post your preferences

fav genres

battery life and overall portability concern

 

i have both psp and ds lite

psp is best for homebrew, ds lite is better for portable gaming in general

I don't think System Wars is the best place for suggestions, but I would say it just depends on what kind of game you like. i prefer the DS games (I have a DS and PSP) and I just get the PSP games on my PS2, because the ones that interest me most are already on the PS2. The DS has such a variety of original and fun titles IMO.

I use my psp mostly for surfing the internet and roms, thats it.

DS I use for gamming in general.

But thats just me, but if you want instant gamming then you should get a DS.

If you want games that have loading times (Dynasty Warriors has some of the most horrible loading times I've ever been through.) Yet A LOT of multimedia.  Then get a psp.

Actually just forget I posted this, this is your decision. It's hard to decide for you since I've had some good times with both systems.

One thing to consider is that console style games don't always work on handhelds. I've always found myself playing different sorts of games on handhelds.

If you like RPG, strategy, and puzzle games, go with the DS

If you like action and sports games, go with the PSP

 

although the DS has the best library in my opinion

the PSP is a better all around media player, plus it has a web browser

 

up to you

i got the psp for musis, movies and a little bit of gaming. I'm not big on handhelds though so if you are serious about gaming on a handheld go with the DS.
