As much as I like my PSP, it still doesnt have any good games lined up for it yet. The crap thing about this device is that yes 15-22 games launched with it, but how many of them did you REALLY want?
EA sports games that you can get cheaper for the ps2? I'll pass.

Lumines and mercury are great, MGA! was a unique and great idea and all, but it's freaking hard and not really something I can play for a few minutes and then quit. I havent played wipeout, NFSU, Ridge Racer, or Twisted metal yet, but i've heard good things about all of them. It seems to me that if it werent for the puzzlers and racing games this thing would be a dud so far (speaking from a gaming p.o.v.) I dont see any innovative and interesting titles lined up for the PSP in the near future.

On a somewhat related note the DS is no angel in my eyes either. Thier library so far (stateside) is pretty weak. I'm lucky enough to import things quite frequently, so there are lots of good japanese games coming out, but that doesnt excuse Nintendo of America for riding thier reputation in the handheld market. My girlfriend owns the system, and even though i want one too, I wont buy one until nintendogs and animal crossing come out stateside. That being said, I doubt there are a lot of people like me who will wait for such wierd titles to emerge for a system until they purchase it. It seems like people will put up with mediocre crap on any console because they dont have the willpower to wait until something they really want comes out. Truth be told,that's proally why I wont have too many PSP titles. Sony is taking the same approach with their handheld that they did with thier console. I really bought it for the multimedia capabilites. Heck I almost bought an NGage for the phone too..

Aaanyway..
If you have a DS some good titles to look out in the future are:
Electroplankton (import at this point)
Animal Crossing DS (in development)
Viewtiful Joe Scratched (in development)
Katamari Damacy DS (in development)
MarioKart DS (in development)
Nintendogs (in development)
WarioWare Touched (released)
Yoshi Touch and Go (released)

Anyone have a list of PSP games that ould interest me based on these above titles? I think I read some rumors about an Alien Hominid port, but I forget what system it would be for.
