WD's Choice Dilema (Nintendo)
This coming holiday season I've decided to get me a nice Nintendo product as a gift. However, I'm undecied and maybe you guys can help. I been hearing nothing but reviews and positive responses on the games for Nintendo's DS. But I'm also thinking of getting a Wii. After analyze my expenses for the rest of year. It seems I'm gonna be left with only ONE to chose from.
So what do you guys suggest?
Should I go with the Wii?
Or should I go with the DS?
Help WD choose...the Dwarf wants Nintendo this holiday season.
Umm, definetely the Revolution (I hate the name Wii) Sure the DS is cool, but its handheld and the Revolution is next generation. And the DS really doesn't have that many good games. They come out every now and then, and IMO the only good ones are Mario games. Hope that helps

There can only be CHAOS!
I'd have to say to make a good decision, the Wii would have to be out. If the Wii is as cool as it sounds, I'd go with that, personally. But we'll have to see how everything works out.
Get a DS lite now, get a Wii next year when there will be more games for it and when you can afford it. Owning both would be ideal, I'd imagine.
But, if that's not an option, then do as Jkozzy said and wait until the Wii is out, then decide. Not much is known about the Wii right now, really. No one really knows when the big name games will be coming out (besides Zelda), and no one knows how well the controller will work.
I can tell you this though, if you get a DS now you won't regret it. There's so many damn good games out for it already, and another half a dozen or so coming out before the end of the year, you can't really go wrong in buying one. Plus DS games are cheaper.
So yeah, get a DS lite now, Wii next year when there are more games worth buying. That's my answer.

If you're trying to decide between PSP and the DS, than here are some things to think about. PSP game retail for $50.. which is the same price as an Xbox or PS2 game. It can also play movies, but they go for the same price as a dvd (about $20) and you'll probably only watch them on a trip or something. The graphics are much better on the PSP, but the games are mostly straight from the PS2. The DS on the other hand has worse graphics, but it features the touch screen (which is interesting, but nothing to really buy the system for) and has many original games. I'd go with the DS mainly because its $100 cheaper, has more original games, and the games are $15 less.
But whats the difference between buying the PSP because of the graphics than buying DS because of the touch screen. I think the touch screen is alot more important and useful than any snazzy graphics.

Hmm...this is all good. At first I was considering a PSP or a DS. But then as I notice that the Wii looks like a fun console..I just threw out the idea of a PSP. I think getting a DS first would be a good choice and buy the Wii next year for my bday. Damn! So many choices.
Considering how cheap the Wii will be and how great the DS is as well as cheap, I would say DS now and Wii next year. Amazingly you can have both for less than $400 or $500.
