like 3% use that stuff
25. you can havec different folders to store your music in
Yes, you mentioned this already, pretty amazing, but so can DS
26. youb can group your music
Really?!, I didnt think having different folders solved that..
27. you have easyier controls
Says who?, DS clearly has just as good controls and a funner control, touch screen > analog
28. you have an infared port
Not needed, DS can do everything needed without that.
29. will soon have a psone emulator
I'd rather play nintendos official updated N64 ports then psone
30. PS3 connectivity
Wii Connectivity
31. Will have a psp camera
Ok, thats cool, but im sure DS may do this, seeing as they did with GB
32. A GPS system
Not sure what this is so I cant comment.
33. A great selection of games
lol, says who?
34. The DS has a selection of childish selection of games like mario
No, it has great nintendo classics, but it also has a large selection of games that you wouldnt buy for a young child.
35. you can lock your psp so any of the buttons dont get pressed acidentally
DS doesnt take 4 hours to load so you can just turn it off
36. you have four levals of screen brightness
DS's battery last forever so you dont have to resort to turning the brigthness down.
37. whenb you want to quit a game on the DS you have to turn the sytem off but on the PSP you jsut have to press the homne button
Yes, but the games suck anyway.
38. You can adjust the Tone of music
Are these really valid points, or are you just rambling?, who cares?
39. bigger memory avalible for the for the psp
No, not true.
40. Much lighter and has a better more sleak design
DS Lite looks a ton better than PSP and is lighter



Ok, so there we go, just to make it clear, I'm not a DS fanboy, I was considering a PSP and down the line may still get one, but I just wanted to make a clear argument against this guys biased and often pointless "reasons".

[Video_freak]

The DS is good, but for all the multimedia stuff you talked about on the DS, it looks like crap. Viewing pictures/ movies on a DS screen is horrible

[chemical]

I've seen video on it and it looks pretty good, playing videos on PSP totally sucks all life out of the battery.

[Rocksil]

im sure in time you will soon play nds games on the psp

[chemical]

Without a touch screen that would be awful on alot of games, and i dont know how it would fit right, but if the PSP plays NDS games, brings out a touch screen for not too much, and extends its battery life by like 400%, then i would prefer it to NDS, but until then..

[Rocksil]

well .............. it just a thought

Well, both DS and PSP have very good features.

I have been a PSP user for some time and my cute sister has a NDS.

First thing i like about my PSP is about it's looks, when mi sister is playing with her NDS in a place with lots of people they just give a glimpse to the thing and then look away and keep walking.

But... when i'm playing with my black shinning PSP for some reason people gets curious and keep staring at it as if it where some strange animal (well, it may be that i'm the one that looks like some strange animal with long hair and shaggy beard, but who cares...)

Another thing I love about the PSP is the big screen, well, i have been messing with my sister's DS (did i say she was cute??) and have been able to play some videos, the bad thing is that after years of being in front of the TV and PC playing games my sight has been somewhat affected so it gets very hard to read the subtitles in the DS's screen

I won't thalk about homebrew, i think thats very clear right now...

About the games... it may be a little subjetive too, i know a lot of people who hates NDS games, (me, for example) i'd rather play Burnout Legends and destroy some things than keep guiding a mini Link around a always-look-the-same castle or playing Mario with steroids (well, the last one may be fun, at least you can kill some turtles and other dumb-looking creatures...)

But well, not all about the NDS is bad, after all 'touching is good' (but you must be careful of what r u gonna touch...) and it seems my sister enjoys touching things so i think that with time some interesting game (about the touching stuff) may come out...
