DS Q1 09 software better than all PSP 2008 software

set to be released for the Nintendo DS in Q1 are the following games

Avalon Code (RPG), Black Sigil (RPG), Pokemon Platnium (RPG), Suikoden Tierkreis (RPG), Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars (ign PLAYSTATION writer said this was his favortie game he played at this years comic con, the PLAYSTATION guy), Puzzle Quest: Galactrix, Moon (FPS), C.OR.E. (FPS), Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride (RPG), Blue Dragon Plus (RPG), Roogoo (puzzle), Broken Sword (Adventure), Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time (Action RPG), Peggle: Dual Shot, Dark Spire (RPG), Infinite Space (RPG), Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon (SRPG), Valkyrie Profile (RPG), Big Bang Mini (shooter AAA)

seriously, i know GOW:COO, patapon, Crisis core, and what star ocean were cool, but PSP only had like 18 7 or higher rated games in 2008

i made a bet, that DS software in 2009 would have twice as many 7 or higher rated games ( A, AA, AAA) than all of PSP software in 2009

looks like i'm heading in the right direction, and Mario and Luigi 3, Dragon Quest IX, Scribblenauts, Miles Edgeworth, Professor Layton 2, Dragon Quest VI, aren't even out yet

also, the latest issue of EDGE patapon 2 got a 5 out of 10, and loco roco 2 got a 6 out of 10. sucks, but i'll probably still borrow my buddys psp to play loco roco 2 on his anyway, the first one was good

oh you got me with your ONE final fantasy game that MAY OR MAY NOT come out in NA in 2009, i suppose for some reason Dissdia won't get the same negative NA press Castlevania Judgement got? coz as far as i'm aware they're both fighting games except one's fanboys actually APPROVE of the franchises taking risks

and you say Phantasy Star Portable from SEGA? wow how about Phantasy Star Zero, and Shining Force Feather from SEGA. Win for DS

you say Tales of Radiant Mythology 2 for PSP? how about Tales of the heart ( i think its heart) for the DS?

and agito may or may not make it out in 2009, does it even have a japanese date or is it out? because you know square, the game will come out in japan and everywhere else 6-8 months later so we may not see some of those "killer" psp exclusives from square into well after dragon quest 9 AND 10 are released. (ok 10 is pushing it but you get my point)

so, NO 3 games don't beat out that list, its not like any of those will be AAAA anyway (not likely DS will have AAAA either, i'd say scribblenauts has a slim, punchers chance though not likely however)

Nice list of unreleased titles. I could list quite a few PSP ones too.HoldThePhone

Nice list of unreleased titles. I could list quite a few PSP ones too.HoldThePhone

those are all titles out already or coming out before March 31st sir, thats why i said Q1 2009.

you'd list what, Tales Radiant 2, Agito, Patapon 2 (5/10 EDGE btw), Loco Roco 2, Dissdia, phantasy star

with the exception of dissdia, patapon, DS list can heavily compete with that

Kingdom Hearts: BBS-358/2 Days, Resistance-C.O.R.E., and Moon

Tales Radiant Mythology 2-Tales of the Heart,

oh wow, Dissdia and agito, aw darnit square enix why'd you have to give me Final Fantasy Echoes of Time, Dragon Quest 5, Dragon Quest 6, Dragon Quest 9 all in 2009 instead??? oh pooh. also, isn't square publishing Valkyrie Profile for the DS? seems like we know which handheld sqaure loves more.

so, the only unreleased titles i listed, which were clearly separated from the list of titles planned to be shipped to NA retailers by march 31st were only DQ9, DQ6, Mario and Luigi 3, Scribblenauts, and,... another

so please don't mistake that for a list of unreleased titles, coz though yes some aren't released yet the fact that they are coming before March 31st has alot of our wallets cowering in fear

At least the PSP has a great 2009 lineup. It isn't 2008 anymore. I play the DS more then PSP but imo the PSP has better games, but not enough. Which is why I find myself enjoying the DS lots more. They may not be better, but they have a steady flow of decent games. Resistance, Dissida, Kingdom Hearts, Disaster Report 3, Parasite Eve, and Phantasy Star have me sold alreadySpikeVashGene

out of what you said, KH will make it out to NA in 2009 i imagine, dissdia we have no clue it might or might not, Disaster Report 3, if i'm not mistaken were any of those released in NA?, eve is 2010, and Phantasy Star i believe should be out this year too

so, while i hope you have fun, i wouldn't call anything of the PSP's future and recent line-up steady, considering got 2 star oceans as the big releases from May 2008 to now. both of which met lukewarm reviews

PSP does have a nice catalogue though, i imagine you're enjoying some of those titles as well. i enjoyed combat ops while i had mine, though the online community was scarce often.

Thanks for your great OPINION.

But Seriously IMO, the DS STILL does not appeal to me.

Im much more looking forward to the fewer, but more appealing PSP lineup this year.

why do people still defend the PSP? The DS has one of the greatest lineup EVER, i doubt anything has had as many AAA's as it in the 3d eraMr_Apple_Soup

damn that was a terrible call on my part eh? thought it had more...still, it isnt like there's only ten good games on it

still, it isnt like there's only ten good games on it

Mr_Apple_Soup

considering the 59 AAs, many/most of which are exclusive, I'd tend to think not.

[QUOTE="Cherokee_Jack"][QUOTE="Ragnarok1051"] It doesn't even have 10 AAAs I don't think, and I prefer the PSP better so what are you talking about?Mr_Apple_Soup

While realistic racing games and action/adventure probably go to the PSP, im surprised that you like the PSP's rpg's over the DS's, considering the DS has an incredible selection of rpg's

geez, a little harsh man. you even called me a jerk in your previous post! i'm just doing the system wars thing, presenting a debateable question (whether software in Q1 for the DS is better than all of PSP software in 2008, and i gave only legitmate examples of titles either already released or going to be released by March 31st to support my arguement.

you, and others have come back with some solid looking PSP titles, that may or may not even be coming out in 2009, but look like a lot of fun.

didn't you read i want to play loco roco 2, and when i had a psp i enjoyed playing Syphon Filter: Combat Ops online, i once even played in a CTF match where one team was cheerleaders, the other football players, the flag was a,... i'd rather not say it was gross. mind you this was all due to wonderful chatter (or texting) in the lobby and the map maker

i'm just doing the system wars thing bro

thats nice dissdia has a confirmed summer 09 release too, i wasn't aware. so can you give me a link to it or maybe a retailers site with it?

Mario & Luigi RPG 3 received 35/40 in last week's issue of Famitsu. It received the same score as Mario & Luigi RPG 2.

really? dominating the charts in japan? ok, i suppose the software has for a few weeks, but software comes and goes, and as it is now the DSi is very much outselling the PSP, picking up where the DS lite left off in japan, so i really don't see your point unless you're just saying good first few weeks tales of radiant mythology 2! which in that case, good for them.

Ninitendo aims their games to a family audience while sony makes games atleast around E-10 to M.1sea5

awesome, got a link? i'd like to hear there likes and dislikes. good to see alpha dream still got it

thats what like a 8.5 or 9?

it looks awesome, funny, and the new two screen battles with bowser on top and mario and luigi on bottom looks weird, but fresh plus its a very pretty 2d game

sorry bro

when someone makes a counter point i've got to bring a good arguement, and i will. thanks for the link

saying "this game owns another console's entire line up" of course i will bring a solid arguement with facts and such against it, this is SW afterall

but no hard feelings

so are you getting loco roco 2? i'd love to read some user reviews.

btw, i had to rewrite this post, as you're link messed up the quote, and glitchspot erased all my original post, darnit

and sorry if i seem biased, but you enjoy you're PSP right? you just defended it well, wouldn't you seem biased to the average post reader? perhaps. doesn't mean you are though. of course you should proudly stand by whatever you get the most satisfaction out of, just as i do you should too.

and also, the bet i mentioned, thats another reason why i'm making these threads, i'm trying to win it i made it during xmas on here

so, you getting roco 2?

i bought a PSP fairly recently and still have quite a few games to play through before I start buying the newer titles like LocoRoco 2, but yes I plan on getting it, since it wil be priced at $20.

Agreed.

whats a DSi1sea5

its the next generation DS, it boasts exclusive downloadable games, a 3MP camera on the outside, a .3mp camera on the inside, bigger screens, better wifi (only to be used in DSi only games though), better audio, 4 times the system RAM of the DS lite, and twice the speed CPU

its also a music player and has a web browser and animation and music editing software, albeit limited.

its the DS interactive, coz i suppose the animation and mini-game creator in the new DSi only wario ware could only be done on the DSi and not DS

also, it has a SDHC card slot, which takes up to 32GB cards and has 256mb of flash memory
