I have a DS and it's much better, in my opinion.
Yeah, I heard the game quality is better for the DS. Luckily, I only plan on using it during road trips (not to mention I alread use my iPod for a good 3/4 of road trips to begin with) so it's not like I need a large selection of quality games to play. That, and I don't feel like investing too much in a handheld console. There are a couple of other games for it that I heard were good too and I'll probably buy them as well. And GTA: Chinatown Wars is awesome

The DS is definitely better. I have one myself and game quality aside, it's (cheaper and) overall a lot more fun. Some really unique, quality games on it like Scribblenauts, Bowser's Inside Story, Phantom Hourglass, The World Ends With You, etc.

The games are nice, but the quality isn't that good on the DS. I have to admit.
On PSP, the quality on such a small screen is admirable.

Where the DS shines is not in the graphically rich games, but the games that use a simple art style yet manage to be great in other ways. Substance, not style.

Isn't that the same Wii argument that you argue against so often?

Yeah but I understand what he means.
And Wii should have better graphics.
Nuff said.

Not exactly. See, I like the Wii a lot. I think Galaxy is better than any game I've played on the other consoles. The problem with the Wii is that there's not enough games like Galaxy on the console, and thanks to the lack of third-party support (largely due to the less powerful hardware) (and cept for shovelware), it's almost solely up to Nintendo to provide Wii gamers with quality experiences. Though I will admit, Muramasa looks like an amazing third party title, and I have wanted it for some time now.

Fact: The support for the DS > the support for the Wii

Wii is a novelty at best, the only time I ever have fun with it is if friend are there. Boring to play by yourself imo and I'm not really into the Zeldas and Marios.

I try to look at the Wii as a different kind of console for a different kind of player.

What? Liar!



Actually I've never played Galaxy, I just wonder how BioShock can be topped.
