  I don't know why everyone is bashing the PSP. It is the only handheld to ever actually compete with Nintendo

    "WE'RE AWESOME BECAUSE WE'RE TRYING!" isn't a good reason.

      Well what is a good reason then. The only thing you can do is try. Stop being a fool.

  Well, yeah. It's always been relatively obvious that the PSP would never overtake the DS. No reason posting a list of simple reasons most people could figure out on their own.

  I have nothing wrong with the PSP, I own one and think it is so much better then the DS. The main reason I see why it is not selling as much is because of the cost and complex side of what it is offering where as the DS is basic and to make thinks more in context kids can treat it like shit even more.

  No need to explain yourself Tidus, you weren't the orginal maker of the article you just posted it here!!
  
  IMO I think the PSP is better than the DS (yes I have both to compare). The PSP has Internet which I love, and you can download music/videos.
  
  The DS the basic is playing games, and you have to buy other things to make it do certain stuff. Which leads to you spending more $money$.

    WHAT certain stuff to do? All I can think of is a wireless router (which is equivalent of the Wi-Fi connector).

    @Saiya
    
    So basically you think the better system is the PSP just because of the extra things you can do on it?
    
    I buy game consoles to play games on, so all that extra shit the PSP can do is irrelevant too me. It's the games library that counts.

    If you really want a sad read go and look into the further details around the death of the company, the highlight probably being the drug snorting hero Eriksson that tanked the company. (Yes the same Eriksson involved in that Enzo crash in California)

  Wow, 40,000,000 units sold. Didn't know it sold that many. 2:1 is a little unfair though. I know it says "nearly", but the DS needs to sell 10,000,000 more and the PSP sell none whatsoever for the ratio to be 2:1.
  'Gz Nintendo and I myself prefer the DS, just a little silly here.

  You can gloat about sales all you want, but when you say the PSP doesn't offer an "alternate experience" and it's automatically a bad thing, you're just treading in unknown waters. The reason I bought the PSP and not the DS was because I didn't want the stylus, I wanted the gaming experience I get on a console. I want to be able to play franchises like Metal Gear Solid, Killzone, Silent Hill, Monster Hunter (in all their glory) on road trips if I feel like it. Did I mention the online service is godamned platinum for a portable system???
  
  The Backwards compatibility argument falls flat on its face for two things. PS Store PS1 downloadables, and PSP modding (in which you can even play Super *bleep*ing Mario from the NES on the PSP).
  
  The argument should just stick with sales, not the features of the system...cuz that's easily debatable and brushed away.

    I agree, The PSP definitely has backwards capabilities. Hell the PSP can play PS1 games like you said and if done correctly PS2 games as well. While i agree the numbers are on DS side this list is just finding dumb reasons to hate the PSP. In the long run i do see PSP matching or possibly(i use this word loosely) to over-take the DS sales.

  "The Wii has not been outsold for a month worldwide ever by the xbox 360 or PS3"
  
  This sentence makes me so furious, they are just some *bleep*ing nintendo fanboys god damit, they know the PS3 has outsold the Wii a few times, but they felt like lying and saying it was never outsold so their article will be longer.

  The only reason why the DS is better than PSP is because it has a much better games library in my opinion.

  He isn't mentioning any of the good things that the PSP has that beat the DS. Just stating the DS' wins don't do much, especially when a lot of them aren't completely solid.
  
  But like ITANI said, I enjoy the DS more because of the games it has. I don't actually think one is better than the other. It's all a matter of a person's opinion, like almost everything else is in this world.

  I see the PSP as one step forward and two steps back. It's cool that they're trying to replicate console gaming on a handheld. But some bad decisions keep it from being any good. Without a second analog there are control issues. Adding web and mp3 doesn't make up for bad gameplay.
  
  It all comes down to the library in the end. The DS is just more playable. So they are able to get better third party games. And Nintendo has a much better first party lineup then Sony. Zelda, Mario, and Wario vs. God of War, and MGS which isn't actually even first party.

  The DS is a decent piece of hardware.. but (JUST LIKE THE WII), it feels like a toy compared to it's competitors (PSP).

    In New Zealand, PSP has more games than DS.
    
    Therefore I wish DS had more games.
    Or at least, bring out the crazy Jap games here please?

  I personally prefer the DS, as I have tested a PSP before at my friends house, and I found the controls (this was on a Ratchet and Clank game btw) to be somewhat tricky, and the system hard to use.
  
  Being a life-long Nintendo fan also adds to my love of the Nintendo DS, despite how much I appreciate Sony games.
