Thank you roto. Now that I'm here, we can form the Nintendo News Tag Team.

Iwata did say that the Wii will be sold at a slight loss, but it's nowhere near the levels of the 360 or PS3 I'm sure. Perhaps they're including a 2nd Wiimote/Nunchuck, maybe that's the 'loss'

I'm not sure if this was sarcasm, so I'll consider it ignorance. To avoid a completely one-sided post, I'll just list Pros and Cons of both. I personally own both systems (2 DSes actually... original and an imported blue DS lite). Some of the DS's pros are probably mirrored in the Wii as well.

--DS--
Pros:
-Immediate access to over 1000 GBA games
-All of Nintendo's franchises have/will soon have real games for it (New Pokemon RPG coming, Zelda later this year)
-Totally fresh, original games
-'New' ways to play old games
-Free, easy to use WiFi
-Numerous high quality, pure fun games
-Innovative and intuitive, taking games in a new direction
-Long battery life (even longer with the DS lite)
-DS lite's screen is super bright
-Superior buttons/d-pad (especially on the DS lite)
-Cheaper than its primary competition
-Zero load time

Cons:
-Some games are shallow and gimmicky
-Graphics won't be as pretty as some of the better looking games on PSP



--PSP--
Pros:
-It's exactly what it says: a Portable Playstation. Same games
-"Sexy"
-Higher graphical potential
-Can play movies right out of the box
-Starting to get some good original, quality games
-Good homebrew scene

Cons:
-It's exactly what it says: a Portable Playstation. Port-zilla
-Some of these ports feel awkward without a 2nd analog
-The analog that's there is awkward anyway. The Directional buttons aren't the greatest either
-A lot of the games suck
-Battery life isn't so hot
-Sometimes excruciating load times
-You pay a premium for the extra features (more expensive)
-The UMD format, in terms of movies, is dying. I'm not sure what movie studios outside of Sony are still releasing new movies on UMD (If BluRay goes the way of Betamax and UMD, Sony could be in trouble)

As a game system, the DS(lite) outshines the PSP (literally). It's different, it's cheaper, it's new, it's fun, and definitely durable. I dropped my DS countless times, and my DS lite quite a few times already, and it works perfectly. I'm afraid to drop my PSP for fear it'll shatter into a million little fingerprint-smudged pieces. DS has access to way more games, especially with the backwards compatibility. The DS/GBA also has the ability to play videos and music with another piece of software, so that already negates one of PSP's advantages.
