Oh for Christ's sake. The DS has about 3 games that have good enough gameplay. One of my favourite games of all time is Goonies 2, so don't even try to suggest I place graphics over gameplay.

Also, New and Different does not automatically mean better. Nintendo's innovations are currently pointless. Where's all this new styles of gameplay that the DS promised? There's hardly anything new.

The Revolution has the chance to be world-breaking, but I bet Nintendo balls it up by releasing weak games with no real substance and making us lot wait a year before the first great game comes out for it.

Funny that everyone else seems to be enjoying the games just fine :thup: Who exactly are you to judge which games have good enough gameplay ?

Sony are very good at marketing so they can sell anything. They also have a lot of 3rd party developers that the Gamecube didnt.

Even the Dreamcast was way better than the PS1, but Sony won that battle, and the Gamecube was let down by the lack of 3rd party games.

The PS2 is a very over-rated console. Its main advantage is that it has so many games to choose from. Its incredibly slow to load and the graphics i dont think are that amazing. It offers nothing new, just like the PS3. WOW it can play DVDs, i have a DVD player to do that with. Its just going to be the same games but with improved graphics.

And yes i do have a PS2 so im not biasted if you think im a Nintendo boy.

Nintendo >>>>>>>>>>> Sony/Microsoft

However Nintendo's days of console making i think are slowly coming to an end

I havent touched my DS for 3 months. That's how amazing its games are. Yet I play my playstation and Gamecube every other day. You do the math.

I haven't touched my playstation since mgs3 was released and probably won't again until final fantasy XII is released, you feel free to do the maths.

I use my DS every day on the way to work and on the way home.

What games do you play on the DS?

Currently I'm playing Pokemon XD on the Gamecube, although i'm likely to stop playing as it's apparently very shallow and has none of the qualities of the handheld games. On the PS I'm playing GTA3:SA and GT4. SO currently for me, the PS offers more. Of course, when the new Zelda comes out, I won't be playing anything else for weeks...

Um, DS is easily the best console since the SNES.

Phoenix Wright, Mario 64, Advance Wars, Castlevania, Tony Hawks, Mario Kart and Ossu! Tatakae! Ouendan! are all fantastic games.

Half those games are just taken from other consoles and have a bit added where you shake astcik at the screen.

Yes but it's an handheld console, it's slightly hard to use your gamecube or ps2 or snes or whatever console on the train.
