With their Playstation 2 still holding sales pretty high and the PSP being a min port of that system makes for a good boiler. DS only being a port of the 64 is a downer but Nintendo is and will always be about pure gameplay. For the price of PSP, GamePro suggest it will most likely cost the price of the Playstation 2 on its first release. PSP already stated to have mp3 playback, wireless internet, and video playback will truelly make Nintendo use all of DS's features to the max. SquareEnix has a tough situation know though but PSP will be big for its UMD release of FF7:Advent Children. Nintendo finally has a new competitor. The battle has begun and the war is far from over.
