DS VS. PSP - Ownage

[slip81]

I have only the DS with two games, Trauma Center: Under the Knife and Nintendogs Best Friends. But there are easily 20 games that I really want for the system, while the only game I want for the PSP is the new GTA.

I love the DS, and I'll probably get a PSP as well, but not untill I can get the system along with GTA for under $150. So it'll be a long while.

[joshnickerson]

Lord, let's see...

Feel The Magic
Kirby Canvas Curse
Nintendogs
Phoenix Wright
Polarium
Super Mario 64 DS
Trace Memory
Trauma Center
Zoo Keeper

And there's about a dozen or so games still on my radar, released and unreleased. I'm just too much of a cheap bastard to buy them all! *L*

[Arkaign]

When $99 new-model DS is available, I'm first in line

[boatofcar]

I've got a PSP, and the sheer fact that it will make me upgrade my firmware will keep me from buying any more than the one game I have for it (THPS). I dunno, maybe I'll pick up Lumines once it goes GH.

I will buy a DS Mario Kart bundle on launch. Then I will buy Animal Crossing. Then I will be happy.

From a gaming standpoint, DS>PSP in my book, outside of NES emulation. That's all the PSP is to me at this point.

[Famidrive-16]

Super Mario 64
Kirby: Canvas Curse
WarioWare Touched
Trauma Center

I'll probably pick up Castlevania or Phoenix next week...

[Rogmeister]

I don't have a PSP (don't plan to get one either) and I only bought my DS 6 days ago so obviously my collection of games for it is small so far...3 titles at this point...

Nintendogs: Dachshund & Friends
Super Mario 64 DS
Zoo Keeper

I do plan to get more, of course. I know I'll be getting the DS Animal Crossing next month but have an open mind otherwise.

[classicb]

I'm still waiting on the PSP I think it almost has enough games that I want for me to get it but the games are also more money so that's also kind of a road block.

DS wise I'm loving it (that's a big N WiFi joke)

I've got

Meteos
Advance Wars Duel Strike
Metroid Pinball
Nanostray
Zoo Keeper
Trace memory
Kirby Canvas Curse
Polarium
Wario Ware Touched
Super Mario 64 DS
Feel The Magic
Puyo Pop Fever
MP:H Demo

With about five more that I plan on buying soon. Sorry no 360 for me too many other great games out or coming out.

[djbeatmongrel]

Well i'd like to be interested in the psp *got muhself a DS* but there isnt much going for it except for emulation.

heres my reasons for not liking:
-Costs too much for a portable
-Games cost more than ds ones
-most of the games already have superior counterparts on home consoles
-theres little to no innovative games

the DS is the inverse when it comes to these points
-fair price
-games cost less
-many titles can not be acquired on a home console
-lots of fresh games

not listing my GBA titles (considering i bought them when i got the DS) here is my DS collection:

Feel the Magic: XY/XX
Lost in Blue
Meteos
Metroid Prime Pinball
Mr. Driller Drill Spirits
Nanostray
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney
Ping Pals
Puyo Pop Fever
Retro Atari Classics
Space Invaders Revolution
Trace Memory
Trauma Center: Under the Knife
Zoo Keeper

Just two games for DS:

Nintendogs Dachshund and Friends
Nanostray (which was a mistake, I admit)

I'd like to get Trauma Center eventually, but I doubt I'd ever find the time to play it.

I have a PSP. I had fully intended to do a complete collection and started out well. At one point I owned 16 games for it. I looked at all of the games that I had completed. Many, like MediEvil, had no replay value and I decided to scrap the collecting idea and trade them in while they had decent value. I now keep games like Lumines and HotShots and trade those with no replay.

The DS is calling my name. I like the lower retail prices of the games and it looks like a very strong system to own. I've never seen one in action. My question is....does the image look as crisp and clean as a PSP? I had 2 GBAs and wasn't impressed enough by the image quality and lack of backlighting to keep them around.

[ThirdEyeSharingan]

I have both a DS and PSP. Right now I spend a lot more time playing with my DS. Games like Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow, Super Princess Peach, Jump Superstars and Trauma Center Under the Knife are excellent. I do use my PSP, but more for watching movies. Right now the DS rules, but the PSP has some interesting upcoming titles. Rockman X Irregular Hunter, Exit, Karakuri and the Talkman language toy all look promising.

[kevin_psx]

When does the DS Player come out - so I can play it on full-screen?

[Mayhem]

DS >> PSP at the moment. I have 6 PSP games and at least 20 DS titles. No contest which I'm finding more fun to play.

[Enixis]

Yea the DS definitely has better games at the moment. I might pick one up before christmas.

[captain nintendo]

Just a DS, only 5 games. That number would be much larger if the 360 weren't so close to launch.

Bingo !

Same number of games and the metroid demo that came with it.

I would probably own another 10 games if I had not paid off my 360 some games and accesories.

The DS and the game selection have made me a handheld believer.

I dont own a PSP yet, but would like to. Its cool and you can do so many things with it.

The game selection isnt as good as the DS (IMO), But I am sure it will get there. *shrugs*

[xaer0knight]

i have 4 DS games now. Castlevania DS, SMB64DS, Nanospray, and Polarium.... Nanospray and Castlevania were the reasons i picked the system, i would like to get more but my N64 is getting no attention.

IMO PSP is just to expensive and hearing how arrogant the creator about its flaws and saying that no one should questions its design when it comes to the X button Sticking and its PSP disc shotting out...

[MuppetMaster]

Well I ditched the PSP in favor of the DS and now have the following games:

Nanostray
Trauma Center
Phoenix Wright
Feel the Magic
Metroid pinball
Harry Potter:Goblet of Fire
Pac n Roll-JP
Star Wars Episode 3-JP
Lost in Blue
Zoo Keeper
Advance Wars DS
Castlevania DOS
Rayman DS
Ultimate Spiderman
MP demo


and I preordered Bubble Booble Revolution ( will release on the 24th JP).

More quality titles coming as well! Mario Kart, Viewtiful Joe, Bust a move!

[DDCecil]

I've had my DS for about a month now. Even though I've handled it very carefully, the outside is getting marked up and my screens are now getting some small scratches. I have 6 games for it:

Castlevania: DoS - Already through my 3rd time through it and I'm not even bored of it yet!

Super Mario 64 DS - I'm enjoying playing this on here than I ever did on the 64.

Feel the Magic XY/XX - Awesome, and I can't wait for the sequel in Feburary.

I also have:

Polarium
Atari Retro DS
Yu-gi-oh: Nightmare Troubadour

I don't really care for the last 3 games, but the first 3, WOW. I do want to pick up a couple of imports (Jump Superstars, Ganbare Goemon, and Osu! T-whatever). I also want to get Mario Kart DS, Phoenix Wright, and Trauma Center pretty soon.

The PSP, well, I'll get one, one of these days.
