I meant as far as innovation in actual games for the console. There are lots of fun things you can do with a PSP and it's definitely a well-made console, but there are more interesting types of games you can make with the DS (like the new Guitar Hero and Linerider games

)

I strongly prefer DS, even though its the only one I own. I'm also a very big sony hater, so... yea

Besides, the best game ever is for the DS.

Bleach: The Blade of Fate =3

Isn't this rather biased, since most people haven't had enough time with each system to make a fair analysis, and just opt for whatever they own?

I've never even touched a DS, so the last thing I'm gonna do is make judgements about a system I don't own. looks like fun, though.

As for my PSP, well... It's rather good, but if you can get custom firmware on it, It goes from just being "good", to absolutely amazing.

I can run MAME, CPS1 and 2 Arcade roms, SNES, Genesis, GBC and GBA roms as well. Then there's also the Playstation emulator that runs almost every single Psone games perfectly, since it was already there on the system, just hidden away. And that's not counting all the other great homebrew applications out there that allow me to have TV out on a non-progressive scan TV, to being able to use the IR sensor to turn it into a universal remote.

Still, there's one thing the DS will never have. Monster hunter! the only game with the most phallically huge swords in videogame history!!

RAWR!!!
