Who here loves the DS over all other game systems? (portable, durr...)

I hope you know that it can play NES Roms, movies, music, pics, and e-books! (www.movieadvance.com) The media player's for GBA, but it has good updates for DS.

DS rules :!:

In all honesty, I think the DS is cool and all but....PSP>DS. That's a lot coming from a Nintendo fan boy here.

i've been a Nintendo man right up until the GCN, but there's no way i'm getting a DS with the PSP looking as awesome as it is with it's multi-purpose gadgetedness. Games look cool too.

I say the DS=PSP. I'm a massive Nintendo fan. And I dunno if anyone knows of this but, they are coming out with a DDR for the GCN rofl. Anyways, once Christmas rolls around, or when band is over with(so I can get a frickin' job) I'm going to get a DS and possibly a ps2(they have kick ass RPGs, the best form of video game)So yea. PSP is cool and all, but I say it's a little over rated. Now, once Advent Children comes out....lol it'll be a different story =D.

You're talking about DDR Mario Mix, and yeah, i've heard of it and looking forward to it. I don't have a PS2 or Xbox, so i've never owned any ddr games. Actually, i've only played DDR a couple of times before at the local arcade, so i'm really looking forward to it, what with getting into Stepmania recently and all.

I like the DS. They aren't as many spinoff games for the DS this year, there're a lot of unique games coming, as well, such as Phoenix Wright: Ace Attourney, and Trauma Center: Under the Knife. Plus, they're also going to have Wi-Fi hotspots this year!

For me, the DS>PSP for two reasons: I play my friends' PSP quite often, and the amount of dead pixels in the screen irks the hell outta me. I hate dead pixels, there are only two on my SP, and even that bugs me. The other reason DS>PSP is because of the better choice of games since release. Really, there are only two or three games on the PSP that I find worth playing; everything else just...doesn't interest me. However...the PSP>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>DS at the release of Advent Children, which I have been waiting waaay too long to get. There better be some damn good action in it.

PSP totally roxeses right now, but wait until all the GOOD GAMES come out!
Besideses, why are 2 small low-def screens better than 1 large-for-a-handheld HD screen?

Is it wrong to have a lack of arrogance?
(hint hint-eses ahter everything is part of an inside joke. don't get fired up)
yeah, 1 screen thats good beats 2 screens that suxeses! Thats my humble...well...sorta humble opinion!

What, is it some kind of strategically made LOTR Gollum joke? Cause if it is, that's an inside joke between you and the REST OF THE WORLD.

Dude, stop verbally attacking me and go back to your richie rich wannabetoughboy HQ. I am sick of your stupid remarks on every little thing I say. If you're so insecure that you have to go knitpicking everyhting I say, you don't need to be in the "critical thinking" forum, you need to be in the "critical flaming" forum. Its an inside joke between me and someone you've never met, so get over yourself and leave me alone.

This message is for defense only. Don't try to get me banned.

MalReynolds

Woah, you're responding in the wrong place at the wrong time to a post I made about suicide, which was legitimate. You're just dumb.

Richie Rich Wannabetoughboy HQ? Right. That's exactly where I live. But, it's least an HQ that I have to pay a monthly rent for... I mean, it feels pretty good to be holed up in this HQ instead of staying at home with my parents... You'll realize what I'm taking about after your balls drop. You'll start to notice girls, your body will begin to change and you'll have strong urges... towards goats.

Is your friend here? Is he responding to your posts, going "Oh, lol, that's an inside joke that is so clever of you to have made"? Cause I don't see that. I see you repeat the inside joke over and over. There's no satisfaction in that that I can see.

Stop verbally attacking you? What, you want to get physical now? I doubt it. I'm not the type of person that hits people. That's cowardly. Breaking people down with words is more my game. Takes skill. No lucky shots when you're deflating an ego.

I'm not trying to get you bannedseses... Just trying to get you to stop being an idiot.

Mal

PS: I know for sure I've never met Gollum... He's not real.
PPS: If you can take anything away from anything I've posted to you, than years from now, you'll look back and thank me. If you can't take anything away from anything I've posted to you, then you'll probably quit the forums.

hellooo! Mal! Did it ever occur to you maybe You're talking to someonewho doesn't wanna play bitch-smack in the forums? Leave me alone! Inferiority Complex is a trait which you need to control. I don't want to hear you come back and try again to make me explode, or try to use me to up your public image, and I am seriously sick of you repeatedly coming at me with the focus of cutting me down. I asked you once, I asked you twice, Now I am telling you;
Leave me the **** alone, okay?

MalReynolds
August 4th, 2005, 04:24 PM
Dude, chill. I realize you don't wanna "play" "smack talk" in the "forums", but the majority of your posts are downright retarded. You're not nitro, and I know you won't explode. But you have a problem taking harsh criticisms. My public image is at it's peak without you as a stepping stone. Inferiority complex? No. I'm allowed to think someone is retarded over the internet without being phsycologically analyzed. I think I addressed all the points... but you're still not getting the picture.

Stop acting retarded on the forums. If you need lessons or something on how to post intelligently, especially in CT, feel free to contact me. Otherwise, you need to bum around the rest of the forums before trying to wrack your brain and think critically.

Think before you post. That is the moral of this story. Posting random nonsense, trying to be funny... It's cheeky, but not funny. It's annoying, not endearing. Just try to put a little more thought into anything you say on here and people (I know it's not just me) will lighten up a bit.

Mal

PS: This is done. If you have anything else to say to me, say it over a PM.

I'm the type that hits people. Then I break them down with words. Mal's right though, Choco, you're a dumbass. Go back to the chat.

[quote="vashthestampede0987I'm the type that hits people. Then I break them down with words. Mal's right though, Choco, you're a dumbass. Go back to the chat.[/quote]

First of all, I don't get how in THIS forum, you conclude that I am a dumbass. You're a real dumbass to tell my how smart I am in your comparison. I am no lower than you, and I really don't haul ass to say "I'm smarter than the rest of you." You are narsissistic, and you don't care to face it. Get over yourself, because if YOU don't break your pride, HE will.

Past that, I'm banned from chat. get used to this.

First, congrats on 100 posts, Choco. Second, I said this was over. Put it back on track, PM the hell out of me or Vash or anyone else you want, just keep it off of this thread. If you want, make a public denouncement thread of me or Vash or whoever else you want in the Garbage Bin, if it will make you feel better... Just bring this topic back to the DS or else it probably will be locked.

I'm gonna agree with you. My roomate has a PSP and it kicks ass. The graphics are incredible for a handheld system, and Lumines is just addicting.

I perfer DS for a couple of reasons:

1) Longer battery life

2) Virtually no load times

3) the games are something new. The only games that I think are good are Wipeout and GTA: LCS, and that ones not out yet. I think the games on DS are more fun. Especially Nanostray, man that game kicks ass.

Virtually the DS and the PSP are equal because of this reason:

1.The PSP is technically the better faster Handheld but the DS is the better overall system.

See? Flame done.

And Mal scores again!

But seriously, the DS and PSP have the same screen area, it's just that I think the DS makes better use of it in GAMING. For watching videos (rather expensive ones...) get a psp, the screen is nice and it's funny to have a bunch of people huddled around one trying to watch house of flying daggers and eatin stuff. But for pure gaming the DS wins- better battery life, durability, and more original. My friends and I brought our DSes and the MP:hunters demo to a halo lan party and everyone wanted to play em. Its just a breath of fresh air when everything else is the same. And nothing beats poking your enemies to death!

Basically if you have the money to spend and have not yet bought an mp3 player and want to watch moveis on the go and occasionally play games then a psp is for you. If you just want an awesome portable gaming device or just something different then get a DS.

Bit of a sidenote here: If you get a DS or are thinking of getting one, import the game "Jam with the band" it also might be called Daigasso:Band brothers at some sites. It's an awesome music game kinda like beatmania except you actually play the music notes with the DS instead of just hitting buttons with the beat. And you can write your own songs! This is the game that's always in my DS and always turns heads. There's also an expansion pack for this game coming out soon in the form of a gba cartridge to add some more songs and stuff.

I bought a DS over the summer (my SP broke), and in all honesty, I have used it 95% of the time to play my GBA games (Fire Emblem:SS rocks). The rest of the time, I play WarioWare: Touched! , my only DS game.

I'm not going to buy neither the DS or the PSP, because people keep saying bad stuff about the other one :/ Need to find by GBA:SP anyway.
