What should I do about HANDHELD gaming?

Vidiot · October 10, 2007, 11:05:59 PM

Man I'm confuzzled. I don't know what to do! I used to be a DS gamer, back when I played Metroid Prime Hunters a lot. However now I play my ds maybe once a week. If that.

Can someone give me some good games for the DS? Preferably Online ones. I already own/played: Starfox, Mario Kart, Clubhouse games, Metroid Prime Hunters, Internet Browser (olol wut?), and Custom Robo Arena.

Can someone (who isn't a Nintendo "fanboy") give me a good game list of PSP games that have good online play? Also give me some reasons why I should GET a PSP. Like is the browser good (on the PSP)? Does the PSP have "good" wireless? (what I mean is does it connect to wifi networks better than the ds? The ds lets me connect to maybe 1 out of every 4 without an error code). How long does the battery last?

I really need the help. If I find some good games for the PSP I might sell my ds lite and get a PSP :(.

Thanks in advance

With DS, well I live on my DS. But I'll just suggest a few games, take it with a grain of salt...

Planet Puzzle League is a great game, and it has WiFi. But It's a puzzle game, and not to mention WiFi is almost dead on it most of the time.
Luminous Arc came out recently. It has WiFi, and it's a pretty good turn based strategy/rpg game.
Panzer Tactics DS is coming out soon, and it looks to be cool for those into Turn based strategy games.
Advance Wars DS2 might have WiFi, although it's unconfirmed.
Zelda Phantom Hourglass is a great game, and it's WiFi is actually good, if a bit gimmicky.

If you don't have the Phoenix Wright games, be sure to pick them up, even though they're not Wi-fi.

I just found the game that's going to make me "keep" my DS :O.

Warhammer 40,000 Squad Command! :O. It's like an action/strategy game. It will support SIX PLAYERS playing online together! IT will also be like the first DS game to actually let you voice chat, IN GAME with anyone! AHHHH it looks SICK!

Also Megaman Starforce 2 comes out soon so yeah guess I'm keeping my DS :D

Advance Wars. The AW games may not have online, but they're good.

MPH does have voice chat, but it's not IN GAME (like while your fighting) and it's only with people that you shared FCs with

I used to own a psp, but traded it in, because I couldn't find any good games for it. However, I did like socom, which had pretty decent online, and that was basically the only online I ever used. However, if you do get a psp, make sure you get Kingdom of Paradise, it was my favorite psp game.
