to be fair i looked at both the ds and the psp, in comparison, and i found the best site todo it was www.gamespot.com, whihc has pictures movies and specs of both.
Style : sony easily wins this as always, in the console market it was faced with a suitcase sized box and a little cube :S
Graphics : Again psp gets this one for having close to ps2 graphics, as seen on a woobly camera video of the psp in action playing need for speed. Whereas the Ds isn't really a huge leap, an old remake of ridge racer, looked like a slighly pixelated version of the first ridge racer on ps1.
Games: In some places the same games are being made. But each one has some games of its own the Ds has metroid prime, with quake 1 style graphics, and the psp has a very nice looking GT 4. All together there is a good variety for both the Ds and the psp. Although i still think the cartoon style games nitendo make are childish.(yet more pokemon games planned, ughhhh :S)
I belive this was a fairer way to choose between them, the battery life issue with the psp seems to have been solved with new technology, and the Ds touch screen seems to be a bit of a novelty, most games using it to display maps.
