Firstly, the PSP does have some memorable games, not that I know of, but I can name Lumines and Killzone. But hey, they got Parappa the Rapper!
And secondly, that's a DAMN GOOD question. Never seen before.
But I seriously can't give a yes/no answer at the moment. Because the arguement of console vs. handheld, and PSP being 'just like' PS2(a home console) confuses me much.
But in my opinion, I'd say yes. The PSP does what the PS2 does, and more. Plus, it's a portable.
Simple, if you were to choose between these two Ninty product, which would you choose?
A Nintendo 64? Or a Nintendo DS? (DS is just as, or even more powerful than N64)
Quite clear
One good example would be Metroid Prime Hunters, a first-person-shooter. With the touch-screen, aided with the stylus or the thumbstrap, the touch-screen aims works just like a mouse. Well, not many people would believe that, but it really does work. Metroid Prime Hunters just felt like Quake 1 on a DS.
How about other games you say, I'm trying to think of something 'new'.. but this game was rather old, Kirby's Paint Brush or something like that.. It's a simple 2-d sidescroller, Kirby had arms and legs, but in this particular game, his arms/legs were erased
So basicly, you've got this magical paintbrush(stylus) to help him move around. Simply tapping Kirby will make him dash(he moves on his own), but if there's a pit infront of him you can draw a bridge for him to cross. You can even draw a shield for him, for temporary protection. But these paints wears off after time, so.. strategy abit la
Just a few good uses and implementations of DS games, something the PSP cannot achieve.
You're welcome. I enjoy these discussions.
thx for excellent examples.
but im curious (frankly ive never actually play ndsl before, so this may sound a bit stupid...), when u play with stylus, and your other hand is holding the console, isnt that abit tiring?? bcoz u need to support the entire console with only one hand...(except if you put it on a flat surface - like on a table - while playing)
pls share with us your experience. thx.
unlike ndsl, ive actually tried my hands on psp. i was playing a tennis game (so its an action game), when i tried to move the tennis player around, my hands tend to move together too (ya know, just like when we play on a home console), and thus the screen moved and my eyes needed to follow the movement too....wah...damn tiring lar...
anybody face the same problem? or its just me??

For PSP, I never got the chance to play outside, basically 1 of the prob is the battery long lasting. 2ndly, the loading time takes forever (1. load the UMD > enter PSP screen > Game loading > Menu > Load saved file > Loading > Game starts) These loading will ruin my time while waiting and I only can enjoy for a bit. 3rdly, its really hard to see the PSP's screen when u r under the sunlight, possibly u can see it at all! 4thly, good thing bout psp is some of the game like music genre games are suitable for psp, while fighting games are poorly done on psp, especially tekken and street fighter, I have prob fighting probably like wad we do on ps2 or arcade and my hand gets tired after holding the psp for a while.
For NDS, the loading speed is alot faster than psp. you could say most of the game does not need loading at all. Thats why playing ds with little waiting time can let u go furthur gaming. the screen is visible even its under the sunlight, though it hard to see. you cant say nintendo games are for kids, nintendo games are for those who don play games and those who wanna play a quick game, friendly games and fun games. The thing bout ds lite is that the surface is easily printed smudge on it and it can be scratch easily if not careful.
So then, I like psp, but i prefer ndsl
so psp is for those who prefer indoor+has more time for games??
then wld/t it be more realistic to own a home console instead??
can SWATwolf kindly further explain on: "nintendo games are for those who don play games", please? keen to know your view on this lar.

i owned a psp... so for SWATwolf.. ur problem is not that major... u need more power get extra batt pack.. there got sell bigger power bank in the market, as for loading time, i think its not that long if u know how to make it short... hahaha i assume u have original copy of ur UMD, so what u can do is make a iso copy of ur umd.. load it in ur mem stick then walla.. done.. but for this to happen u need to have the nifty OE firmware and big mspd.. 2gb can say ok la.. but another problem is all this = to more cash.. haha
ok, so now psp is for those who prefer indoor+has more time for games+
loaded with cash??
________________________________________________________________
another question, its abt firmware.
for psp, dont we have a specific firmware tt can do every damn thing?? or we need to upgrade/downgrade everytime we wana try something new??
for ndsl, do we have problem with firmware??
yday read on paper that the new psp (on sales in Japan in Sept) can actually watch TV prog (of coz, with an additional device lar). so its getting clear that Sony is positioning psp as a multimedia entertainment machine, rather than a pure gamming machine.
so perhaps the question that lies within the potential handheld buyer (like myself) is: u want a multi function entertainment machine, or u just want a cool solid gamming machine?

. Just got it this week. But I feel she would like the NDSL better. She's a Mario fan and also she complained before that there's no games for her to play on the PSP before even I have a whole loads of games with me.
