You're not the only one. There is a DS thread at the other place where I echo the same sentiment.

It's a mini-version of a system originally released in 1995, for crying out loud. It is capable of 1995 era graphics. The PSP is in several respects better hardware than the PS2, which is 5 years fresher than the N64.

The people in that thread are going gaga over the touch-sensitive screen control. I played Metroid DS in EBX last night as it was extremely unintuitive. I like how tacojohn compares the N64 to the PSOne as if to imply the PSP is based on the PSOne...

It's a shame that it's only the old-school Nintendo fans that actually see the DS's impending disappointment. I remember receiving my original NES Deluxe Edition for Christmas in 1984. Tacojohn would have been 2 years old. Gyromite, Gumshoe, Mach Rider...I doubt he's ever played any of those games...
