Thats not true, so lets get the REAL facts straight. The PSP has PS1 graghics and the DS has graghics that are slitly better than N64. Know there graphics would be the same EXEPT the fact that the DS grahics are slitly better than N64. making the DS graghics the better

I don't think either will do that well, but I think the DS will do slightly better than the PSP simply because of the Nintendo name, but the GBA will still have more longevity than either of them.

Sad but, well - I don't want to say true yet, but remember what I said in a year.--

I'll either look like a psychic, or a genius.

No. The graphics for the PSP, at this point, are almost up to par with the PS2. Making the graphics for the PSP better than the PS1's graphics.
The DS's graphics are in between the N64's and the GC, making the graphics on the DS not as good as the PSP.

erm..... no.....

Did any of u guys go over to the tokyo game show? I did, they let u play DS and PSP hands-on. And the PSP graphics were better then the DS, you can also view movies on it.

I'm not saying the DS is worse, its double screen idea was pretty interesting, the bottom screen is a touch pad aswell.

The big difference between the 2 is the generation they are aiming for. sony is going for adults. while nintendo is going for a larger range.

It will be released sooner over here so I'll tell u guys what they are like =P

Sony making something thats graphics out due the compitition, I'm going to need a link to beleave it. I could try to picture that in my mind but just like Play Stations products it's a blurr.

I agree. I've seen pictures of both systems and they have comparable graphics. The PSP's graphics are no better than the DS. Actually, even if the DS has graphics slightly lower than the PS2, the GameCube has better graphics than the PS2 (why do you think Xbox Mag. compares bad graphics to the PS2?), making the two portables still have nearly the same graphics.

For all those who think 2 screens is a gimmick: In Metroid Prime: Hunters, the second screen is used for maps and weapons management. Makes sense to me.

Think of it this way... Remember the Game Gear? It had color, was 8 bit, a good screen quality, and had it backlit screen (?). While the original GB had some piss yellow plastic screen thingy, and was black and white only, with really bad lighting problems...which won out the GB because it had awesome games that were fun and innovative!

Amen

Hey - was that a bump or a sad excuse for a response? Remember, bumping is bad stuff on these forums.

I say I'd rather use a dedicated MP3 Player that will have support for OGG Vorbis.

I would comment that it would be rather hard to "look down" from the bottom, but I'll leave it to myself.

We’ve watched while the stars burned
Out, and creation played in reverse.
The Universe freezing in half-light.
Once I thought to escape.
To end a master, step out of the
Path of collapse. Escape would make us God.
Yet I cannot help but remember one enigma,
A hybrid, elusive destroyer.
This is the one mystery I have not solved.
The only element unaccounted for.

Name one other thing that Nintendo has done that is a gimmick.

PSP screenshots.
And DS.
See the difference?

What I really want is the next GBA. Nintendo has announced that this will not be the next Game Boy, but rather something different.

I respect Nintendo, they always focus on quality, not quantity. I'm going to get the DS first, thats for sure, but that doesnt mean I'm not going to get the PSP. Because Sony doesn't have the greatest record in the world, I'm a little scepticle. If Sony doesn't mess this one up then I'll get PSP. But I'm expecting the DS will have better quality.
