Piracy had nothing to do with it. DS has massive piracy but it still sells.
The PSP library is horrible. If you can name 10 good games that doesnt mean its library was good. It needs way more. The PSP is a terrible gaming platform and it fails as a gaming platform because it tries to be so many different things and gets none of them right so it fails in all it tries to be.

How wrong you are.

 

If you look at these Gamerankings:

If you noticed, both PSP and DS have 121 titles of 70%+.

 

Looking at this:

PSP has 47 titles over 80%, DS has 44.

 

You obviously don't own a PSP and you obviously haven't tried most of the games. It has a great game library that mostly caters to different tastes then the DS.

I suggest you actually get to know something before trash talking it.

 

 

 

 

 

Funny because....Im playing a PSP right now......

GameRankings and reviews can kiss my ass. They mean nothing and so do those dumbass percentage numbers. There are more fun games on DS than the PSP. You guys hold to much value on the number and rankings.

Fun is very subjective, that is why any reviewer that is worth a damn doesn't tell you how fun it is.

I've said it before, and I know I'll be forced to say it again (and again [and again]) but aggregated review scores (like the ones on Metacritic and Gamerankings) are useful when you're comparing two games in the same genre on the same platform, but if you're comparing two games in different genres or different platforms the scores become (more or less) meaningless.
