Sony supporters are so desperate that they think a 100$ price cut will change something in this gen's outcome. How will they react if in the next 48 hours Microsoft announce a price cut too?
Plus PSP is totally at the bottom of the mountain when we take a look at the DS marketshare (68.1%) and the new model won't change anything. All the major third party games will stay on the DS.

Actually, what we mainly see on DS like Wii is a lot of shovelware. The big third party games on DS don't tend to sell all that well eg. Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars has come nowhere near selling what the PSP GTA games have sold. And 50 million PSP's sold is too large of a number for developers to ignore. That's why we see new games like FF Dissidia and Metal Gear Solid Peacewalker come to PSP while Square generally just continues to remake their back catalogue on DS.

I'm don't agree with what he says, but I don't agree with with you either. Square-Enix(remember square is dead it is only square enix now) has put it's second largest main series on the DS. This game is called DQIX. Now this game isn't only a mainseries title, it is also on track to outselling every game on the PSP platform. The best the PSP has to get near the size of DQIX is Final Fantasy XIII Agito, and even then it is nowhere near as big as a main series dragon quest. So how about we get that out of the way.
Now let's talk about the remakes. If the PSP was as profitable as the DS was at the start, I have no doubt that they would have continued remaking games for it. They started out with the first two Final Fantasies(which btw are more of enhanced ports than remakes.) Then the third and forth ones they put on DS. Let me also note, that the DS has more non-remake square enix games than the PSP. I could make a list, but unless you ask me, I won't waste my time.
I just wanted to clarify some things. Also don't get me wrong, the PSP is my second favorite platform this generation, but when it comes to DS(my favorite platform ever) it has to take priority, and I have to defend it when fallacious statements are going against it.

Okay, but as far as their most technologically advanced handheld games go, Square has been putting the vast majority of them on PSP. Crisis Core, Dissidia, and the upcoming games the Kingdom Hearts title, the Parasite Eve Sequel, and Agito.

What does technologically advanced games, have to do with what the conversation was about? I'm getting confused. It makes sense that the more technologically advanced games would come out on the more powerful platform. Also Parasite Eve isn't a sequel, it is a spinoff.
