Side by Side comparison of Stats:
Names:
Psp (Play station portable)
Nintendo DS (Dual Screens)
Display:
Single wide aspect screen (16:9)
Dual wide screens (one with touchpad built in)
Connectivity:
Wireless lan capability ( same as a computers high speed network) Wireless lan capability ( same as a computers high speed network) Nintendo custmers will be able to play any game that someone on thier network space is playing with or without the actual game module
Memory systems:
60mm secured disks (up to 1.8gig) usb port memory stick port
new smaller cartridge type allows for up to 1.5+gig connection for older cartridges hardware expansion capability in secondary memory port
controls:
basically this uses a ps2 type controller,
all the typical GBA buttons plus two new A,B, buttons and a touch pad/stylus
Extra info:
The PSP will sport mp3, and dvd functions heck I wouldn't be suprised if I found a cell phone and surround sound in this thing it is truly an all in 1 unit to be proud of!
The DS also has its advantages like being much les expensive, and it toats a microphone port, not to mention it's backwards compatible with all gameboy games ever made, and that same backwards compatablity can be used for all sorts of peripheral hardware in the future!

Taito~293 The PSP will sport mp3, and dvd functions heck I wouldn't be suprised if I found a cell phone and surround sound in this thing it is truly an all in 1 unit to be proud of! Funny you should mention that. sweatdrop When the PSP was first heard of, there was supposedly going to be cellphone capabilities. . . but I think they might've scrapped that idea. As for stereo sound, it'll be using a Sony-made. .. thing (dammit, I'm really bad with words today), so it has 7.1 stereo sound.
Oh, and if you want to add peripherals, it can have a really nifty looking keyboard, a camera and it also has a GPS mod. 3nodding Honestly though, the peripherals don't make the system. So yeah.
Obviously I'm a PSP kind of girl. ^.^ The DS is a swanky idea, to be sure, but the PSP is more appealing to me. 3nodding

I always go with Nintendo first. I consider them the gaming gods....
>.>;;;; *is a fangirl*
But, if I had the spare cash and the Psp dropped in price and had some kick butt games, then I would look into buying one. 3nodding

PSP hands down. As soon as it comes out, I'll also get Final Fantasty: Advent Children and watch it wherever the hell I want. You can't get enough Sephiroth, Kadaj, Yazoo, and Loz. *is too obsessed for her own good*

Gartain The DS calls my name... though if the PsP drastically falls in price... then i'll be all over that one too they're both very sexy systems but i wanna play metroid xd *laughs* Hmm. . . how much is the GBA: SP in America? (I keep forgetting this whole price difference. *kicks the Canadian dollar* Get moving! ). Here they're $139.99 or so.
Hmm. . . if the Canadian dollar stays where it is now, when the PSP comes out it'll probably be in the high 300s. sweatdrop Well, I guess I won't ask for much for x-mas. xd
Twilight: whee They may be insane, but those boys sure are neat.

The people at the gamestop told me that the people at nintendo are trying to kill the PSP... so when it comes out whatever the price is... the DS will be half of it.
The SP down here is about 100, at least that's what i've paid for it (i have 2) high 300s? *shudder* My DS is already reserved at gamestop... so i'm paying for it as if it were on layaway... here's hoping i dont have to pay more then 20 when it comes out xd
