1 It has an outstanding list of quality titles like God of War CoO, Little Big Planet, Medal of Honor Heroes 1 and 2, GTA ChinaTown Wars AAA, Lumines AAAE, Metal Gear Solid AAAE, Twisted Metal Head ON, Final Fantasy Tactics, Final Fantasy, Lunar Silver Star Harmony, Tekken 6, Jak and Daxter and so on.
All of which fail to the power of PHOENIX WRIGHT! In all seriousness though, PSP has only a handful of titles while the DS has the far superior library with more quality titles.
2 Most the multiplats are better on PSP GTA Chinatown Wars the reviewers said on this site is better than the DS version.
In all honesty, GTA Chinatown Wars is a game I didn't even care about. FYI the iPhone version was touted better than both. On here it says PSP is better, but every other site says the opposite.
3 it doesn't have shovelware while the DS has 90% shovelware, Imagine Babiez, Bratz, My Little Baby, My Pet Pony, Hannah Montanna and millions of other I don't know which is worst DS or Wii when it comes to shovelware?
RRrrrrrreeeeeeeeaaaaaaalllllly now? Hannah Montana PSP, PSP MINIs, and shoddy PS2 ports say "HI!". News flash mate, all consoles and handhelds have shovelware. It's only the more popular console/handheld of choice that gets it more (PS1,PS2, Wii, etc.)
4 I bought 16 gigs and am able to place movies and watch them perfectly whenever I go out or have to take an amtrak train Iplug my PSP and relax watching scarface or rambo or halloween if i'm in the mood to watch a movie me and my friend went and were both in that 13 hour amtrak train ride just relaxing watching movies.
News flash - I bought my DS and PSP for one reason only: Games. If I wanted a glorified media entertainment device, I'd get my iphone out and do ALL that WITH better battery life to boot.
5 it's an adult oriented system with hardcore games while DS is kiddie with few hardcore games like GTA CTW which don't manage to sell.
Two words - Bull ****. You "kiddies" can't bother to sit down and play a good game like layton if it bit you up the ***.
6 You can't watch movies on ds or play mp3s, or play any kind of media maybe one day i'm not in the mood to play videogames.
You CAN watch movies and play MP3s on the DSi/DSi XL. But I don't and neither do I do so on my PSP. I play videogames, I expect videogames. Not glorified media that has nothing to do with handheld gaming.
7 PSP has an AAAE class list coming this year 2010 the new God of War, Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker, Kingdom Hearts etc etc things are just looking up.
After how long? Out of that supposed list, the only noteworthy pickup is kingdom hearts. I don't like god of war, I prefer MGS on a console and the etc is not really worth a batted eye.
8 The DS looks like it's 2010 is looking grim what real name brand games are coming out this year, that's not shovelware ?
Layton, Miles Edgeworth, Megaman Zero Collection, ETC.
9 it has an analog and 6 buttons and x,o triangle and square can feel just as good as a second analog when playing a shooter and having an analog is an advantage all ds has is a pen to draw circles and doodle or to put pampers on a babyz and clean up horse poo.
BULL ****. The Analog stick is in a horrid location and whoever though it was a good design obviously didn't plan well enough to implement a second analog stick. Also I find myself playing the DS more BECAUSE THE TOUCH SCREEN ACTS LIKE A SECOND ANALOG STICK.
10 GRAPHICS and I repeat Graphics the PSP graphics are the best graphics of any handheld so far they look like early PS2 titles, who would've thought that would be possible in 2000 or 2001 ? it's amazing to experience this, the ds has not done anything to advance graphics past GBA and the shooters look ugly as sin on DS the graphics can break or make some games and the DS breaks shooters with hideous graphics..
This EXACT reason is the only thing PSP had going for it and the DS told you a straight message: The games and its gameplay speak louder than graphics.
11 Last but not least and my personal favorite reason that PSP is better than DS
ta ta ta taaaa
Legally you can play PSX games on your PSP I bought a whole bunch of my favorite PSX games and placed them on my PSP 16 gig memory stick and they look and play just like the PSX version I am amazed it feels like I fit my PSX in my PSP I have amazing games like, Final Fantasy 7, Castlevania Symphony of the Night, Medal of Honor, Medal of Honor Underground, Metal Gear Solid, Crash Bandicoot, Twisted Metal 2, Street Fighter Alpha 2, Resident Evil 1 and 2, Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy Tactics and am planning on getting more.
This is the ONLY reason out of your entire list that actually stands ground. Shameful fact is that this does not make the PSP better than the DS. These titles, while an added bonus to your PSP play time, were not made on the PSP, they were made for the PSOne. And this reason is signaling to me that without these titles and this reason, your PSP has no ammo against the DS.
