So I'm feeling the urge for some video games and since I commute everyday I figure I should go for something portable. Now, I know that the new nintendo portable came out, should I buy that or should I wait for Sony's psp? any thoughts? what will have the better games?

Getting both is the only way to go. Trust me on this one.

Now I know why everybody says Japan is so much more expensive than Korea. Very Happy

Actually, I was in line on Saturday! Very Happy

(Oh, and if you're wondering why I'm posting on the Korea forums about this, it's because the ESL Cafe Japan forum isn't nearly as lively or as techy as the Korea one.)

I shall. Smile

Yesterday's post was on DS vs. PSP. Today's will either be my thoughts on the PSP itself or Ridge Racers. I haven't decided yet.

If you're looking to get a Japanese import in Korea, expect to pay through the nose. Online import shops (like Lik-Sang.com) are charging over $500 for the PSP. Plan on seeing similar prices for import units in Korea.
