Anyone watch the live video of Nintendo's press release? They unveiled some darn cool stuff:

Nintendo DS (They showed it running a version of Metroid Prime for it)
Metroid Prime 2 (Mmmm.. graphics)
The Legend of Zelda (OMG YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S NOT CEL SHADED EITHER!!!!!!)
Resident Evil 4 (This title looks AWESOME. I can't wait to play it and blow off some zombie's extremities.)

I imagine there will be even more surprises at E3. Cool

Ah I saw the Legend of Zelda thing at least!

Eeee! It looks so awesome. I almost cried when I saw it....

..not that I disliked the Windwaker, but it seems that a Zelda game with these kinds of extremely wonderful graphics is what I've always been waiting for.

I agree. Nintendo does "think" more in designing their systems then Sony does.

No, the earlier pictures I saw of it were white. I guess you might be able to choose which color you want... or they just decided black was nicer than white.

...there will indeed be multiple colors available for the PSP... I think there's a white one...

from what I know, the PSP should crush DS in a humiliating fashion... unfortunate really...

hmm... we have people like YOU to thank for the fact that Nintendo remains with us today... Nintendo has enough die-hard fans to keep it going for years to come, and they are very much aware of this...
However, the future is looking bleak for Miyamoto and cohorts as almost all of Nintendo's third party developers and franchises have been bought out. ('Rareware" being among the greater losses.) Thus they focus their attention primarily on giving their stale franchises a graphical facelift.
Being a Nintendo veteran myself it almost saddens me to think of the outcome of the warring handheld consoles...
The DS will doubtlessly sell quite well for a period of time, but it is my opinion that Nintendo... is finished...

You can actually view media on the PSP. I was watching G4 - E3 yesterday and they showed it.

IMO the PSP looks much better than the DS. It has a slick design and a much wider screen. The DS just looks like a joke with its "dual screens" lol Laughing
