I have been getting into and playing lots of rpgs (role playing games) on my nintendo ds. I go to my psp and pick up and play a rpg and it doesnt amuse me as much as the ds rpgs do. Do you guys agree that the ds is better with rpgs?

No, theyre about the same in my opinion, this is coming from a hardcore JRPG player.

I would say the PSP has a slight edge over the DS, but it's very close.

Surprised to see how many people are saying PSP since there's so many garbage rpgs on the system, but then again people could be counting games that never came to US. Oh if we are counting PS1 games since they are playable then PSP.

If we're counting backwards compatability then Im pretty sure the DS would beat the PSP.

The DS simply because of Dragon Quest, Final Fantasy, Pokemon, Chrno Trigger, The World Ends With You, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor, Fire Emblem, Golden Sun Dark Dawn... actually, you know what? I think you get the point.

The first 3 legend of heroes games, Mimana Iyar, Spectral Souls, Astonishia Story, Blade Dancer, Untold Legends, Tales of the World, I can go on.

The PSP has the bad and the good.

[QUOTE="Shirokishi_"] If we're counting backwards compatability then Im pretty sure the DS would beat the PSP.

I'm not exactly sure what to say, because GBA doesn't have any rpgs that come close to the best PS1 rpgs, besides FF6. SRPG wise eh, I'd just say it's a tie depending on what exactly you want out of SRPG games. Either way now that I think about it DS would most likely still be above PSP, because of the fact not too many PS1 ****cs are available on PSN yet.

Well, I figured you'd vote for PSP because of VC2 and VC3 being on it :P

Well of course if you decide to ignore the garbage rpgs on PSP you won't end up playing them, but there's plenty on the PSP that outweighs the DS garbage RPGs. I'm not saying the ones you named aren't good, I enjoy those a lot especially monster hunter since I put so many hours into each iteration.

Which is exactly why the GBA BC gives the DS the edge. The PSN titles arent quite there yet.

Did you even read past the first 5 words?:?I basically said PSP has more garbage rpgs than the DS does. I didn't deny that DS has garbage rpgs either, I just said PSP has way more. If I'm going to compare which has more RPG worth playing, it'd be DS without a doubt, I can see PSP passing up the DS very quickly though if the upcoming RPGs I'm looking forward to are good.

I did and you act like all the ds rpg's are the best or something, also in japan psp kills in the rpg department. Can't' i also say i think the ds has way more garbage on it then the psp? oh wait i will say it, the ds has way more garbabge rpg's on it then the psp, see it ain't that hard. Your spouting your opinion like its a fact.

:lol:

No, I don't think DS RPGs are the best lol, I don't even play my DS nowadays compared to PSP.

but then again people could be counting games that never came to US. Luxen90

You see that quote? That should give you a hint that I wasn't counting rpgs that never came to US.

You can say whatever you want really, because you're opinion doesn't really mean a thing and won't affect how I view RPGs on both handhelds.

And Sorry man, there's no way in hell that I'm going to have a dicussion with you about me spouting my opinion like it's a fact, if you cannot tell what's a fact and opinion, then I'm sorry, but whenever you read my posts you should just imagine "IMO" being right at the end of it.

I enjoyed more RPGs on the PSP than on the DS, so I'll give it to the PSP. And come on, it's getting Tactics Ogre next week.

I played a lot of the DS RPGs, but I usually end up not liking them, even the highly praised ones like TWEWY. However, the DS does have one of my favorite RPGs this gen: Devil Survivor.

It's hard. I personally give the nod to the PSP due to the PS1 RPG's on the PSN network.

Hate that Tactics Ogre and Radiant Historia are so close to each other, and it doesn't help that both games seem to have high replay value.

I will go with the PSP just for P3P and KHBBS alone. Both are great when it comes to RPGs through.

I hate that too...when games I'm looking forward to are like a week apart. March and the holiday season are usually the worst offenders. Last March was pretty bad: Final Fantasy XIII, Resonance of Fate, Yakuza 3, Infinite Space, and Strange Journey.

I'll probably buy Radiant Historia in the Summer.

I'll beat them some way.

I picked up all of those day one except Resonance of Fate. I didn't beat Strange Journey yet, because I was pretty disappointed(which I'm sure I've said a million times by now). Luckily next month doesn't seem that bad at all, I think I'm only getting Yakuza 4.

It's not really worth continuing SJ, imo. The dungeon designs get kind of lazy towards the end, and each alignment is too 'extreme'. It's not properly done like in Devil Survivor, where each side brought valid points. I forced myself on beating it. The battle system wasn't as addicting as the other games in the series.

Next month for me is Yakuza 4, The 3rd Birthday and Dissidia 12. Dissidia can wait though, and the 3rd Birthday is short.
