I want to get the DS so I can play Mario Kart online. But I got a PSP and I love it I just wish they would put more RPG on it.

DS Lite does indeed look worthwhile. But no release date on it? Dang.

New memory stick 1Gb 50 bucks at compusa, look around. Newegg has a GIGer for about 55.

That’s the price of a psp game and I can hold about 100 mp3s, 4 eps of lost in hi-quality, and 200 photos, plus all my homebrew.

As someone who isn’t married (or planning on getting married anytime soon), still living with mom dukes, minimal bills and a new full time job….buying both a PSP and DS isn’t worth it.

They’re both excellent systems, but I don’t play either one of them all that often. I will say that if I had a 1 GB memory stick for my PSP, I’d be doing alot of cool things with it (i.e. watching Lost). DS has great games, so unless you wanna cough up an extra 100 bucks for a new memory stick, then go with the DS. Good games. Cheaper. Most games that are coming out are gonna be Wi-fi.

BTW, DS lite looks l337. Teh l337 even.

I will never get DS. Two handhelds is overkill, even for a digerati like me.

Dude, I own a pda, a psp, a hooked up celly. If i got a DS, God would kill me for digital gluttony. There are starving people in india, bro!

Oh, and Im the kind of guy that wants the portable powerful console. Since I spend alot of time away from my xbox, my handheld is a fitting replacement, and I watch LOST on it. WW

If i got another handheld it would be a gameboy micro.

The tax return was totally that good, but I’d feel bad picking up both at once. I’ll check out both and see what’s up. Spammy, you ever gonna get DS?

Get a psp if you want a console in your hand. In other words, if you want x-men legends or burnout that looks and feels just like the xbox version, PSP is the only way.

If you want innovative games for much cheaper, get DS.

Get both if that refund was REAL good.

Get a gizmondo if you’re mentally retarded.

hehe.
