I can't decide. (PSP or DS Lite)

Re: I can't decide. (PSP or DS Lite)

Metroid Prime Hunters isn't all that worthwhile when you consider all of the other games that are better than it. It's really overrated IMO. Single player is really short, and when you compare multiplayer to other FPS games out there, it could use a LOT of work.

But what are the other FPS for handhelds out on the market?
I don't have the game so i can't say it's really good or anything
but I'veplayed it a little and it seems pretty good for a handheld
first-person shooter.

Good thing you left off the Wii.

I mean that would just make the decision process far too difficult.

PS this thread is about the handhelds, not the consoles.

PPS he's probably already got the DSLite.

It's in the post. I can't wait. The next few days are going to be really slow.

I've wanted to try Metroid out. It wasn't exactly top of the list but it was in deal with Sonic Rush. I do want Sonic Rush as I am a Sonic fan of old and new, preferably old 2D platformer style. So the bundle was a good choice I think.

I have almost all of the really popular DS titles including Rush.

I'd have to say the ones I got the most play time and fun out were Mario Kart DS, New Super Mario Bros and Animal Crossing.

Mario Kart is just really really well made and the online is excellent. Tons of replayability aswell.

NSMB is too fun and there is a lot there, but I beat the game completely in a few days. The multiplayer minigames with 3 other people is the best part about this though.

Animal Crossing wins simply because it's the only game that has no end. Every day when I play it there is something new happening.

Sonic Rush is really fun but once you beat it, there isn't really anything left. I would recommend renting this and whoring the hell out of it until you beat it. Then again, you can get it cheap and the multiplayer is fun.

Metroid kinda pissed me off. The single player is really bad. You spend the whole game going to the same levels and fighting the same enemies over and over. If you like FPSs then you'll love this online however. The voice chat is just amazingly cool.

Wario ware is fun until you beat it.

Lol. Its in the post. Thanks anyway though.

And a recommendation for a game to get...Lost Magic...So much fun...

I do want to try that game. I read you draw symbols and stuff to do magic. Sounds awesome.

Re: I can't decide. (PSP or DS Lite)

I found a japanese copy of Tenchu DS at the Fry's that I go to. Good price for some of their imported DS games. The thing is that since Tenchu DS is a japanese online DS game, you can only play against other japanese copies of the game. I might wait until the US version of the game comes out.

Ose! Tatakae! Ouendan! is also a good pick, but since they're changing the story (along with the names, characters, events, and music) for a US release, you're going to have to have it out yourself with that one. If you like Asain Kung Fu Generation, L'Arc~En~Ciel, and other music like that then get the japanese version (Ose! Tatakae! Ouendan!). If you don't then get the US version (Elite Beat Agents).

That sounds awesome. So the DSLite wont have problems playing a Japanese game?

Re: I can't decide. (PSP or DS Lite)

Yup, the DS is universal.

Re: I can't decide. (PSP or DS Lite)

Nope, no problems at all. I love my DS because of that.

One note SethSquall, if you have a japanese game card (let's say the new Tenchu game for example) and your friend wants to play you online but he/she has a US game card, you will not be able to connect to your friend for that game. Both you and your friend MUST have the same version of that game card in order to play each other (wi-fi or local multi-card).

Now, if you have a japanese game card that allows multiplayer with one game card, then you have nothing to worry about. Everyone can easily download and play the game from their DS.

^ This is pretty cool I might get one. (the price I found at Fry's was $125)
It also runs homebrewed games too.

Re: I can't decide. (PSP or DS Lite)

Which comes in handy as Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney keeps selling out everywhere.

So order your Japanese version, which has an English option on it.

One word: DS.

Re: I can't decide. (PSP or DS Lite)

Anyone got a reliable site which sells Japanese games and are willing to ship to the UK?

That looks awesome. It also looks like getting that would give the DS everything that PSP brags about (except the games). Even then you would only be spending a little more than what a PSP with one game is worth. What do you guys make of this gadget? Worth it? Im not to fused about movies and music on the go right now. It would be cool to have though. The first bad thing that comes to my mind about this product though is I doubt the DS will have enough battery power to fulfil my gaming needs as well as movies and music on the go. You know what I mean?

Ps. The DSLite is due tomorrow. Don't fail me now British Postal Service.

Re: I can't decide. (PSP or DS Lite)

12+ hours is enough for me (the battery time may vary). I'll see if I can get one or just ask a friend of mine to led it to me for some product reviewing (I do stuff like this all the time)
