As the title implies, I'm looking for RPGs (or games that will easily last a long time). I was going to pick up either a PSP or a Nintendo DS. Which is more RPG-oriented?
PSP for bigger titles. (Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep, or Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core)
DS for just plenty of smaller but still fun titles. (Fire Emblem DS, Final Fantasy Tactics Advanced 2, Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days(358 over 2), Dragon Quest IX, or Tales of Innocence) That and the countless remakes for Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy being spewed forth from SE. :P
Well I was hoping to stock up on some RPGs that will last me a while. When I thought of the DS, titles that popped up were Final Fantasy III, Final fantasy IV and LoZ: Phantom Hourglass.
But wait 'a minute, I've seen older games taken to the PSP, and I don't understand it. For instance, I just youtubed "Final Fantasy VII PSP" and saw somebody playing Final Fantasy VII on the PSP. But clearly they didn't get that in the stores. How is that done, and is it easy to do? Thanks :)

what you're asking for is illegal
Not if I have the acutal game it isn't. Emulators aren't illegal if you own the cartridge / etc. I have a Playstation 2 and Final Fantasy VII...I just thought it'd be sweet to play FF7 on the road. But I didn't know what he was doing was illegal, thanks for letting me know.
IMO neither system is all that great for RPG's. The potential is there for the future on DS but right now not so much. Phantom Hourglass is definitely not an RPG, though it is a great handheld Zelda game. PSP has more traditional RPG's but they're mostly derivative and forgettable fluff or PS1 remakes. I'd say Final Fantasy Tactics is the best of the lot for PSP.
As far as FFVII on PSP, that's probably done through a cracked machine and loading the content onto a memory stick. It's not the easiest thing in the world to do and requires quite a large memory stick, which can get expensive.
