This machine is the revolution of pocket consoles. The future of gaming.... I just got one today. And im completely amazed by its graphics, abilities, and control.... all the 64 old school games will be hits again. And better games... i think the DS will be a big big hit... and it allready is. |
||||||||

And the PSP shits all over it in terms of raw power. I am yet to be convinced. |

PSP = mini discs DS = cartridges. PSP = probably more expensive, and more expensive games. DS = acceptable price, and quite cheap games.... + ability to play your GBA games... + an easy to use touch screen ability. + no button that has trouble working. looks good to me... :) |

Just hope that the games will follow, because the psp ones will come in shedloads i should think. Nintendo have been silly with licensing issues in the past wich caused a lot of publishers to go with sony. I hope this DS thingy will have lots of games. |

Yeah... i hope so too...... But they will have to if they want to stay in the concurence. Nintendo have been battled off all the time in the past. But they have been quite concitent with their portable machines... Nobody beated them on that field so far. And they have much more experience than Sony in that subject as they had quite a few before the DS. But like you said: "i do hope that the games will follow". but i have a good feeling about it. Im pretty sure they will ;) |

i'll pick up a ds either when it's much cheaper or if a ds sp is released. |

i have a ds... it is pretty average to say the least. other than mario 64 (which is only ok) all the other games are terrible. |

When the first rumours about the DS started leaking out, I thought it was going to be a game & watch with game cartridges. The DS is so huge it's just stupid. A modern g&w dual (wide)screen with replacement games would've been so cool. Now it's just too big. |

Polarium and Wario Ware are both excellent, and Mario is far better than "only ok". The rest of the launch games are shit though, granted, but Yoshi's Touch and Go, which is out soon, will be fantastic. The thing with the DS is that the touch screen gives you an instant familiarity with the system, rather than having to get used to a set of buttons or whatever you're able to control the games directly just by touching a panel. My main concern is that there will be too many gimmicky games who rely solely on the use of the stylus - I can imagine "Super Signature Forger" and so on - so far the games I mentioned have made use of the screen in an effortless and creative way, but I can't see this continuing for very long, which is why I think the PSP will long outlast the DS, but it's still a good, fun system, and at £99 I'm not complaining. |

traditionally, nintendo games usually cost more than their competitors by about 10-15 dollars.. i wouldn't expect that to change with the ds/psp. |
||||||||
|

polarium was only twenny pouns |
||||||||
|

i totally agree... But not so sure about the PSP outlasting the DS. We'll just have to wait and see about that. :) |

nintendo still has the right idea about pocket-gaming and also simple games. games are getting to ocomplicated these days ... im glad someone in the market still has the right idea ...go nintendo |

apparently the psp can connect to wifi internet and play games online.. now that is cool. |

DS is jus too big to call it pocket consdole |

psp is a shit, nintendo DS is wonderful, touch screen, wireless, dual screen.... I'm italiam but i've ordered it from Japan, and Super Mario '64 DS from New Jork. ^_^ TDN |

the PSP will be interesting when they'll have solved (if they do it, but they'd better!) that scandalous square button issue... (and dead pixels and all that, if that can be done) what worries me about the DS is when i see the appalling state of the touch screen in the shop where it's been on free try... i hope it doesn't get that fucked if you use it normally. |

tridenti, people will start believing you work for nintendo... ; ) |
||||||||

|
|
imo, the only relevant question at this time is: when will nintendo release a newer version of this console, and why do i even still bother buying (portable) consoles, if they are getting 'upgraded' as fast as, let's say PC processors? I just hate the fact of being a tester for nintendo's new prototype toy, paying way too much for it too. |

you're right... yesterday evening i heard the "GBA 2" was already planned. |

i just purchased a DS with mario 64, game is great and controls surprisingly well without analogue controller, graphics are glorious too, the metroid demo is awesome, gameplay and graphics included. I checked IGN.COM to check future games and i have not seen anythin that comes close to interesting me, i have followed nintendo all thru my childhood and have NES,SNES,64,Gamecube. I dont like PS2 at all, i never thought Sony matched nintendos flawless control system. I just hope new mario and zelda games for DS will out expand shelf life of DS compared to PSP |

i totally agree with you rudster. sony ps2 and psp are shit! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

PS2 is really great.... but i think Sony should stick to home consoles. Trying to make it portable might only be a big fat mess for them. They should let Nintendo deal with that... They have the past experience to create the best portable consoles. Sony's first one will be quite buggy in my opinion... But then i might be wrong. |

ok, you really work for nintendo then. o_O |

I got a DS in November on launch day (US). The screen doesn't have a scratch, I suggest getting Mario (of course, it's worth the mini games alone), Zoo keeper (The touch screen makes this SOOO addictive), Band Brothers ( a really cool music game), and Wario Touch . If PSP was cheaper and made by a company that didn't make shit hardware, maybe I'd be interested. Fuck Sony! |
||||||||
|
|

I would hope so. Then the games for that could be reverse compatable with other GBA games |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
fuck sony |
||||||||
|

Mario64DS was a lot of fun and even better than the original. I went and bought Castlevania: Aria Of Sorrow for my DS and its fuckin sweet too, I'm so addicted to getting everything in that game. Lots of playtime invested, let me tell you. |
