Video games have been a part of my entertainment life since the eighties. And the system I began playing these games on was the original 8 Bit NES.
Games such as: The Legend Of Zelda, Final Fantasy and Super Mario Bros. drew me in with their addictive and fun gameplay. And when it came to portable systems, then, I chose the Nintendo Gameboy system. So when the folks at Nintendo introduced its dual screen Nintendo DS and Sony its PSP, the matter of which portable system to get next weighed on my mind.
Should I get the Sony PSP or the Nintendo DS? After careful consideration and a little research into both portable units, it came down to the kinds of games I enjoy playing.
It did not matter to me which system had more high tech features than the other. And since I already had a liking for games such as: The Legend Of Zelda, the occasional Mario Bros. and games from the Metroid series, the obvious choice for me was the Nintendo DS.
I like its dual screen, stereo speakers, microphone, backward capability, you can play GBA games on it, and if you want to save your progress in a game, you do not need to clutter up the system by using a Memory Card.
For one other unique feature about the way Nintendo makes its games, is that for video game systems like the NES, SNES, Gameboy, Gameboy Advance and the Nintendo DS, the game cartridges come equipped with save features or save files.
Maybe someday, I will consider getting a Sony PSP, but for right now, I still enjoy playing some of my favourite games on the Nintendo DS.
