    The DS is cool and has a ton of great games:
    • New Super Mario Bros.
    • Star Fox Command
    • Mario Kart DS
    • Mario and Luigi Partners in Time
    • Brain Age
    • WarioWare Touched!
    • Animal Crossing: Wild World
    • Nintendogs
    • Meteos
    • Advance Wars

    Of course, it all depends on what type of games you like...

        I've only played the free demo version that came with my DS and it seemed pretty good. Not being a huge fan of the Metroid franchise I might not be the best person to judge it though, but I liked what I saw...
  • It cost like, $8 to download (which nearly made me choke) but it's all I'll ever need.

    For no reason at all, I'd say go the DS route, but wait until you hear from a PSP owner or two...

      I got the TOTALLY ROCKIN 'Doom RPG' on my phone, which is da bomb, and the impetus for all this. I totally want something similar.

        Glad to hear it! Unless you care about movies (in which case the only option is the PSP) I think the DS can almost fit in a pocket... making it the hands down winner.

        I used to have some games on a palm pilot (step up from a cell, but step down from a real handheld system). But the palm turned out to be a pain in the arse for basically phone numbers and addresses; something I can keep in a phone (and my phone isn't top of the line, either, but it does have color).

        So now I'm down to one device thats a phone,
  • Nintendo DS with:

    Clubhouse Games
    Mario Kart DS
    Advance Wars DS
    Brain Age (primarily for the Sudoku)

    Should take care of all your needs.......
