Sony says the DSi is for kids - console
(hx) 06:45 PM CEST - Apr,06 2009 - Post a comment / read (3)
Released on Friday, DSi boasts a number of features new to the DS range, including cameras, AAC sound file support and its own online store, but Sony's clearly not impressed, firing out the following statement to media.
If Nintendo is really committed to reaching a broader, more diverse audience of gamers beyond the "kids" market that they've always engaged, there isn't much new with the DSi to support that. Significant gamer demographic groups are being ignored, and there continues to be limited opportunities for games from external publishers to do well on the DSi.

Compare that with the PSP platform, where we have many blockbuster franchises from our publishing partners launching this year, representing a wide variety of genres and targeting diverse demographics. Games such as Rock Band Unplugged from MTV Games, Assassin's Creed from Ubisoft, Dissidia Final Fantasy from Square Enix, and Hannah Montana from Disney demonstrate the commitment that publishers have to the PSP. From our own first-party studios, we're launching unique versions of LittleBigPlanet and MotorStorm, and we're also planning a steady stream of downloadable games -- both new titles and PSone classics -- to add to the content that PSP owners can already purchase wirelessly through PlayStation Store.

Hmm, it may be kind of oriented for kids but there is a lot of adult oriented software for DS. I play mine occasionally. I'm no kid. LOL! I also have a PSP. I'd like to get the internet browser for the DS, man that would make it quite powerful.

Well,i just shows you how far off the ball Sony can be. :?:
The DS(i) is massively promoted for adults (you've seen the ads?) I myself have a DS, i'm in my 40's, the wife has just bought the DSI (traded in her DS) the Wi Fi is very good, the browser takes a bit of getting used to, although GameGuru RSS feeds are brilliant on it ;)
Both of us play GTA: Chinatown (each) and we have a shed load of games each. I also own a PS3 BUT i don't own a PSP. Why? Well, what i can buy on PS3 i don't want to own on a PSP. Whereas, on the DS it WONT be on another format -which is why it's unique, that and it's excellent battery life.
Edit:
The DSI plays GTA smoother than my DS and the larger screen is a bonus.

The DSi looks good but we've only had the DS for just over a year. I think I am more to look into getting the browser added on before I have to get rid of my DS. It was the biggest upset I had with the DS that they were not selling the browser. The DS with a browser would be deadly. Wife only got PSP for games she doesn't play on PS3 and PC. The PSP also has a pretty decent browser which makes up for the lack of browser on my DS. I use my Blackberry to cruise the net when I need it. You mentioned the DSi has excellent WiFi, which is true, it's amazing how far I can go and still reach my secure WiFi network.
