Sony announces 99 PSP developers; Nintendo immediately announces 100 for the DS

[Trauma-san]

Aw, look, they're already fighting.

Sony held a press conference the first day of E3, and said they had an incredible 99 developers signed on to work on games for the amazing new PSP handheld device.

The next day, Nintendo, at their press conference, announces that they have 100 developers currently developing games for the Nintendo DS.

LOL

Anyways, both systems look great, here's some pictures of the Nintendo games coming up.  wow.


-----------------------------------------------------------------

"Mario 64X4" (four player version for DS of Mario 64








"Metroid Prime: Hunters"






"Super Mario Brothers DS" (All new Mario game)

[Shallow]

I don't see either one really taking off. The graphics look great and all but I don't think there is a market for three hand helds. The original Gameboy, or whatever verson they have now will be on top for a long time. People have a hard time taking in new things, particularly when those new things cost more. Besides, hi res games never really work on small screens.

[CharlieBrown]

I wasn't interested in either of these machines at all, but 4 player super mario 64!!! Shit, i'll be buying four myself just to make sure i can play it with my mates. And that new mario game looks sweeeeeeeeeeeet.

[Trauma-san]

^ You don't even HAVE to buy 4 carts anymore... Nintendo's got a new thing, where you can wirelessly play head-to head, and you actually download a portion of the game to your own DS so you only need 1 game for 4 people to play, even with no wires.  CRAZY SHIT.  

[Nutty]

I'm sure alot of ppl will be interested, I am (PSP).

[Black_Smoke]

Yea im also interested in gettin one too,not sure which one yet tho

[Montana00]

i expect the nintendo to do well due to its name soley. i know alot of people who own Gameboy sp's. and since the DS willl be backwards compatible i cant guaranntee they will get the ds

but people new to the whole handheld (me including) will have an actual choice. i expect it to be the same type of thing for the cube ps2 rivalry.

people who prefer there ps2 will probably buy a psp. if i had a choice and was gonna buy one id get the psp. im not into all that mario samsus star fox shit.

i xpect sony to release mature type games simalir to the ps2

[Trauma-san]

Yeah, that's true.  ... becuase we all know people want to feel mature when THEY'RE PLAYING A FUCKING VIDEO GAME.  

[Montana00]

but i gots to admit.........those screens for mario look really good.

shit they resemble mario 64. i loved that game.

i havent heard anything about the psp but ive heard good things of this DS

[Trauma-san]

I know man, i'm just fuckin' with you.  Why can't people buy both? I'm sure most will.  

[Montana00]

I know man, i'm just fuckin' with you.  Why can't people buy both? I'm sure most will.  

psssh not me. im guessing these suckers are gonna cost a whole lot. any news?

im gonna get (in sony fashion) 200$ or more

i dunno about nintento there prices always fluctuate

[Trauma-san]

Supposedly 149 for the DS.  

[MANBEARPIG.]

people say they dont like nintendo because the games are not "mature".....those people are stupid I've noticed I've had wayyyy more fun playing nintendo than a sony system.  Fuck a mature game, give me a fun game.

[Montana00]

i dunno i like em both but if i had to choose id take the ps2 over the cube. but i will say

no system will ever match the n64. Mario 64 was one of the best games ever made (sunshine was ok nothing special)

Ocarina of Time was in my opinion is in the top 3 of top games of all time majoras mask was awesome too.

then there was the original mario party that game is awesome with 4 people.

[smerlus]

if nintendo would just make a mature game, it would silence all the critics....
