If it weren't 200 killers but only like... fifty, I'd buy it. For sure. I need replacement of my MP3 when I'm on tour, really.

Twenty is a good price, but I've read of it in my favo Ninty-mag, and they say it takes AGES to load it on the cartridge, it has a small safe-ammount and it plays movies and sounds in a bad quality. Is that right? (I guess the last two arguments are true. Cartrige: Small. GBA-sound-quality in General: Bad.)

Considering their handheld costs more then $200, yeah they should worry.  And don't say that the PSP can play movies right off the bat, you either have to buy the twenty dollar movie or buy a 1GB stick for a hundred bucks.

A twenty dollar movie that you can only watch on the PSP. I think people will be happier with the DS option, more memory space, easier to stick a movie on it, lower total cost. Yay.

a DS + that HDD would cost $350. For that price, you might as well just buy yourself a PSP and a big memory card :/

It depends what kinda games you want then, isn't it...

Also, you'd get more stuck on the HDD than the memory stick.

Well, I mean, the sytems do actualy have a differense this time...

Like some people ACTUALY like being "interactive" with their games, via the touch screen + the mic. That's just one reason to buy the DS with a game that is made by a good company and uses those things and the Nintendo WiFi, plus a Hard Drive which stores your songs and videos and such, you've got yourself a pretty sweet deal...

So it's not just the games you like, it would be other things too...or if you are a Nintendo fanboy.

Yep.

Oh, and isn't it easier to get the DS online? Or should be, once Opera DS comes out. I mean, to get the PSP to browse the net isn't too easy, and it ain't too user friendly once you're on.

Another pro for the DS, I guess.
