Did Worm hijack your account? I can't tell what you're trying to say.
It was clearly marked as a "Reply-o-Rama." That means that I am replying to many people and not bothering to identify whom. It's like a puzzle! In text form.
Who got the PSP? You?
Yeah, I have the Milker's old PSP. But with PSP, older is better because it still had the 1.5 BIOS on it.
And if you did, why would you be impressed by the DS's wireless?
Because the DS will install a play client, allowing people
who do not own one of Nintendo's admittedly weak-ass games (currently) to play games together. If I'm on a bus and I put in my Tennis game and someone else has... heh... HAHAHHAHA, sorry, that was about as far as I could get painting a picture of me ever taking public transportation.
OK, for real: I'm waiting in line at the bank or the movies or the local liver wash for my weekly liver scrub and I whip out the DS and start playing Fake Tennis with people. I am able to do that, because even if the other drunks don't have Tennis the DS will make it so that they, essentially, do. Jethro, you are a man of many opinions and many slain foes. But even you must admit that's awesome. Let's contrast that with the nerds waiting in line for "Episode 3."
PSP has all that. When Da King and I were waiting in line for SWEp3, there were at least three folks with PSPs, and they were showing up in his PocketPC's wireless. (There was one, maybe two folks with DSs.)
Those two with the DS were able to play each other's games! Statistically, there was a 100% chance that they could play together. For the PSP, you need the people in line to all happen to be carrying the same game. To expand their odds, they'd have to bring ALL their games. Gee, that sounds like fun. Meanwhile, if I have a DS I can slog around with NOTHING and there's still a good chance I'm playing NintenDoorKnobs or FamiConway Twitty's Guitar God because I got the client installed on my machine by someone else.
The dual-screen thing sucks ass. Almost as dumb as the Virtual Boy.
Have you ever actually played the Virtual Boy? They had a bunch of them at EB when I was there. It was garbage. If you can HONESTLY say that the DS is as dumb as the VB then I will eat cat hair. I think the thing is sharp. I think it offers a nice gimmick that could be used for a hundred cool, new games.
Hey, I'm all about stuff which can't be emulated. That's why I got Xenophone and CC. Say what you will about the DS, you can't emulate what it does elsewhere.
Guess what, Nintendo - gimmicks don't cut it. You've got to deliver superior hardware if you want people to lay down their greenies.
I know what you mean, but in Nintendo's defense people have been buying the same shit forever. This is why the Lynx failed. And don't get me wrong, I thought the Lynx was a million times cooler than the Gameboy. 1.2 million, in fact!
Because other than that it seems to be the superior product.
(Definitely a gag. ICJ is here claiming that the DS seems to be superior to the PSP.)
I think it is. All the PSP has is MAME and some other emulators, and Sony actively spent cycles and engineering hours on ELIMINATING it. What's your big killer app for the PSP? Death, Jr.? At least Nintendo gave everyone a shoot-em-up with their system, but there's Sony trying to get people interested in Tomb Raider clones. Maybe you are seeing something different, but I look at Medieval and I see some mope awkwardly lurch around a bungalow. Playing Burnout on the PS2's controller was rough enough, I can't imagine having any fun holding a PSP and trying to play it.
Keep up! MS announced long ago that "some" games will be compatable. In other words, they'll probably all need patches that are brought down over the Xbox Live (which you still have to freaking pay a monthly fee for.)
That's what I mean. The word is not out yet. "Some" games isn't very good info.
