That issue is not a 'bug' that is unique to the PSP. The DS and Nintendo have the same stance. All LCDs can have this problem. My friends Alienware laptop had three dead pixels, my laptop as one, and the monitor I'm using right now there are two dead pixels. I don't notice them ever, they are near the edges and with most usage they just don't stand out. This is a manufacturing problem that is getting better, but even with exacting manufacturing standards the problems still appear.

That said, I'm planning to get a PSP.

2) the graphics are way better. DS graphics look like old N64 graphics while PSP looks almost like a PS2.
3)the games for the DS depend on the touch screen way too much. Metroid Prime: Hunters is way to hard to play, having to use the touch screen all of the time. but games on the PSP are so much easier to play
4)THE PSP CAN PLAY MOVIES AND MUSIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the only downfall that the PSP has is that the games take so long to load. BUT it is worth the wait for the graphics and the game play of the games.


that is just my opinion don't be offended and if you love Nintendo and hate Sony don't hate me because i would rather have a PSP then a DS. this is just my opinion and is no need to get mad and give negative reps for. THIS IS ONLY MY OPINION AND WILL RESPECT YOUR OPINION IF YOU RESPECT MINE!!!

I'm going to have to agree with you on that one......
The DS as of now does have horrible games.....
But as soon as good games come out..
like
- World Championship poker: Deluxe series - Lets you use the Mic to talk... Similar to X-Box live communication in Halo 2... plus you get to customize your character and play Texas Hold'em ( or 11 other card games) with up to 6 people!

- Need for speed underground 2 - Yes its a remake but it lets you have more customizing options like drawling your own car logos on the touch screen!

I think when the good games start rollin' in DS will be awesome!
