everyone thinks the psp is better, but the user interface is tough for technically inclined users, its really expensive, yes it does play music and movies but the ds will soon have that capability. the ds also has a touch screen that makes playing games much more fun. and 2 screens! the psp doesnt have 2 screens. the psp is very very prone to scratches, cracks, and broken parts. the ds is liek a rock. no gloss finish, no sensitive screen, plus the games are on a cd, this means loading time and possible disc damage. the ds only uses and small card. plus, the psp's online feature has bugs and glitches. especially hard to use for people who dont read the manual. on the ds, you just press (on the touch screen :)) nintendo wifi and you on. It also seems more kid friendly, and because most of the consumers purchase these for their kids, it seems like the ds sells more.
oh and my favorite feature on the ds, you can play your friends even if they dont have the same game as you! ds download play. same game same graphics better then psp.

ok. NINTENDO SUCKS. its new systems sucks, and gameboys are getting dumb and childish. Sony has made something that the older masses can enjoy, the PSP. music, games, movies, pictures, internet, tv, and much much more to come. about the firmware, you can download the firmware upgrade off of the sony playstation website, so dont worry about that. can a gameboy play music? play movies? access the internet? does the gameboy have a new application coming out so that you can also use it as a GPS? the answer to all those questions are NO!!! the PSP has all that, the GPS will be out in a matter of months. also, they have a camera that will attach to the top and allow you to use the PSP as a digital camera. and dont say "i can just buy a digital camera and get the same effect" because u can not! can u play games on a digital camera? listen to music? watch movies? answer to those questions are NO!!
the psp is a very good offer, sony made a smart decision to put it into mass production. also, it will be able to interact with the PS3, and that will be awesome. microsoft wants to do something like that for the xbox 360, but sadly, they're just following in sony's footsteps. the sony staff had that planned when they first started thinkin the psp and ps3 up.
the psp is awesome! games, movies, music, videos, pictures, gps, digital camera, system links, internet..!!
so, trust me, as the owner of 3 psp systems, the psp is very much worth every cent u spend on it. just make sure to get a protective case for ur UMDs, and make sure to get a nice sized memory stick to start out with, i recommend the 1gb, but if u have the money, get a 2gb.
if u have any questions, email me.

It all depands on what you are using it for. A PSP can play music and movies and you can put emulations on it. A DS has way better games than the PSP and more original. The PSP has barely any good games and most of them are remakes of the PS2. In my opinion the DS is better.

the psp becuse if you get a memory card withe big storage it can be an mp3 player portable dvd player but you must convert the vide to mp4 and if you have camera or pictures that you like and it has a internet browser so if you go to wireless hot spot or if you have a router at home and with every month or 2 an update comes out making it even better like with one of the updates i just got you can play or wacth flash games or animation the ds i only good for is games or playing the games multiplayer and wan palying someone over the internet wich also the psp can do so the best buy would be th psp you can get it used so it is cheaper but you should get new

a psp is better because it has better graphics, can play movies, can hold some music in it and best of all has better games than a ds. But, a psp is more expensive than a nintendo ds, because the psp has more capabilities

Actually the DS is better than PSP. It has very good graphics & is the latest. But go for it if you have a lot of games that can be played with it.

Personally, I think the PSP is better. Not only can you play PSP games, you can surf the Internet wirelessy via the hotspots(restaurants, hotels, cafes, etc.) listen to MP3 and WMA files, watch videos(by downloading them or on the UMD), and even watch TV(if you have the LocationFree TV Player base station).
That's why PSP is a heck of a lot better than Nintendo DS.
