I like how nintendo is actually already starting an online service plan unlike the decision that sealed their fate with the gamecube. I also liked how they already said their “revolution” console is gonna feature the same thing, so their online plan looks good already.
However, it seems that sony isn’t doing too bad either, but only the future can really tell what will happen. I have no doubt in my mind that sony will try to strike a deal with gamespy as well, or feature something similar.
I like both companies, but there’s a little i hate of each company as well. Sony products have shitty quality, compared to other companies, even with so much power. EX: PS2
Nintendo just makes some stupid ass business decisions sometimes, but their 1st party game is top tier.
So like i said, only time can tell, although i do favor nintendo more, just because i’ve liked them from the start.
fireballs and specials are damn near impossible to do in succession on the psp and it makes your thumb raw as hell…the dpad (for 2d fighters) seems damn near impossible to use…
Now it’s time for the “Of course you were not going to be able to buy the PSP as soon as it came out Dumb Ass” post.
Well, I picked up the game today. Doesn’t look like I’ll be able to pick up a PSP this week. I’ve been instructed at my local store who said they will not be getting any anytime soon (last week they told me they would get a few but they got zero)if I want a copy to stand outside 550 Madison Ave in New York City and wait on a long line on this day where it’s raining and snowing until they start selling PSPs at midnight to the first 500 on line. So um, no.
I tried to pre-order 2 months ago, when I went to pre-order a PSP they told me that I would not recieve it in the first shipment but the third or fourth. Basically when everybody else has it.
Sorry, needed to rant. The box for Darkstalkers PSP is pretty…
Heh. I’m picking mine up from my local game store in 40 minutes!
The guy got them on tuesday, and set one aside from me, seeing as I’m one of his best customers… He also put aside Darkstalkers, Wipeout Pure and Metal Gear Acid, just for me, without me asking
Stupidest thing ive read all month. Ive tried it, and its no different from gripping a normal controller. “oh noes, i cant be dextrous with a controller!!!11111”.
I swung by 550 Madison Ave. out of shear curiosity around 8:00 PM to see who was outside waiting for a PSP. Out of the 500 systems they had available there were only 200 people lined up outside and them Sony bastards didn’t even let them wait indoors. It was freezing, windy, raining, snowing, and hailing almost simoultaneously, one of the worst weather days NY has seen in a long time. Of course I didn’t get on line because I enjoy living without an a hundred degree fever. If any of them got a PSP that night they deserve it. Still, chances are they didn’t even have 500 and some of those people left empty handed as these things usually go.

Actually, the DS has tons of third party support. Square Enix announced six exclusive RPGs for the DS, and they’re working with Nintendo to get it online.
thats not true dont make empty statements. square enix has no plans of using thier playonline or any online service for nintendo.
From IGN, an snip of an interview with Miyamoto concerning their partnership w/Square Enix:
Returning to the topic of Square Enix, Miyamoto moved on to the internet side of gaming, asking,“Square Enix brings up thoughts of the internet. We’re thinking of doing something where the DS connects to the internet, but what do you have planned?”. To this, Kawazu responded with, “Moving the stuff that we currently have running onto the DS would be difficult from a hardware standpoint, but if we were to try our mobile contents on the DS, we feel the network threshold would drop.” Miyamoto managed the last word, offering, “Preparing a wireless LAN network can be difficult, but if you just have that, all you have to do is turn on the power and you can instantly play the game.”
Sounds like they got plans to me. The Magic Box also reported a similar story regarding SE and Nintendo going online w/DS. If I can find it too, I’ll post it. Moral of the story being:
Don’t talk trash on somebody’s post unless you KNOW you’re right.
