Its marginal; IMO, especially given that DS has outsold PSP by 100,000 in the last 5 weeks. BTW more accurate 2005 totals in Japan so far are PSP 785,856, DS 736,178 which is even more marginal.
And that comment wasn't redundant, it was worth saying since it was relivant. Dont see why you'd 'give me shit' for saying something that's worth saying.
As I said I haven't contradicted what TY said or said anything about a final judgment. Just said that PSP has a long way to go to catch DS, doesn't mean PSP is selling poorly.
Being called a nonce with a smilie face after it counts as an insult to you?
Stop assuming that people can read your mind or that people here know you. You and your friends might call each other nonces all day long and laugh and to you thats friendly. Just like I could call my friends tossers and laugh and it would be taken in a friendly way. But when you call someone who you don't know a nonce it will be taken as an insult, that shouldnt suprise you, especially if they know the real meanin of the word. Putting a laughing face next to it doesn't make it look like your being friendly either. Laughing can be taken as friendly or insulting.
Ahahaha, what? You really call people a "nonce" when you want to call them a child molester? Are you serious?
Where do you think it gets you when you post exaggerated laughing at the start of your posts? It makes you look like a silly kid laughing at other people's opinions. Who said I call anyone a nonce as well? I don't need to use the word to know its meaning. Look at see colons link above. It explains where the word nonce comes from. Its an abbreviation of a prison term that evolved into a word for child molesters.
And as I already said.. the most common (in fact only) meaning I've ever heard it used as is a very light, joking payout. To get all worked up about that and make claims about how I "got off lightly" is a bit OTT. I'll be more careful in future if that's all it takes to offend you.
How am I easily offended becayse I knew the meaning of the word and assumed you meant its real meaning (not a crazy assumption is it)? The way you and your friends use a word and its real meaning are two different things. I've called my friends freaking idiots lots of times and its taken as a joke. But I wouldn't expect you to take it that way or anyone else I didn;t know.
I can accept that you didn't mean to call me a child molester
now, because you've told me that. But you need to accept that I had every right to be angry at your comment at the time. Stop blaming other people for knowing what this word means instead of your own use of it.
what gets me about this handheld battle is that people are so polarized about the whole thing. i've seen sony fans already claiming the death of nintendo, and nintendo fans claiming that the DS has better 3D graphics than the PSP. a 2 console system has meant great things for the living room, i'm excited about what it's going to do for the handheld space.
