Anyone have it? From what I've seen, its a little big, but the everything else is awesome. Someone told me it has better graphics than Nintendo 64. Just want to hear other peoples views on it. I'm thinking about getting one.

psp is better. look at ridge racer ds, then look at ridge racer psp. psp has mp3 and movie capabilities. memory sticks, etc. much bigger and higher res screen. $180 price tag. battery life is 4-6 hrs, but spares only cost $45, so not that bad. the ds carts hold 1/14 of psp's umd. go get the psp. my friend has ds, not too much to be excited about.

I'm looking forward to the PSP. It has almost equal graphics to that of the ps2! (I think). Are the batteries rechargable?

I would like a PSP, did you guys see NFS:U1 playing on it? It was amazing.

EDIT: Also, I would like a PSP because it has a GPS add-on.
I don't check this forum anymore.

I am not in favor of both of them, due to the very hefty price tags. The PSP in my opinion does look promising, I have been a nintendo fan since I was 4 or 5, when I first played Super mario bros. 3. The Nintendo DS in my opinion is a marvel of technology, but I do not need the ooh! touchscreen to have a good time gaming. Not to mention its around 150 dollars, I really am not that liable to buy something that expensive that has such little taste to me. I stick with my good, old trusty SP.

The first Game Boy Advance was around 150 bucks when it first came out wasn't it? Or am I talking alien?

Well I guess I'm a sucker because that's what I bought it for. The DS is pretty cool when you sit and think about it, but they have freaky advertising campaigns on TV.

I don't think Target should have it so you can play DS, because the screens all scratched up. so now I don't know what its like. :angry:
Soak, or be soaked that is the question!

I would definitely get the Nintendo DS instead of the PSP. Think about this: the PSP uses disks - what happens if you move when you're holding it? It could skip, which would ruin the game.
Rereading these forums make me feel old >.<

Hey, that's funny., I think almost ALL disc players have esp on them now. anyways, im going to get the psp, ds is just weird holding the stylus in one hand and holding ds in other. and the thumb strap blocks a lot of the screen.
