Gameworld: "RIP PSP"

powersurge said:
The problem I have with my PSP is I got it because I wanted games not the extra features. I use the extra goodies but if I really wanted a mp3 player and such I'd get an iPod.

The extra features are nice don't get me wrong but the games just don't seem to be there. I have GTA, Daxter, Mega Man X, Medievil, and Lumines. And only 2 others that I am interested in (Syphon Filter and Ghosts & Ghouls). The rest that are out there seem to be stripped down ps2 ports. I know the PSP can handle some great things such as Daxter (not just a port of a ps2 game) but sony seems to be ignoring it.

In the mean time nintendo is pumping out hit after hit on the DS.

fake edit: Oh yeah I almost forgot about Loco Roco and maybe Gitaroo Man. Well ok I admit there are some good titles for the PSP I guess what I'm trying to say is they are trickling when the DS has them pouring in.

What "hit" titles are pouring in for the DS? I'll admit the new DS is good looking but when I had one, at launch, the unit itself was unnatractive there were no games cept' Mario. Does the DS even have any 3rd party support from developers. Pokemon and Mario have to get old eventually.

I think this is the point. The DS isn't reliant on hit (read sequels) games, and most people are happy with the high quality, unique titles that are coming out for it. There's been plenty of threads on the forums where people have asked for a list of good DS games.

I don't think many people would run out of things to play.

[Edit, yes there are plenty of third party developers too]
 
Im still waiting for these high quality games to "pour" in for my DS, I got new Mario which is Brilliant and mario kart which is also excellent, theres nothing else that grabs my fancy atm, i might sell it if nothing good is on the horizon.

In fairness, the games available may not be the type of games you like. The DS is pretty crappy for shooters and racing games... but then again I think that's fairly obvious.

Get yourself Castlevania... or any of the Brain Age games... or Mario & Luigi (Mario RPG), or Animal Crossing... or Phoenix Wright, or Trauma Center... perhaps save up for Harvest Moon or Starfox or Final Fantasy 3. There are tons of games, both with big names, and with NO names, that are excellent for the platform. Since you seem to be quite the fan of the PSP, perhaps you need more traditional (read: sequelitis, port-itis) games, and perhaps you shouldn't look to the DS for that. As EA has found out, simple ports aren't going to cut it. The Need for Speed games, Burnout, EA Sports games, etc etc are all on the DS, but nobody buys them. Why? Because that's not what they want on the platform (and they suck). They want unique titles, or existing titles with a twist (see: Resident Evil). This is the beauty of the DS, and this is why it feels mostly fresh compared to everything else. For those of you who can't find good games on the platform, either you're not looking hard enough (i.e. you only look at something with the number "2" or "3" after it), or it simply doesn't have the fighting/shooting games that you want. It pretty much has anyone for anything, though - so I fail to see how some cannot see that.

Heres my personal list of favs:
Advance Wars (almost a year of playing and I still love it)
Castlevania
Pheonix Wright (can be a bit slow but still good)
Meteos
Animal Crossing
Nintendogs?
RE (basically a port but a classic)
Thats pretty much all I liked (and I've played many). tosp listed a few other good ones too.
Also tosp, imo, EA did not do well on the DS simply because of the poor (thats an understatement) graphics.
 
Gamers could probably excuse the poor battery life if the PSP had better games.

The problems is that too many of the games are PS2 ports. People don't want to play a 60-hour RPG or a complex 20-hour action adventure game or a complex FPS on a handheld. Platformers, shoot 'em' ups, beat 'em' ups, and puzzle games are much more appealing for a handheld, and this is where the DS excels.

The DS had an installed user base when it made its appearance, and it was able to tap that user base. The PSP, on the other hand, didn't have this, so what it seems to be attempting is to tap the user base of the PS2, which is why there are a billion ports. The problem is that people are going to expect to get the same experience from these games that they would on the PS2, but they aren't going to because the PSP is not a home console, it's a handheld

Sony seems to have the right idea with games like Gradius Collection Pack, Lumines, Mega Man Powered Up, and Loco Roco. If it could look at what games make a handheld good, the PSP could be a lot more successful.
 
Most of those DS games listed are rehashes it looks like to me, which is what most accuse the PsP games of doing. Both are heavy into ports and remakes with very few original titles imho. I have both, and like them, but each has their own uses depending on what you want to do.
Both will only get better with age i think..Or until the next greatest handheld comes along with all the features of both... :p

Name the DS games that are rehashes/ports with a few added features, and NOT proper sequels. I'll start you off: Mario 64 DS - the launch game. Please continue.

Mario kart, tetris, animal crossing, metroid, new smb, advance wars, and even mario & luigi are as close to their forefathers as the psp "ports" that some people commonly criticize the system for: syphon filter, gta, wipeout, any of the mega man games, jak and daxter, tekken. The reason ds games dont often look like the gamecube iterations in the series are cause the hardware cant handle it. Psp games might use the same engine, even, but if the gameplay is new the game is not a port. How many of those games i listed have you played at least halfway through?
 
Yeah, I don't get what's with the PSP hate. I think there's decent amount of good games on the PSP to keep a gamer happy. Yeah, a lot of PSP games are based off their PS2 counterpart, but guess what, not everyone that owns a PSP owns a PS2.

To the poster that said that no one wants a complex and long game for a handheld, that's a stupid statement. What you're saying is that RPG's and games such as Zelda are not fit for handhelds, but some of the best games on the GB and GBA are rpgs' and Zelda games. Plus, as handhelds' power increase in the future, the games are going to turn more and more console-like.

Another thing, why does everyone say that there's so many hit games that's on the DS? If someone makes a list of games that are over 80% on gamerankings for both systems, I'd bet the numbers are around the same. IMO, too many of DS's games are just quirky little mini-games turned into a full game, which I have no interested in (not for $30-40 anyways).

Mario Kart added Wifi Internet multiplayer (Not a rehash, a wonderful evolution.)
Tetris is the most addicting experiance, also added Wifi. (First multiplayer Tetris ever, and a Touch tetris which would be worth it to be its own game.)

Should I continue? You guys apparently have not played the DS, there is very little rehash or ports on the system. (Only the crap from EA, but if you buy any of their crap, you deserve to have it.)
SM64 is a port too, but im not bringing that up. I dont buy ports. I.E. I dont own that game.

So comparatively, If I was to buy a PSP today, I would get 3 games. Gradius Collection, Mega Man X, Street Fighter Anthology. All are ports. I see nothing better on the PSP besides those 3 games, which I already own on other platforms. Hence why I dont own a PSP.

So yeah, there is something flawed with Sony's strategy. All the new fun stuff is on the DS, and all the old upgraded stuff is on the PSP. Sorry, not worth $300, give or take.

Trauma Center
Tetris online
MK online
Brain Age
New SMB

ah and yes, a touch screen which no other system has.
Yeah, the DS is full of rehashed crap... :rolleyes:

Exactly 50% of the tracks in mario kart ds were reused from previous games...they even say "snes/n64/gcn" next to the name of each one. The split screen mode looked exactly like the old snes setup, and the game didnt use touch screen at all. Plus, wifi play in that game is ridiculously limited...no battle mode? Same thing with tetris, there's 3 multiplayer modes available, and thats it. Not to mention the complete lack of any sort of community or messaging features.

Yes, i own a ds, and yes the first 3 games i bought were mario kart, new smb, and tetris. Mario kart was disappointing in some respects, but it was fun while it lasted. Tetris is fun to play online, but it still needs more. I like my ds, but defining psp's franchise titles as "ports" and ds' as original and "evolutionary" is blatant !!!!!! hypocrisy. Either both has ports or neither do, depending on your personal interpretation of the term. I enjoy titles on both systems, but apparently some people arent mature enough to do this.

LOL, I laughed when I read this. When is the new Secret of Mana coming out for the D.S? I heard it will have multiplayer capability. THAT is what I am stoked about.
 
Funny, just was playing with my DS LITE for the past three weeks and when my niece came over i handed her my PSP and said "here you can have this"

That's BS as far as Metroid Prime: Hunters is concerned. It's only similar to the GCN MP games if you just look at screenshots. It plays completely different than other Metroid games and it's much more of a shooter than an adventure and exploration game. You don't gain your abilities as the game progresses... everything you can do is possible at the beginning of the game. The only thing you pick up as you go along is weapons, much like other FPS games.
 
I meant rehashes as in something NOT done before or is a sequel to a pre-existing game. Or even a remake of a game for the handheld. Neither of them shine in that department. And i do have games for both. I play and like them both actually for whatever i feel like playing at the time.
People were certain the PsP was doomed not so long ago but it's still around so that's a good sign imho. And best of all, the competition will hopefully prod developers to make better games for each.
When we get to the point where handhelds have the graphic qualities of say the 360, then i'll be alot more excited.. :p

L. O. Fucking L.


Do you have any better comebacks? I mean seriously, yeah, I do - those that come from reputable sources. I'm smart about what I read and whether to classify it as fact or fiction.

But there is a fine line between real world news on the internet, and the internet. The major PSP-suckage is not just visable on the Internet, it's visible in real-life. Why was there a huge line for DS Lite? Why was there a DS Lite? Nintendo obviously believed that DS was a success, and released DS Lite. And there is where fact comes in, DS was a success - proven by the fact that there was a huge demand for it.

I bought a PSP. On Launch day for that matter. My twelve year-old brother now has it, but even then, he prefers his GBA:SP over it.

The PSP will be dead when it's dead, so let's not argue about it. This thread is already on my "to close soon" list, so please keep it clean, if you'd like to prolong its life. ;)

I don't really see how the PSP suckage is visible in real life. PSP and DS are pretty much neck and neck sale wise in the US, DS is only beating the PSP in Japan (and pretty much everything else), and we all know how much Japan loves quriky games. Plus, I don't see how DS Lite doing well has anything to do with PSP sucking. Releasing the DS Lite has nothing to do with the success of the original DS, all the Nintendo fans who bought DS acted as if they didn't know a redesign was coming (GBA, GBA SP, GBA Micro anyone?).

Personally, I like both systems, as they offer different game experiences. IMO, the PSP is doing actually quite well for a first timer, at least its not bleeding money like the Xbox did.

The point is, this article and this thread accomplish nothing. The people who read this "news" as you call it read it to say "I told you so," not to learn anything. They've already made up their mind. There's plenty of good games out on psp that you cant get anywhere else. Even with the death of umd movies, which everyone with half a brain saw coming two years ago, the psp is still more versatile than the ds as a multimedia machine. If anything, its much better now thanks to ms prices.

This whole thread reminds me of the "serenity now, insanity later" seinfeld. Some of you seem to have an awful lot of pent up rage from playing nintendogs and animal crossing.

Oh, and if there's a reason DS players are full of rage, it's not animal crossing or nintendogs - It's Trauma Center. I'm a fairly calm person and I must admit that on the later levels I nearly ended up embedding my DS in a wall more than once. ;)

There is a HUGE difference between a proper sequel (read: GTA LCS, me and my katamari; new smb, mario kart, animal crossing, mario and luigi) and ports with added features, as much of the PSP's library is and exactly what Mario 64 DS was. When you learn that difference, come back to this thread. Sure, some of these sequels weren't as good as the game they were based on (GTA comes to mind) but they are all legitimate sequels - not ports.

And to the individual complaining about retro tracks in Mario Kart... are you serious? Have you played any Mario Kart games before? Normally you get 4 or 5 cups worth of new tracks... This time, they gave you 4 cups of new courses, and 4 cups of retro courses (some of which were completely redesigned with the new 3D engine on the DS).

As has been said in this thread, to anyone who isn't delusional, or prefers only sports/fighting games, the DS library is stronger and more original than the competition hands down. I, too, sold the PSP and I'm glad that I did.
 
I too bought a PSP on launch day, and would never own a DS, but still, I know a buttkicking when I see it, and the PSP is definetely getting rear ended.

It became EXTREMELY clear when they have like 50 times more UMD Movies than actual games. They would release a sub par game every 3 months, and like 5 new movies every week. Hell, I bought 5 games (Ridge Racer, Wipeout Pure, Lumines, Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee, and GTA: LCS), and I loved all of those games to death, and I am thinking of getting Valkyrie Profile, and Power Stone 2, but the DS has a lot more original games, and costs roughly half the price (Think about it, a PSP is 50 bucks less than a 360 Core). The PSP MIGHT have sold more when it comes to systems, but let's face it, it's a no brainer that the DS outsold them in the games department.

The main reason I think the PS3 will fail is the same reason as the PSP: Sony will market it as a "Jack of all trades" system, and probably won't even focus on the videogames, not to mention it's excessive cost.

For every psp game that you consider a port, i could list a solid game that isnt one. Any philosophy or arguments textbook would teach you that the specific does not prove the general. Would i have trouble finding 100 excellent games id like to buy on psp? Of course i would. Are there 15-20 really good games, more than i would have enough time to play even if i felt like buying them all? Yes, and thats all that counts.

Do i consider mario kart ds a port? No, but by your definition it is. If you consider it 'innovative' as some people seem to, then you have to look at the same types of psp titles the same way. You cant just throw the word 'port' at every psp game and hope it sticks just because you dislike sony.
 
I just bought a DS Lite last night, knowing 110% that the PSP is a dying breed.

The fact that the PSP is being outsold by an established market leader with a huge user base doesn't mean that it's a failure. By that logic, the Gamecube and Xbox were failures, especially when you consider that they were outsold by a much bigger margin.

DS sales are going to be much higher right now because of the DS Lite, but there's no denying that the PSP has sold very well in N. America.

It's done a hell of a lot better than the Atari Lynx or Gamegear.

The DS has also been out longer than the PSP and dominated the handheld era till Sony came. Of course the PSP isn't going to beat (or even get close in this case) the DS since its Sony's first handheld. I would like to see the "PSP 2" if Sony is still around by then. :p Also the NDS is much cheaper than the PSP so this is a great gift for parents to give to their children.

I'm willing to wager money that the next PSP will have a touch screen and an accelerometer built in.... but no rumble :D

Actually, the PSP2 may never come to fruition. Sony is in a financial rut right now, and every PSP is still losing them money. They're supposed to make it back by selling games and UMDs, but both of them are selling pathetically right now, worldwide. To top it off, if the PS3 doesn't take off after its initial holiday sell out, and it ends up in a similar rut as the PSP, the company may not have the money to bleed into a second handheld - they're already loaning money out to pay for the PS3.

22 and 19, why does every keep saying that PSP's games suck? Everyone has different taste in games, just because you don't like the games on a particular system doesn't mean it sucks. Both are great systems that are aimed at different audiences.

Thanks for pointing that out!, Like i said before i think sony have done very well to nab 30% of Nintendos Market Share, If iwasNintendo id beshitting myself if i lost that much marketshare in 1 year.

Also like aznpxdd has pointed out, the PSP does not lack very good games and there are more to add to that list now if you ask my opinion, a lot of people live in the past when the PSP did have a lack of good games and felt stung by sony which i can understand.

Im loving both the ds and the psp atm especially with the DSs cool new looks.

22 and 19, why does every keep saying that PSP's games suck? Everyone has different taste in games, just because you don't like the games on a particular system doesn't mean it sucks. Both are great systems that are aimed at different audiences.

All systems rely on their exclusive titles. How many of that list for the PSP can be bought for other systems? How many of the DS titles?

The only ones that are more or less the same on the console are the sports games (both baseball games, tiger woods, and [i think] the wrestling game), xmen legends 2, and tony hawk. The rest are original.

Mega man powered up is a remake, but it got a complete graphical overhaul, new game modes, and a level editor so i hardly think that can be considered the same.
