I wanna get a PSP, but is it worth it?

Do you know the games you want to get, if you do than go ahead.

I have both and love both. I was on a PSP kick and then got China Town Wars for DS and it is amazing. Save up some money and get the PSP and keep the DS. Unless of course there are more games you want for PSP and you could live without for the DS. Great games on both handhelds. Don't do anything you will regret. Especially if you want the new Pokemon or new Mario and Luigi RPG. By the way, Monster Hunter Freedom 2 RULES!!!!

I think it depends on what you're looking for.
If you're looking for a media-heavy handheld with movies, music, photos, some alright games, as well as the option to download your own firmware, I'd say get the PSP. Or, if you're looking for innovative games that can easily keep you occupied for long periods of time with a variety of fun and original games, I'd say go for the DS.

It's a tough call. I understand the appeal of a PSP; they are great looking HOWEVER

I would say "no" because of one reason: it uses optical technology, which takes longer to load, than the solid state tech of the DS.

This may seem small, but based on my own PSP I don't play it for this one reason. It takes a long time to load.

Sony made the best portable gaming system I have seen, however, it seems based on a vision of people watching movies and listening to music...almost too broad of a vision of what a handheld should be, whereas Nintendo stuck to the niche (wisely) by keeping it simple.

No. No. No. No. Don't waste your money. No. If you do, I'll laugh IRL.ElementDJC

If you have a PS3, having a PSP will be a match made in heaven.

If you don't own a home console then I'd invest in a 360 instead which is roughly the same price. Don't get me wrong, PSP's are awesome, I own two (don't ask!) but IMO there's better quality games available on the 360. If you must get a PSP, I'd do what an earlier post said and keep your DS too. Both the PSP and DS possess their must have titles.

The PSP was a bang for my buck too.

It comes down to what you want but 1 word of advice.

DO NOT give up your DS to get a PSP, I did that years ago and ended up buying a DS again because of the Library I wanted to play.

They are both great handhelds and youll regret loosing your DS. maybe not at first cause youll be hooked on the PSP but after a month or 2 you WILL find yourself saying "Why did I trade my DS away!?"

Save up the cash to buy the PSP on its own.

YES, IT WORTH, there's a lot of great games coming to psp. You should buy psp now.

kepp the DS its not worth selling besides there making new games but you also should get a PSP, stick to the bundles though, not having at least a 1gb memory stick really sucks.
