    I'm Going to get one. It really depends if your into Nintendo gaming, If you like 3rd party games and more killing and violent set type games then just wait for the psp. I plane on getting both but I am a big Nintendo fan myself.

    The DS is so much better. You can give it voice commands and it has a touch screen.

    i'm not a handheld kind of guy, i like big consoles with lost of power. but i went into my local game store the other day, and saw the DS, and i was pleasantly impressed, so i believe i may be getting one.

    I hear that the psp will have amazing graphics and that sony's going to make a new final fantasy game for it, but the console is going to be very expensive, so i would wait until it comes out to see if u can afford both systems. The final fantasy may not come out on any other system, so i would take that into account too (tho u can always get an emulator).

    Ive played the DS at walmart once... the graphics are nothing but amazing! i think i played some metroid game... but the thing about it is with FPS they have dual analog... its weird because it was always in-versed view... hard to adjust. but i haven't heard much about the PSP... but the DS has so many extras added onto it i would get it.

    Ds i bought for $249.74 (~129.81 GBP) thats

    1
    Nintendo DS 110V [with $20 Coupon] (For Nintendo DS / Japanese)
    $169.90 (~88.31 GBP)


    1
    USB Recharger Cable (For Nintendo DS, Gameboy Advance SP?)
    $4.95 (~2.57 GBP)


    1
    Multivolt AC Adapter [UK] (For Nintendo DS, Gameboy Advance SP?)
    $4.99 (~2.59 GBP)

    1
    Super Mario 64 DS (For Nintendo DS / US)
    $39.90 (~20.74 GBP)

    This is a good deal so if you buy it retail your looking at a few dollars more...

    The Psp is currently totally sold out in Japan where its avaiable, Ds is totally sold out everywhere but Japan(online anyway, since its not out here in UK until march)

    A good friend of mine bought a PSP for ?370 this is roughly $700? maybe $710... something around there, which is more than double a ds. Obviously he bought it online along time before it comes out over here but still, its a lot of money to be paying.

    when i went to buy a DS they were sold out at most stores and had only 3 left at best buy. DS has some features that make you feel like you are playing with your own little laptop rather than a "gameboy". It has internal rechargable batteries, it comes with an AC adapter, and the graphics can be amazing. It is definitely a very amusing and interesting item, and for half the price of the PSP, the DS wins in my opinion.

    you should totally get a ds, it is totally awsome. i bought one and it is the best designed handheld gaming system ever. the dual screens are used perfectly together. you should get mario 64 ds along with it
