i wanted to buy a handheld but was in dilemma now
previously for a long time already wanted to get psp
but with current trend people over the net keep trashing the psp (even tho i enjoyed playing friend's psp)
and people keep comparing it with n3ds while all my other friend that have handheld, all buy psp instead...

i don't mind the specs, but its functionality and its future cost after buying, you know, like a handheld should be...

3ds belum keluar lagi la dik. so for now its psp or nothing

3ds haven out yet, cant compare.
psp got more action hardcore game.
nds got more casual game.
both got great games.
buy depends on the game u wanna play.
psp can watch video, listen music and browse internet, nds can too but not as good as psp in media thing except u get DSi

You already comparing lol.

I own a PSP2000 and just got a Go recently. IMO, i find that the library of games on PSP is more suitable for me than NDS/3DS library of games. a lot of the games on NDS/3DS feel gimmicky and not really utilising the touchscreen. i own a NDS before and after playing games like Nintendogs, Cooking mama etc, i decided to sell it off. I just don't like the games.

So, basically,:

1. check which games you want to play most.
2. buy the system associated with the games.

Buy NDS and it's successors if you like Pokemon, Mario, Digimon, brain teaser type of game. Some notable hits that are exclusively for NDS are such as Elite Beat Agent, Etrian Odyssey (which I like the most) and so on.

Buy PSP if you like larger screen (still pixelated though) and intend to play retro games as well as emulators (SNES, GB, GBC, GBA, etc).

i refute your logic here. i buy PSP becos they have current gen games that i want to play. DJ Max series, God of War, Dissidia Finaly Fantasy, Crisis Core: FFVII, Megaman Powered up, Persona 3 Portable, Castlevania Dracula X chronicles, Metal Gear solid Peace walker etc etc.

ts must have time machine, since he can get a n3ds way ahead of everyone else......

no need pening - just buy both. problem settled.

get PSP now, when 3DS release then find way to get.

3DS lagi satu tahunlah...u crazy mau fikir2 that long?

just buy a used psp..settle

well thanks to all
looks like psp is the answer
turns out most people i found on the net keep trashing psp is actually sony hater come from america who think sony is a threat to microsoft in their 'console war'

i'm closing this topic
