Guinnes and witouth the phone part since you cant actually make calls with it.
Its got GPRS yes but thats data, the Gizmondo is not a cellphone.

We had a big thread about the PSP and DS a while ago and fact remains that Sony lowered their orders for parts from 16 million to 12 million PSP units while Nintendo increased theirs from 12 million to 18 million units.
These figures are for first 18 months on the market.

Platform adoption is far higher on the DS and it has more games in development and unlike the PSP with regards to games can actually offer new experiences and it seems like for now at lest it is winning on that.
That and the fact that Nintendo while losing the console market has remained a trusted name in the handheld videogame space.
