Lots of kids these days wont remember the Virtua Boy so id say DS cause people will laugh at you.

PDA owners will laugh at you for owning a wannabe PDA.

GBA SP/PSP owners will laugh at you for having a portable gaming device wannabe.

Navigators will laugh at you for having a small map screen.

Dentists will laugh at you for wasting your money.

Owning a VB = hardcore street cred?

 

[Deg]

VB is way cooler.

 

[imastalker co.]

i wanted to be the first guy to do a "wanna be troll" joke, but i couldn't think of anything good.

Virtua Boy. Easily. I played that thing at the E3 where it was first shown off, and everyone there was like "What the F*ck is Nintendo thinking with this thing?" And I wouldn't have ever called the VB a "portable". Luggable maybe.

 

[Baron Aloha]

Nintendo DS, especially after the PSP hits (speaking for North America).

 

[chespace]

PSP is more embarassing.

"What, you lug that big thing around for MP3s??"

"Why the fuck would you want to put your PlayStation 2 in your pocket? Play it on your 70" plasma at home!111"

 

[MrAngryFace]

I wont trust PSP until the smaller more dependable PSPee is released

I don't think anyone I know would laugh about owning a DS. A Virtua Boy... maybe, but there's a better chance they would have no idea what it is (unless they're into games themselves).

 

[lexi]

Defintely not the Virtual Boy, that thing makes a great Halloween costume.

 

[Scrow]

bored? you must be.

 

[FeedMeAStrayCat]

~sighs~ Wow. Obviously the Virtual Boy because it bombed pretty badly, quite different from how the DS is currently.. how do you say.. selling like hotcakes, I believe.

But I own both. And the Virtual Boy wasn't that bad of a system.. I have Mario Tennis and Galactic Pinball for it..

 

[SerialNumber]

I thing the thread should have been renamed to "which is more embarassing to play". :lol

I say the VB for sure, hands down.

The N.DS doesn't bother me one bit. It feels like and looks like a PDA.

 

[MrAngryFace]

Yeah, if I released only 2 of my turds for sale, and somehow managed to sell both, I would consider them to be selling like hotcakes too.

Old Nintendo tactic. Limit supply then scream bestseller when people cant find any. Saw it with various systems of their make. The only good things Nintendo with the exception of the godly SP, existed before the N64
