So long PSP!

[strider_mt2k]

I'm going to off (get rid of, sell, trade in) my PSP and re-do my setup on my TH55 to bring IT back into full use again doing PMP duties.

This is a full swing away from where I WAS going. (We can ALL flip flop!! :D )
Palm, Windows, or WHATEVER, a full-fledged computer is far more useful on a daily basis than a simple (or complex) entertainment machine.

Reasons for offing the PSP:
No compelling games.
Homebrew and emulators a pain in the *** to keep up with.
The thing is a fragile behemoth that doesn't lend itself to casual gaming.

Call it a failed experiment.

I'm going to get a new backlit GBA SP to go with my GB Micro and hang there for a while until I see where things are really going.

No, I'm not getting a DS, sorry guys.
GBA (and some GB) games are what I play .

You can play GBA games too on the DS :D. I use it mostly for the GBA games as well :D. There are so many great games on the GBA. Riveria, FFTactics, Tactics Ogre, Mega Man Zero, Zelda....on and on :D.

Mike, how about "just" getting a 12" Powerbook? ;)

Apple is the best ;)

BUY A DS!!! :D I just bought Lunar Dragon Song!!! FINALLY A RPG FOR MY DS!!! :D DS games in generall are the next evolution of GBA games. They share many traits that make GBA games great, but offer a whole new level of play that really make DS games quite fun in general. Not to be a punmeister, but DS games are double the fun of GBA games.

Besides Lunar Song, Trace Memory and Lost in the Blue were just released. I'm so torn, because I want all of these games. I'll just need to quickly beat Lunar so that I can get my next game.

I checked out a GBA Micro today, it looks great. The screen is really tight. Just to tute the DS's screen though, it's no slouch either and also looks great for GBA games. :) The one thing I really liked about it, was its buttons. The DPad is more like the original GBA which I really like. If I can hook it up to a GC with a soon to be released adapter, it's moving to my must-purchase list, and I'll be buying 2.

And just to ramble some more, the DS is by far the best game machine I've owned. Just do it! Games like the new Castlevania are just toooo good to pass up. And if you look at the future development for the GBA, it's actually starting to dip off in favor of development for the DS. EGM had an article about this the other month.

OH MY GOD!
HOW IS IT!?
I wanted it so bad, but Ill get Lost In Blue and tell you how it is ^__^

The Micro is SICK.

I'm still at the start position, just got through the intro. I was so excited, that I posted before I started playing. :D

Lost in Blue. Droooooool. I soooo want this game. I'm going to get Trace Memory in a couple of weeks, than LIB. :)

[LupeValenz]

AGggggh, how did Lost in Blue get by my radar! Thats it, I'm so gettin it first thing when I wake up LOL. I love the whole survival thing. Go out huntin withyour bow for food, and fishin too :D. Err...ok..darn it lol, thinkin bout Castlevania too...errr -_-'. Darn the choices! Why can't Nintendo be like sony and only give us one choice of games, instead of bombardin us with plenty....it hurts my brain!! /(>_<)\

[JackAxe]

I know, if only things could be simpler with less choices. NOT!!! The game floodgates have been open, and it's full of fun. :D *Oh, that was a lame comment I just made* :confused:

There are also quite a few games on the GameCube now that I really want, like Battalion Wars. But the DS gets priority, since it's such a great system, it also helps that the games are generally cheaper. :)

BTW, the new brighter SP looks fantastic.

Shoulda been that way from the beginning.

[JackAxe]

I would like to get a couple, but not at the price. It wouldn't be worth it just to play Chrystal Chronicles and the Four Swords.

The tiny size of the GBA-M makes it appealing. I wouldn't use a SP on the go, since my DS covers that area, but there would be times when I would take a GBA-M with me over my DS.
