I bought a DS already. Only problem so far was that it had a dead pixel in the top screen, went and exchanged it for another...simple.

However don't think of it as another Game Boy. It is much a personal organiser that plays games (although you can't enter dates or reminder messages)

I was surprised at how heavy it was when I first picked it up, but it certainly feels solid and durable.

Games are now on a flash card instead of a cartridge (similar in size to olympus digital camera cards)and just feels a lot better than a cartridge.

Picto chat is very cool. Possibly the best feature of the system. (haven't been able to use it yet due to no one else having a DS....yet)

Also I thought $200 was a good price for this system. Compared to overseas where it was a bit more expensive.

As for the PSP, all the features like movies + music are a nice touch and the big screen is great too (a little too big for my liking) but drop it once and the screen is almost guaranteed to get scratched (seeing as it occupies a fair bit of space) The PSP battery only lasting 4 hours is a bit of a shit ( and I think it lasts even less when playing movies)

Anyway the DS is a sign nintendo is growing up. Ads for the system feature adults using them only...not a spotty little shit in sight!
