To be honest I'd go with the DS for now. I play mine several hours a day both at home and away. My Wii isn't getting much playtime at all, maybe about an hour a week. Once Smash comes out, though, it will change. The four games I'd recommend, btw, are Yoshi's Island DS, Hotel Dusk, Lunar Knights, and Brain Age, among others ;)

I want Super Mario 64 DS, Metroid Prime Hunters, Big Brain Academy, and Mario Kart DS. What are Hotel Dusk and Lunar Knights?

I would say get the DS lite now and the Wii after the improved version with DVD playback and more memory comes out later this year.

I would buy a DS first. It has better games, better online support, and is portable.

What are they? My two favorite games on the DS is what they are, lol. But yeah, one is a text/character-interaction based adventure and the other is an isometric action rpg. I prefer Brain Age to Big Brain, though.

You mean pwn handhelds right?
No they don't, considering they are in different categories. They apply to different people.

I'd get a Wii first because it's a console, and I would rather have a console before a handheld. But getting a DS first is still a good idea.

Get a DS so you can play it while camping out for the Wii.
