The next generation of handhelds is here. (No one cares about your Palm, Palm.) The Nintendo DS, and the Sony PSP. Before we break them into catagories and such, I've scanned pictures from the Nov. 2004 issue of GamePro magazine. (Sorry, the scans kinda suck.)

DS

PSP

Design:

PSP - Looks damn sleek. It's big, it looks bitchin. Good enough. 10/10

DS - Looks innovative. Can fold up. 2 screens, can use a stylus. That silver look rules. 10/10

Size:

They're both fucking huge. The (Nintendo) SP was really tiny, you could fit it in any pocket, but now you need a big fucking pocket to hold these damn things. 2/10

Battery life:

PSP - That CD motor + big ass screen = Battery life at 0%. 5/10

DS - Two backlit screens. 7.5/10

Games:

PSP - You know what it's going to have. Bullshit variations of PS and PS2 games, but they're still fun. 7/10

DS - Metroid! ...and Mario Kart. That's about it. 6/10

Overall - I don't want to jump to conclusions, but thus far, I'm liking the DS more than the PSP, which is awkward, because I usually hate Nintendo products. The PSP is just big, and more expensive nevertheless. The DS looks cool, ok games, and, blah. Untill I try them both out, it's a 60-40 split with the DS in the lead.

palm isnt even in this category Q...

i dont really care.. id rather get the PSP though... i wonder if once DS is out for a while retards that wanna use my palm (and i finally let them) wont stab it anymore with the stylus... i mean its so ANNOYING they start HITTING IT.. i swear its like my palm brings out their evil!

so yeah.. itd be nice.. like 40% of the DSs will be returned cuz the retards dun know the proper ammount pressure for stylus use.

anyway DS will survive because of one game. Pokemon.
