I dunno, hardware wise I think its pretty clear that PSP2>3DS>Ipod

So, as far as multiplatform games go I think the PSP2 would be the default choice.

All of these platforms offer cheap small downloadable titles (via eshop, psp mini/ps suite, app store) though larger budget titles seem to be mostly limited to the 3DS and PSP2 due to price points and control options.

However after that fact, what is really important is exclusive quality game content. Both 3DS and PSP2 will have this as a strong point.

This is an area where iOS games struggles as they are often very cheap disposable game experiences; and, if popular have a slew of shameless imitators. This leaves the consumer with an impossible chore of sifting though thousands upon thousands worthless of games, unless the consumer is told by marketing or by a mass consumer base which game to buy (and being told what to buy is never ideal as marketing would control success rather than game quality).

I agree, but that table looks a bit biased towards Sony IMO...

Yeah because saying truth about hardware is obvious sign of bias ;)

Look at what dude below me says

Let's talk about 2 screens, 3D screens, Nintendo games, 3 cameras etc. so...

Does the 3ds have achievements? 

Yes. As far as I know...

They definitely have reward schemes, that's for sure

Yeah, that's pretty much the point.

If you make something which you KNOW is a selling point and can't be on the other consoles you aren''t comparing, it's being biased...

That chart was a technical comparison though..

I can see what he is saying, another one would be to add physical backwards compatibility. Since it is pro PSP2, it obviously won't have that while the 3DS would have a check.

There are many stuff the chart says good about the 3DS, it has three arrows for cameras whereas only 2 for the PSP2 so its not exactly as biased as you would like to call it.

But what are they going to do? They needed to have a camera option to show that the PSP2 had 2 cameras, and they can't just put one or two checks for the 3DS because that would just be wrong. If the PSP didn't have any cameras then there probably wouldn't have been a camera section.

They were comparing all 3DS and PSP2 and ipod touch so backwards compatibility is out of question.

Ipod doesn't even have a physical media.

But that's the point. It would be in the favour of the 3DS if you did that!

So why is it so in favour of the PSP2? There's plenty of areas which include just ticks for the PSP2, so clearly it isn't comparing as to gloating about their USP
