[Question] NDS Lite vs PSP?

The DS is a very good lump of DS. I bought the old faux wood-finish version with gold trim back at the local launch. And for what? Zoo Keeper of course! Best launch game ever? Oh my no (close). Since then I've enjoyed a portable revival of adventure games, a new (NEW) Super Mario Bros. platformer, a game that lets me play as a girl who cries on flowers and burns bridges with that time of the month, a bunch of completely out of nowhere sequels to really dead Taito games, an onrine Marieo Cart, the best handheld pinball game since Revenge of The Gator, at least ten BILLION other enjoyable puzzle games that have actually managed to burn me out on the whole bloody genre (for a while, at least) as well as things that just wouldn't be what they are without the whole touch touch gimmick kiddy thing (EBA/Ouendan LOVE Q Edition, Cooking Mama, Kirby Canvas Curse, extremely long sentences).

Pick past the God awful virtual pet games and you're sure to find lots of STUFF. To me, the DS is the true portable PS2. You know, if PS2 had Sega Saturn graphics. Admittidly, I don't have much experience with the PSP (perhaps Nintendo should release a PSP Training non-game), I've borrowed my mates a number of times though his choice of games does nothing for me (wrestling, basketball, Metal Gear Yu-Gi-Oh) but I like what I see in the library its built up over the years! I even have a stack of games sitting around in my room for it, waiting for the launch of the slim unit next month. I mean even Sega's been making good games for the system, so there's gotta be something magical happening there! At a time when I'm arsing around on public transport more and more, the whole being able to watch videos on it sounds really appealing too. I don't know if it's annoying to convert them but probably, anything that involves computers is. Oh and they may have cancelled the Earthworm Jim remake, but emulation means I'll be able to play the original anywhere! : DOPEY_LOVESMILEYCOMEBACK :

I'm not going to pick one for you, because I'm just wasting a bit of time here typing about me. Me me me! This isn't 1991 though, where the options were Game Boy vs two absolute failures. I reckon you'll be pretty pleased with either system! Have a fun, enjoy!

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Well it's still the only handheld with a good version of Klax..

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Game Boy had Klax, but that was a stink factory decision because Klax is all about colour! Not this rainy day nonsense! You never knew what was going on! Game Gear had Klax, but it looked like a groin rash and played like one too! Game Boy Color had Klax, but it was slow, and flickered like Jimmy jump kicking a goon in the NES Double Dragon! It also lacked the crucial voice samples! Game Boy Advance had Klax, but you have to suffer the pain of having it share a cartridge with the worst Marble Madness ever. That's depressing! For society! PSP had Klax (via Midway Arcade Treasures), but it had C64 style loading times and by the time that's done it may or may not be the 90's anymore, meaning a crisis! A crisis for Klax!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
