Isn't the Nintendo DS supposed to have twice that amount of pixels? If so, then the games are going to look SWEET!

A handheld system with a resolution of 1 pixel x 1 pixel would be the/a bomb.

If you're technologically advanced enough to log on to the internet, you should be familiar with the term pixel.

Well, you better know what we're talking about when I'm your boss and I ask you to set the resolutions on my millions of super-computers in my huge company that's worth trillions to 1280x1024

I just saw some of the very first game footage of the PlayStation Portable. Wow! There are no better words to describe it.
The game being shown was called Death Jr., and the graphics looked alot like Zelda: The Wind Waker. Yes, they were fully 3-dimensional, complete with incredible lighting effects and a high resolution. The graphics looked very much like a PS2 game, which is very impressive for a handheld system.
I just hope the PlayStation Portable doesn't cost too much... *crosses fingers*
If this is any indication, the Nintendo DS will also have graphics that look amazing!
The era of true 3-dimensional gaming on handheld systems has arrived! Finally! ============================================
PlayStation Portable or Nintendo DS... Which side are you on? - This is my new signature.

"Finally?" You can never get rid of sprite games; they will have their form!

ARGH. Where will sprite games go now? I was counting on crappy handheld systems that couldn't handle polygons!

In answer to your sig, Mario Maniac, I'm on the Nintendo DS side.

Where will sprite games go? How about...anywhere! People still make 2D games for the powerhouse systems, ie, LOZ: Four Swords (coming for Cube) and Viewtiful Joe (technically not a sprite game, but still 2D sweetness). There is still a niche market for 2D games, and as long as we keep buying them, they will keep coming!....I hope....
This is not a signature.

I realize that there is still a market for 2D games (which is why Game Boy Advance has recieved many popular 2D games). I was just saying that the PSP and Nintendo DS will innovate the gaming industry with their 3D graphics.

That statement made no sense.

The PSP and Nintendo DS are the first handheld gaming systems to display fully 3-dimensional polygonal graphics. This is how they are innovative.

That's not really true either... try first major companies to have accelerated 3D graphics.

Accelerated 3D graphics... What do you mean?
People who like video games should also like Nintendo. People who don''t like Nintendo obviously don''t like video games.
