If you were to value handhelds based on graphics, sure, PSP wins hands down. Features? Yes, PSP wins too, thanks to its MP3, video playback, and gorgeous screen.

Games? Sorry, this is the crucial area where NDS is clearly superior. Despite most NDSL games being "only" 2D and sprite based, these games are the ones driving the handheld. It's all about the gameplay, not the graphics. Take Gyakuten Saiban 4. It's a game driven by text with normal 2D graphics, and yet it has been a top seller in Japan already since its release. Weird huh?

NDS topple PSP? Sorry, PSP still has some ways to go to topple NDS, not the other way round.

The PSP is rumored to be revised with touchscreen and 8 gig storage. That really is plenty to party hardy with, not to mention the current firmware already lets you watch AVC (h.264) MP4 movies up to 720x480 size. The Chotto Shot is an excellent add-on that captures beautiful widescreen movies up to 480x272 @ 30fps. That's a great little gimmick to share all your personal memories on places such as YouTube.

OTOH Nintendo this year should be cranking out bigger size screens, although I fail to see how they're going to topple Sony if they don't update their 3D hardware. Most NDS games we see in the market are a throwback to Super Nintendo era, being all sprite-driven. Although the touchscreen capability offers a more varied gaming experience, and that is Nintendo's strong point.

Boy you need to get your facts right. Topple Sony? They alraedy did. Do a simple sales chart comparison search and then you talk.

Depends on your preference. If you grew up in the Playstation era, maybe the PSP is a more suitable handheld for you. It has the same basic controls and you'll feel absolutely comfortable.

But if you want something different, go for the NDSL. Two screens, one touchscreen and the mic makes for some totally different gameplay. And there are lots of games to suit you, no matter what genre you like.

der are very few PSP games, i will addict. Around 1 hour to 1 & half max such as ridge racer, burnout & Winning Eleven.

Tos extensive 3D gfx games is really eyesore after a while.

Touch Screen games is more comfortable for longer-hours playing even though the screen is small. I mean the game wif Good looking 2D style. Not tos crappy 3D gfx game.

If u wan Jack of trade it all, mp3 , movie & internet. PSP is the one to go.

Getting bored wif standarised game-style?!
Get some weird style & inconventionalgame, NDSL~ Touch screen game is much relaxing than thumbing game.

DS games are miles better than the psp's, its a fact. The DS already overthrowed the Psp a gazilion years ago, there need not be no comparison, cause the facts are all there. For media, you can simply buy an R4, a great software that allows your DS to run many different softwares, mp3, watch video, search internet etc etc. What are you gonna do with a psp anyway? Its just so freaking big and bulky that you can't take it anywhere, which probably makes it not so portabvle after all. If you want to listen to music or watch videos, the ipod video is a better choice cause you get better sound quality(way better than the crappy sounds of the pee ass pee) and video quality aswell. Its all in your hands, whether you want to make the right choiuce is up to you.

I'm not sure whether NDS or PSP is good
But I still think choice of games to your liking will probably influence which portable you'll buy

ds and wii....really proves that thoses 1080i/p/wtf are just secondary, the main thing is gameplay. flashy graphics, with turdlike gameplay are just disastrous. personally, i think that most gamers are not ready for the next gen. sure, wii or ds have cartoony graphics..but u cant beat the fun they bring..and the giggles that come with it.damn.pixelated games rulz baby!
