The PSP, however, as the DS, will draw people because of some of the names behind it (FFVII anyone? *rest of the world goes YESPLZ*) Not all PSP games are ports. Quote:
What Nintendo and Sony should do is give as much freedom for developers to work with on their next gen consoles. This means giving the option for good graphics (because, despite how some people believe graphics are inversely proportional to gameplay, a lot of people like them. The majority decides.) giving plenty of storage space, and making the console a solid platform with features we know from experience work. Such as online play. @Brittany: IMO he wasn’t flaming. It’s his opinion, and in debates, you’ve got to try and accept it, argue the logic, and so on. Ho does the PSP have better “gameplay”? The games decide that, not the hardware. Not good graphics, not dual screens. The games. I think he means the PSP has no games on its own; that they’re all PC game ports. Which isn’t true @Pheonix: Please read the thread about when 3D is NOT greater than 2D, just different. You don’t “step up” from 2D. |

On topic- I've returned my DS two times now(my uncle is so persistant), but this time with better reasoning(mostly just to not hurt his feelings :P). I think I'll be getting the DS when it gets released in Black(onyx, jetblack, whatever black they use xD) |
He did say from his POV. What that says about his POV is up for you to decide and judge, based off the statement.
Debating is fun. ^_^ |

Adding more innovation into the mix isn't a negative thing. It's better to have more options than to simply make a rehash system of a console. If a piece of technology wasn't found to be useful, then it will be removed in the next Nintendo portable system. Quote:

And there is no truth in what either of us are saying, except when we link to statistics. Because the PSP being a POS is your opinion. Me thinking they’re both a waste is my opinion. I’m not trying to pass it off as fact. I thought you were criticizing my debating style? Quote:

Meh neither handheld empresses me I wish they would of stayed with the SP.

“This has huge potential. It's very nice that we can create games using DS that were not possible before.” -- Yoichi Haraguchi, Vie President of Namco “When Nintendo came down and presented the DS platform to us, … I think everyone was in shock. It was amazing. … Our technical and central technology guys were kind of drooling at the abilities and wanting so much to program and dive into programming for the system. … Nintendo DS, I believe, is a revolution in change for hand-held gaming.” -- Will Kassoy, vice president, global brand management, Activision “The Nintendo dual screen is something that we’re really excited about developing for. It’s very innovative, which is classic Nintendo.” -- Nick Earl, vice president and general manager, Electronic Arts “The fact that touch panels can be associated with many terms about touching that we never had, such as touch, push, feel, rub, slide and pat is wonderful. … I have been working in this industry for 20 years. During that time I made many games. But I think this is the first time that we have a new input device.” -- Yuji Naka, senior corporate officer, development division, Sega Nintendo DS is “a new game machine that will build the future of the game industry. … Our frontier spirit has been awoken.” -- Tsunekazu Ishihara, chairman and CEO, Pokémon “Nintendo DS is going to push the hand-held technology to really uncharted territories. By that I mean that it’s going to bring amazing new game mechanics, new game design.” -- Yves Blehaut, senior vice president, Atari “I think the DS will stimulate the process of game development.” -- Tomofumi Gotsubo, president and CEO, Konami of America You said that developers didn't like the added peripherals? Few games are out now. You can't expect that a system's features will be fully taken advantage of at the onset of the system's life. Pressure seems to be nonexistant with developers regarding the DS. Indeed, there is a great sense of enthusiasm and renewed creativity. Where was your point going? |
As soon as I get well I’ve more points to make, although perhaps the pressure isn’t as bad as I’d feared. But yeah, just letting you know I’m still in this. ^_~

Like I said many times before, waiting is probably the best option to take, considering that zilch is really known about these products game-wise. =/ |

What I can say is, usually what the deveolpers say is true, but there are the rare occasions where the two are totally different things, which is what your saying. |
Quote:
*you're :P Anyway, what I'm saying is, assuming the best for a product, when we have almost nothing to base it on, isn't a particularly smart move. Of course, you may be right, but it's still a risky move in my opinion. Of course, developers will love it's novelty design and features, but saying that it is easy or even feasable may be words that we shouldn't put into developer's mouths. Utilizing those features may compromise classic gameplay. Why? -Cartridge space is low. -Hardware's performance is behind the times- finding balance(more of a compromise IMO) between gameplay and features always has to be met to make the game run smoothy. -Usage to appeal to gamer's interests Sacraficing what we already have, to get new 'features' is a dilemma developers will have to face sooner or later. |

If a developer says that they will be able to do many things with a system and they continue to develop for a system, that developer hasn't any pressures regarding "forced innovation". That's all I was trying to say. The new features on the DS will allow games to be made and played in different ways, unlike the PSP. The PSP's name says it all. It's just a portable Playstation 2. The games for the PS2 have already been done. The genres available and hardware limitations have been established, and if anything, a portable version of the PS2 will have more limits than the actual PS2 (i.e. Where's the analogue stick?). In effect, there will likely be more rehash than anything else. That's Sony's problem with their portable device. |
Quote:
PSP isn't just going to be a portable PS2. It will have it's share of PSP-only games- especially when PS3 gets released. I don't think PSP will come any close to the graphics possible with PS3 and it's Cell. Considering that PS2 could perform PS1's FMV graphics as gameplay graphics, I expect the future to follow in a similar fashion. *dreams of CG cinemas being performed in real time* Oh yes PSP does have it's analogue stick, you may have not noticed it. :\ |

Sadly I don't own a PSP for myself yet though, I was at my uncle's house. :( |
It is a Analog nub,not a stick of any sort.
|
It's an analog disc, not stick or nub.
|
Call it what you want, but it serves it's purpose, and it works nicely. I wouldn't want a stick poking out of my pocket anyway.

Sony and Nintendo should be using the analogue device (on the left) on the above PC controller. It works as well as a conventional stick and it is no more high than buttons. I have a controller like this, and the control is nice. |
I choose for PSP,
Simply because I really liked the playstation far more then the n64. And it will be probably the same for PSP and DS. The Playstation had, Better graphics Better games, it had much more games and also longer games. (the good RPG's for example) Better controlller Discs >>>>>>>> Carts And the idea of the touch screen, is pretty useless. It is really difficult to control, it takes for ever to get used to it. And the very kiddy games on the DS are one reason I won't buy it. If I would be younger (like 10) I might have bought one. |

A game can be programmed to interpret an analogue stick like a D-pad, but the controls on the converse just stink. Mario 64 was easier to play than Mario 64 DS.
|
That’s a point I made way back, somewhere in here. Kinda disappointing, cause frustrating controls can often cover up a good game. That’s why they should stick with 2D or games that actually use the stylus, like Warioware. >P

i go for the ds^__^and i dont know if its told here yet the psp has a cooling problem o.0; its get overheated after a little time>_<
