I didnt need to have SpiderMan 2, and all that other crap, for my PSP, and the games. The games are just ports! Nintendo did ONE PORT on the DS, and you suddenly hate it! You are one ignorant mofo...
And the predictability on Mario... I only see his platforming and kart racing games. Thats all, Mario only had, what? 13 plaformers or something? One on the Gamecube and one on the DS... how is that repetative?

Look, this whole argument is founded on whether or not Nintendo is releasing a GBA2. If Nintendo goes through with their plans, then I will defend everything I have said in the past two posts. This is all hypothetical, however, don't be surprised to see a GBA2 on the horizon - especially if the PSP is more than a minor threat.
Regarding the PSP, of course it's going to be more expensive. The thing uses a much nicer screen and has a much powerfuller processor. You can blast its price all you want, but the thing is much more capable (minus the touch screen) then the DS is.
It's not just the predictability of Mario. Nintendo has a habit of reusing ideas and themes.
Look, don't get me wrong, I like my DS. I like it a lot. I think the hardware is great, and I really would like to see some cool games on it. I'm looking forward to what Nintendo has coming, but at the same time, I'm worried that if a GBA2 does come out, the DS will have been a bit of a wasted investment.
