Default PSP or DS?

As we all know two of the major games companies are both releasing new handhelds. So which would you rather buy. Nintendo's DS or Sony's PSP.

Well obviously our fellow Nintendo fans will buy the DS. Personally I'd go with the PSP, but if I had the money, I'd buy both. :P

I probably won't buy either, but if I were to buy one, it would be the PSP.

ds without a doubt.... i am getting sick of playing the same games over and over... plus i'd like to see the gaming world head into a new direction. i love the concept.

i'll probably eventually get both, after the PSP have "proven" itself. but i'm not going to get it for the games announced yet. none seem that great so far. yes, to me, none seem so wonderful.

but i'd buy the ds for mario 64 by 4 alone.

(halo, the only game i play on xbox, what's the difference?)

Touche. I'm not interested in a Metal Gear RPG, but Mario 64 was one of the funnest games I ever played. I'll take Mario 64 over any Sony product anyday. And, think about Zelda. Yes, I know, exciting isn't it.

Halo is amazing. (Can't wait for Halo 2. *giggles*) I don't think we'll see Halo on the DS or PSP, but it would be cool if we did. And heck, maybe we'd see it on the DS, seeing as how there is a Halo in developement for the GBA.

Im not going to buy either, because frankly handhelds dont really get my rocks off, but if i had to pick one of them, it would be the PSP. But if i wanted one, i would undoubtedly get the other.

With the launch of the PSP and DS 2D gaming will officially be dead. The GBA has helped keep 2D gaming alive, but after Nintendo admits that the DS is actually the GBA2 (Come on, Nintendo can't support two handhelds at once), we won't be seeing to many more 2D games. I'm going to miss the days of Mario Brothers 3 and Castlevania.

Screw the PSP, really. Battery life is just looking to screw us all, and really.. it's too big to be portable.

I want DS for one thing: Animal Crossing. Oh god, that's going to be sex. And all the other 119 games for it are going to be good.

Fun, it's another one of these. I'm not into portables anymore though. I could get higher quality games and still save money. I don't buy many games anymore.

But, I do like these threads. These are the classic threads. Threads that separate the fanboys from the spectators. Lookie, a fanboy!
