Inferior in what way?

Inferior in entertaining and enticing the consumers. Inferior in selling either hardware or software, inferior in game quality...

I could go on.

I only own a DS. It's fun. I like their two screen/touch screen idea. Some very enjoyable games.

Did you read the title?

DS outselling PSP does NOT prove that it is superior to PSP, HARDWARE-WISE.
'Entertainment' depends on each individual, so that argument is void.

Inferior in software and game quality???
Have you even used a PSP?

Besides software and game quality has NO correlation with hardware. NOTHING AT ALL.

Read people's posts correctly before getting so agitated, occult. GK was following up Lana's post which very clearly indeed said that the DS was superior despite being inferior in hardware.

You simply waste everyone's time by acting like that. You asked the question, he answered. It is close to flaming to respond so.

Incidentally, stuff like the dual screens and touch capacity counts as hardware. So to be more accurate, the PSP has better specs.

Last night's "Gadget show" made the bold claim that the ipod touch will steal the DSi's thunder and become the premier handheld gaming device.

Can't see it happening to be honest. Although I think that the DSi should really be a bigger step up than what it is going to be. A quarter inch bigger screen and 2 crap cameras with little or no increase in hardware performance. Unless they really utilise the cameras to make innovative new apps then it's just a DS with cameras stuck on.

Although I am getting one myself I cannot give the DSi a wider recommendation to anyone who already has a DS, especially a Lite. It's there to keep on selling to saturated markets, really. The SD card slot and potential future virtual console for handhelds is probably the deal breaker for me but it's not going to be for everyone.

The Itouch is a neat piece of gear and going to be popular, certainly, but... Nintendo just have the killer franchises for handhelds still.

No, I've got the original too, and I know of at least four other people who also have it.

the psp is more advanced and technologically superior to the DS but lacks charm, ease of use, durability, a library of good games like that of the DS, and nintendo's infamous penchant for making their handhelds region free so you don't really miss out on anything no matter where you live. Plus UMD movies are just useless.

I'm quite entertained and satisfied with my PsP. I like being able to use the internet, watch movies, call friends and play great games on a handheld game system. The games on the PsP range from classic to shit...,just like any system.

I would say that the Nintendo Ds is inferior in game quality. Most of the games are corny or pointless. What is this charm that people say the PsP lacks? Furthermore, what charm does the Ds have that the PsP doesnt? Anyone who plays on a DS secretly wishes they were playing on a PsP instead, admit it.

Either way, I don't know if Sony is making a profit on the PSP, but if they are, they have no cause for complaint. If they expect to rule every market, they're sadly mistaken. They've definately had their share of failings (Betamax anyone?), I just don't see PSP as one of them.



I know what he's talking about. Sony did say that. They used almost the same exact wording too.


I did a google search and the internet is so saturated with the PSP Go news that I can't get to anything of "back in the day" stuff for the pre-release of the PSP.

That is simple insanity talking. In any case, you are one man trying tio turn back the tide there. Both publically and critically it is overhwlemingly considered that the DS has the better gaming catalogue.

And the point is for all the doodads, when it comes to handheld game systems, people are massively focused on enjoying the games. Not the bells and whistles.
