Looking for a portable

^topic

I've looked at both and each has a few exceptional games. So I've decided to ask for an opinion of those who own or have played both. Which do you play more/like better? I can afford one but not both. Fanboyism is unwelcome. Thanks for all honest and relevant responses.

PSP definately. The DS is so bad it's actualy hilarious.ScrunchMuppet

and if you listen to him, you might as well ask Bill Gates if Windows is reliable :)

Flip a coin to decide and buy reccomended software for either platform that you flipped. Entertainment will follow after you picked up said software.

Honestly... I play the DS more. There's pluses and minuses but what I think the deal breaker is for PSP is that there really aren't enough games out I like... yet. In addition, the poor battery life is irksome. That isn't to say I don't love it. I can't WAIT for this year's lineup. But again, telling you from my personal experience, I use the DS almost five times as much.

DS has minigames. PSP is real games.MrBlackbeard

Final Fantasy III, the two Castlevania games, Mario Kart DS, Mega Man ZX, Advanc War: Dual Strike...ya..those are all mini games :roll: 

Have both and like both. 

Easiest way to decide is check the top 20 or so games for each and see which one appeal more to you.  If you're especially into sports/racing games you should head for the PSP.  If not probly head for the DS.

no he didn't :| 

It depends what type of gamer you are and how you purchase games.
I love the DS because

1) Its fun

2) It has 3 bright settings

3) Nintendo warranty and fix policy is awsome! They'll replace it if there is even ONE pixel stuck, as compared to PSP where you need FIVE, and ALL IN THE SAME QUADRANT. And you still have to argue.

4) If you buy used games, DS rocks because you can play a ton of really good GBA games cheap.

But if you love hi-res graphics and a handheld multimedia device, go for PSP

DS.

psp is trash 

Get the one with the most games you want.

I chose the DS over the PSP because of games like Hotel Dusk, EBA, etc., and because it can play GBA games, too.

However, if you want the BEST portable, get the GBA -- it can play GBC games, and the GBC has some really great games. :P

Ahh! But dont forget!

You can hook up your PSP to a PS3 driving game and use it as a REAR VIEW MIRROR! WOW!

The DS has ebtter hardware, better exclusives and a brighter future

The PSP can play MP3's

your call 

well i have both and even theough having GTA to play anywhere is like crack its kinda limited cause u cant see it in sunlight also haveing Animal Crossing to play anywhere is also like crack plus then there is Mario Kart and whatever else u will enjoy also the ds is easier to carry around so im going to go with ds on this one assuning u already have an ipod that is if not psp is your machine

my vote still goes to ds

Really I'm not going to buy a game I could play on my console/comp but I like being able to have music/vids; I wouldn't watch movies on a portable.I think there's a way to get a DS to store music/vids. If so they're pretty much feature for featureRelived

Well, isn't it true you have to buy a  mem card to store music/vids on a psp?Relived
