I know it's been done before, but there are newer games out now that could sway it...

I'm going to to buy one, but I really can't decide which...psp has the new metal gear solid game coming soon, but ds has the new zelda. And the psp can play mp3s and movies, but ds is 50 squid cheaper.

I've seen a really good bundle too for both, a tenner over the rrp gets you a new game. Medal of honour for psp, or mario kart for ds and lots more to choose from...

someone just tell me which one to buy!
 
dont know... just look at the games - check out some game reviews and decide which one you'd rather have to play the games.

edit: ds...

If you want portable PS2 games get a PSP. If you want fun and original games then get a DS. Loads of my mates have DS Lites and then get played on a lot. A couple also have PSPs and mostly they just gather dust. It's also possible to get the DS to play movies and MP3s.
 
The DS doesn't use SD cards but you can get cartridges that fits in slot 2 which takes the SD card and plays the MP3s. I believe theres an official Nintendo one and I know there are plenty of third party devices which will play MP3s and movies.

Try looking at something like the Datel Max Media player. Although this doesn't work too well you should start to find other devices which do the same thing but better.

Ive lost track of how many people i know personally or on forums who have psp's that were being used for the first few weeks and now are nothing but dust collectors. Specs mean nothing in the handheld world and ds proved that by raping psp.

Just had to look at christmas sales, psp's were sitting there unsold while ds was flying off the shelves at every single store that sold them.

lol, i see what every ones talking about with "original games *spelling* but id rather shoot stuff and race nice cars all day than tap a low rez animation with a plastic pencil

im not trying to flame you this is my opinion, my brother had one i played it for like 3 days straight to see if i wanted it over a psp but in the end i got a psp because its got that *thing* that makes me want to play it where the ds was just well, tapping a screen with a plastic pencil

oh and by the way, my brother sold his DS and got a 360

360 with a screen fore the win
 
PSP for me but tbh i hardly use it

it got a allot of use when i used trains and stuff allot though


the ps1 games are making me think about giving it a charge and having a play about again though

I know what you mean but I'd rather play a very addictive and playable game than one that just looked good.

I'm not flaming, it's just my opinion. ;)

At the end of the day I'd base my decision on the games line-up, see which you prefer. I dare say that whichever hand held you choose you'll be pleased with it, they're both decent machines.

/me raises hand.
