Nintendo DS or PSP???

Just wanted some advice as to weather a Nintendo DS or a PSP would be best for at 21 year old female, taking into account the games you can get for them and quality of the graphics etc. Also are there any good offers about? thanks :j x

    Santa brought my 7 year old a DS for xmas.

    Mummy plays on it more. :o

    If it was my choice it would be the DS all over! I'm 23 BTW and hoping for one for my birthday. :D

    hi

    would recommend the ds, i have the pink psp and a pink ds, my 5 year old daughter has a pink ds as well. i play the ds all the time and rarely play the psp, (only use it really when going on holiday, on the plane to watch umds). the ds has much more fun games for all ages. i even completed my daughters barbie game for her. i also liked diner dash and cake mania.

  • Gotta disagree with you all , the PSP wins hands down . I have 4 PSP's and 1 DS in the house . Daughter ( 7 yrs old ) owns pink PSP and pink DS . Always on the PSP , DS does get a look in but the technology of the PSP whips the DS .

    Best thing you can do is to downgrade your PSP as well , no need for games , just a large (4GB Pro Duo Memory Stick) is all that is needed , holds about 12 games at a time . We currently have over 300 PSP games on file , just load them on to my memory stick whenever I want and away I go , the films can go on the memory stick as well .

    Just my opinion :D
    Baby Thomas born 3 months early by emergency section on 21/1/09 weighing 1lb 15ozs .
    Thomas came home after 3 months and 2 days in hospital weighing 5lb 15ozs
    Thomas weighed 21lb 4ozs on his 1st birthday , a total weight gain of 18lbs 5ozs !

    You can also do the same with the DS but it can hold up to 45 games, music, homebrew games and functions.

    I think we have decided on a DS but have looked everywhere and all are out of stock, Argos have got some good deals so hopefully will be back in stock soon as its her birthday day on the 14th! fingers crossed :confused:

    I also say the DS, I think the games are more girl friendly.
