how old is your son?. i think psp will suit your boy. ds got many exclusive games but psp will be a better choice since u can do more not just playing games. playin mp3s n movies in psp will surely make your son happy

the screen size of psp is bigger than nds n the graphic quality is superior if compare with nds.

IMHO depends on your son's age....

If let's say your son has just pass his PMR and u realize that the games he play are mainly action games... Then PSP will be the best as when kids steps into form 4... they will pretty much like gadgets and not a gaming console only....

But lets say your son just finish his UPSR and enjoy playing games like POKEMON and etc... go get him a NDS.... games are more educational, suitable for all age....

jacster,i agree with the PMR bit,but not with the UPSR bit.My dad got me a psp unit once i scored straight A's for my UPSR and to me,it was a brilliant gadget to own.Only then i started learning more and more about the internet,computer and so on.

But other than that,jacster is totally right.

I still love pokemon lol!
I play it on my psp.

It is possible to be done mate,using emulators.
You can run gba,gbc,nes,snes and a couple of other console games on your psp.I've played pokemon before,and it works like a charm.

Here are some links,if you want them :

Go here

There you go.All you need to do once you've got the emulator up and running is to obtain some roms.Just note that it's illegal,therefor,asking links on where to obtain them in here,wouldn't be wise at all.Use your google skills and you'll be perfectly fine.Emulators are like the best thing on the psp.
