my brother has a psp and it is sweet. but i can't afford one.

RonnieoftheRose · Apr 9, 2005, 03:51 PM

The DS must be selling well.

ReggieX · Apr 9, 2005, 05:43 PM

Don't have time to play the games I already have, so no.

theJoKell · Apr 9, 2005, 11:22 PM

If I had to buy one, it'd be the PSP. But I don't have either and I don't plan on buying either of 'em.

Socially Awkward Solo · Apr 10, 2005, 01:39 AM

Wow, look who's winning

ort888 · Apr 10, 2005, 02:01 AM

Right now just a DS. At some point though, I will own both. Probably by the end of the year.

I'm either waiting for a game I'm dying to play or for them to release it at a lower price. Preferqably without the headphones and all that junk I don't need.

However, if my girlfriend hadn't bought me this DS, I would already have a PSP. As it is, I can't justify spending $400+ bucks on portable gaming systems in a span of 2 months.

If nintendo ever comes out with Palm like apps for the DS I might get one... no chance of a PSP though.

does star wars guy get to log in with his numerous accounts and vote psp for each one?

'None' so far, which is kinda ironic after all the flame wars here

Same here - I have a gamecube that I bought back when they had the Zelda collection a couple of years ago - I think I might have played it for an hour.

Ya, if you took a poll over who ones anything "None" will always win. Makes you wonder why they come in here in the first place

That aside the PSP is more than double.

When I read the thread title, I thought of my old Game Boy, so I found it and played a bit.

Great fun!

That is what I was about to say.

Most of us don't care.

I thought people stopped playing with these toys in High School anyhow.

No. I'm way past High School.

Cellery · Apr 10, 2005, 02:57 PM

I own both, though I'm surprised that so few do. After beating Mario 64, the DS has been gathering dust, I'll probably get it out again when Castlevania is released. I'm still working my way through the PSP launch lineup, though I've had a Japanese unit since January. The color bleeding on the screen bothers me, so I don't watch movies on it. I'd still take it over the DS's screens though.

-original GAMEBOY system shown-

ah, so cool (mine was green), that is really a classic design.

Anyway my perfect portable system is this one:

I want a system that fits inside my pocket, not my shoulder bag

insert_coin · Apr 10, 2005, 04:28 PM

Wow!! the game console with the code name "None" must be superb in all senses!!!

Agreed.

I'll take that bet. Who owns a computer?

Actually, that might be pretty close, but I don't think "None" would win it.

Right, that is a great poll for the internet on a computer forum.

Try, who owns a vacuums.

RonnieoftheRose · Apr 10, 2005, 07:28 PM

People are voting for the hell of it because we certainly never heard from these 16 DS and 25 PSP owners.

(1) Maybe the constant bickering between the same few people scares them away or
(2) Maybe they just don't want to talk about it?

Possible.

I can understand DS owners staying silent after the comparison screenshots I posted.

mdc · Apr 10, 2005, 07:47 PM

... or they realize graphics are only a small part of what makes a game. And that's all I have to say on that subject.

All I have to say is that lumines the highest rated game on the PSP is not about looks. It is about an amazing gameplay experience.

I agree. Congress should summon them so we can find out the truth behind this whole mess,

Stogieman · Apr 10, 2005, 11:43 PM

Today's my 30th birthday and guess what I got?.... That's right, a PSP!!!

Poor lad.

I don't own either.

And I could buy a handful of PSPs, and SWF AND his Sister.

AS far as that goes, I would buy a PSP before I would a DS.

But I would buy a GameCube before them all. Just for the Zeldas.

Not that his or anyone's sister would want you. What's a girl supposed to do with you? Pat you on the back when you hit 30,000 posts?

Zimphire · Apr 11, 2005, 12:23 AM

I know a few dozen sisters that would disagree with you.

My sister is not a whore for 30 something Christians with an ego.

Not a whore for anyone actually so don't imply it.

Wow, does something like that happen when you come out with a new console?
