Since you're a stats-lover, have you ever wondered how many DS'es the average DS owner owns, what with the model change and the constant color additions (and then there are also the limited editions)? Is number of units sold more important than number of unique DS users? What do you think the average number of PSP's per PSP owner is? And how do you think the number of unique DS owners compares to the number of unique PSP owners?

 

Well I know the DS sells more games per unit hardware sold than the PSP. That should be the most telling stat at all. The PSP was supposed to be the hardcore gamer's handheld, yet DS owners are buying more games.


True but how many are not downloading weekly a game on their PSP it is incridible my brother have more than 50 illegal games on his PSP.

That is nothing: The sysadmin at the office where I work has a hard drive replete with 900 - count 'em - 900 DS titles that he drags-and-drops to his DS at will!

 But you still have to buy the flash cart for the DS. PsP is easier to bootleg games.

In before pathetic excuses for why the PSP is still awesome/winning/better than the DS.

I'm not too sure of that.

A guy at the office has had his PSP for ages before he bought a DS, and during all that time he never bothered to figure out how to bootleg his PSP, because he found it a tad hard and inconvenient to follow for the very first time. Yeah, he did finally get around to it though.

He bought his DS with the flash cart included, and it was a matter of literally dragging and dropping files from his PC to his DS.

Ergo, PSP may be "cheaper" to bootleg games as it does not require additional hardware, but the DS is more "user-friendly" to bootleg.

 No one said the PSP is selling more than the DS, still means it's a great system. 

I guess you thought the Gamecube was shit then?



Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

Well, I still give PSP its props for actually competing with the DS. I dont think it will do as well next time around, however.

I think it will do better next generation, you see Nintendo coming up with something other than another DS variation?
