-our handheld buddies, aging.


Well, it was definitely the hottest and most anticipated "handheld war" that racked-up the gaming industry for the last 4 years. The DS vs. PSP feud was indeed a history maker, the two systems had their fair share of "ups and downs", but they had always maintained their spree with the recent outbreak of newly-developed games for each handheld console.

I read a topic regarding the "deterioration" of both the PSP and the DS. And, I'll have to agree that things always come to age, and so does our two handheld buddies.

New games come and go, Nintendo and Sony had their share of fun. Now it's Apples' turn to be in the spotlight.

Here's a topic I just found:

Apple: DS and Sony PSP are in the Past.

In a move that will most likely ruffle a few gamers' feathers, the head of the iPhone's marketing, Greg Joswiak, recently claimed that the iPhone is the future of gameplay, while other handheld consoles (namely the DS and PSP) are "in the past" ...

iPhone marketing big shot Greg Joswiak has pegged iPhone as "the future of gameplay", while Sony and Nintendo's dedicated gaming portables are "in the past".
"There are already so many games and as we look at it, to us it really seems [The iPhone] is the future of gameplay. Whereas a lot of these devices [Nintendo DS and Sony PSP] are more in the past," he boldly stated.


Uh-oh! ^_^
