Games which are the same on both (racing, snowboarding, so on.) will of course look better on the PSP and probably play better with the analoge stick so that's a reason to get that.Īlso the hardware is much better, the screen is brighter and it got a better viewing angle. Just a short while ago it looked like the DS would have better games, but I would like to get into adventure/RPGs and there seems to come a bunch of those to the PSP aswell. If you had asked me 3-4 months ago, the choice would have been MUCH easier. And while I have no doubt there will be good games for the PSP, I always know I can count on my Nintendo consoles for great (and interesting) games. I've played it more so far, found more games I like so far. The DS has more "GameBoy" games, while the PSP has more "Console" games. They are both good consoles, and I think they have such different market segments (at least for me) that it's not a problem. Since I can put the PSP on hold at any point, I don't have to worry about if I can pause/save when something is happeneing. I really LIKE this ability, and I can see myself playing the PSP more and more if they have games I like.
Even just sitting at home and watching TV while playing. But I love the ability to play between classes on campus, when I have nothing to do at work, etc. I just don't have that kind of time that I like to devote to it. While that at first made me less interested in the PSP, I've come to a realization. The kind of games seem to be quite different. While the DS has better pick up and play games and short games.
GTA: Liberty City Stories will sell a ton and might be great. SSX on Tour is looking very interesting to me. Lots of content, fun to play, looks FANTASTIC. While there have been some nice games (Hot Shots Golf used up a lot of my time), Burnout: Legends just came out. It is starting to get some games that are the kind I want (note: I own both). That said, at this point the PSP is starting to come into it's own. I can't wait so see what Nintendo has in store. It's more innovative and has some amazing titles.
