alright, so heres the dilema. im getting ready to frop $500 bucks at best buy. I'm go to get the Wii for sure, but my problem is weather I should get an ipod over the ds or vice versa. It mUST be one or the other. I heard that Pokemon Diamond and Pearl have that special online feature and I love to pwn ppl. I havent owned a pokemon game since gold version and kind of lost track after ruby and emerald.Anyways, which one do you think is more worth it? DS or ipod.
besides...how are the new pokemon anyways...whats the total amount? i had 243 outta 251 in gold, whats the new max?

I would get an iPod. I use my iPod alot more than my DS. But as you can see I'm an Apple fan so thats obviously going to be what I say.

Well, you're probably going to get a lot more out of an iPod.
I use it all the time... on the bus, at school, when I'm just bored. Also, you can download iPodLinux and Rockbox and play some games on there but they definitely aren't DS quality. :P
But I believe you can play gameboy games somehow. o_O

Get an MP3 player, not I-pod and with all the money you saved, get a DS and a couple of games. 500 dollars could easily cover both.
Btw, it's WHETHER

Get the iPod. The advantage they have over other portable media players is the massive quantity of available accessories, and great third-party support.

I prefer the iPod over other MP3 players because of the click wheel. Its just so convenient and is fast and easy. Plus you can't beat the style or ease of use of an iPod.

personally, i still refuse to buy an ipod, or any mp3 player for that matter. if i listen to music at home, i use my computer or stereo. if i'm going somewhere, i burn some cd's for my car. i just think its a waste of money for an mp3 player.

Roll a ****ing dice or toss a coin.
You can listen to music and play games on your iPod.
(
I'm still livid from the ****ing carriage sh!t in Zelda.
So don't come near me !)

Erm...
Just where do you think you'll get your Wii from? There's that problem of the ongoing shortage!
By the time you buy a Wii you may be able to afford both an iPod and DS!!
