Is DS good for a 24 year old Guy?

I'm 24 years old and i want to buy a handheld gaming console.Over the entire net i found that people are praising DS a lot more than PSP.

Now I'm completely confused between the two.

I have done every little bit of comparison betwwen the 2 through online sources.

Now i wish to decide it based on someone's personal experience.

Please Help.

DS gets praise for good reason. Having the largest library, and variety of games as well as the more critically acclaimed library to boot. PSP's library is more pitiful than the Wii's with less AAA, AA, and A titles :/

No. Sadly the DS just isn't any fun if you're a 24 year old guy. You'll have to wait until you turn 25 or change sex.

I am 28 and i LOVE my DS. Definatly buy one bud!

Soo many good rpgs on the DS

no, its not get a psp

Im 20 years old and have a DS but never used it that much, the last time i used it was to play ( the world ends with you) but i like psp more and use it more everyday.. i say ya its worth it if u like RPG's and besides Kingdom hearts is coming to it soon, so age dosent matter really in gaming.. i personally say go for psp u will like it

Depends on which kind of gamer are you:

Hardcore gamer: DS (If you like to invest lot of time playing with RPGs or Pokemon)

Casual gamer: PSP (Lots of games with nice graphics that would entertain you if you play from time to time)

Very casual gamer: iPhone/iPod (If you just like to have something to play for a couple of mins on the bus or at work, lots of nice other features nonrelated to gaming)

Yes, if you wear training pull-ups, love your mom a lot, and you wear a onesie to bed get a DS. You don't HAVE to still wet your bed, but it's definitely a plus as it'd definitely help you enjoy the DS a lot more.

Hardcore games aren't precisely games with blood or guns, but the games that you need several hours to understand and play.

Woot. Good news then. Wii becomes a hardcore system when Monster Hunter Tri comes out!!!!

psp is sexy its pretty much a mini ps2 in your pocket that you can surf the web on anywhere you are

I love it. The variety and quality of games is great.

True fact, When it comes out I plan to retire it from the closet, and probably not play my other consoles for a long time

I saw that advertisement. Mario Kart is still an incredibly popular game for the DS. I think it's the best seller, so why not push more units? It's easily the best Mario Kart ever made.

And if I exclude every bit of shovelware on the DS I still have a library that's more critically acclaimed, larger in size, and with more variety.

I'm just hoping it hits off in the states. It's one game I've always wanted to try, but most of my friends hate Playstation, so I'm the only one with a PSP :( They've all got Wii's though, but I doubt they'd want to play it then anyways.

It was the reason I bought my ps3, it was originally announced for the ps3, then they said it was coming on the wii instead so I was like damnit, and bought a wii

The DS has more variety in its library and is incredibly fun. I find the PSP too clunky and a majority of its good games feel like PS2 ports, or games that should have been on a console. Also the DS has many RPGs that last a long time, I suggest the world ends with you.

The DS is loved for a reason but I don't see what age has to do with it.

i'm turning 24 in august, i love my ds

definitely an excellent library for anyone to be found
