I think PSP will ultimately be king. DS is nice and all, but you really can't argue with the power of the PSP - nor the titles that have been announced. Gran Turismo, Metal Gear... dare I even say it: a GTA game... those are the games that sell systems. And the fact that it's a direct port will appeal to a great many people. Hell, you're talking to someone who owns two copys of GTA 3 and two copys of Vice City - and if they port them to PSP, i'll buy those as well.

And as for price... well, I was one of those people who bought a PS2 shortly after release; I paid close to a thousand guilders for it - around $500 - and so did millions of other people. For some people, price isn't an issue. It isn't for me.

Sure, you won't sell tens of millions at first, but once the early adopters like me get their hands on them, prices will no doubt fall rapidly.
