To those with both a DS and PSP...

For me, "unique" experiences only happen on DS, the PSP has too many ports for a "unique" experience handheld. Untold Legends is an OK kind of game on my book, Wipeout = boring, same with Lumines, Ridge Racer is the SH*T!! DarkStalkers and Twisted Metal are good games...

For the DS, the touch screen does make a difference in gameplay, sometimes bad, and sometimes good, Metroid Prime Hunters... ownage on PSP, I cant wait for it. That and Mario Kart.

For me, the DS didnt have much good games, and the PSP did... The DS needs to have a badass killer app, and Mario Kart and Metroid are just the ones to do it... Online...

So in essence, you chose? lol

Honestly though, I don't think too many people would strive for a DS because of games that will eventually or games that are going to come out.

At this point in time... PSP has the games that attract sales.

The DS makes my hands cramp. Anyone get that with the PSP?

MuGen · 03-29-2005, 04:30 PM

Well honestly, they don't cramp but my hands get tired playing the PSP ... lol... but it'll probably happen if you play it as long as me.

But no.... no cramps for me.

As soon as I start playing it my hands start to hurt. I think it's because the controls are right on the edges. The angle forces your thumbs in tight.

They both give me hand cramps.

Well this guy told me that both handhelds have depleted uranium in them and it makes the hair on your hand fall out...

lol... (winks at Dark Samurai)

vertical ones always did that the worst to me, like the GBC and the GBA SP. i hated the vertical design,

i find with the horizontal ones you can hold them differently to make it more comfortable.

Like i dont hold it with the edges touching my palms or base of my thumbs, i first wrap my index fingers over the sides so they're touching the shoulder buttons first. my other fingers curl up underneth to give it suport, and then i can play with my thumbs fully extended cuz the unit sits higher up in my hand.

I find the PSP to be more comfortable, but thats just me. Nintendo seems to think all their customers have small hands...
