The DSi shatters and fragments, which is more effective at maiming and disabling a target. On the other hand, the N97 remains whole, for greater penetration through tough surfaces. Both, however, are fun to look at.
Far from an honest ballistics test, the shoot(ing), staged by French gaming magazine Amusement, was just an opportunity to snap a few stunning photos. Which is fine! And which they did!
So, where's the video? Update: Yeah, you guys are right—the black one is an N97, not a PSP. Still though!
I think all gaming systems should be tested in this manner!
One is shot through wafer board while the other through sheet rock...testing bias.
Maybe we should ask the Mythbusters to do a definitive study?
Mythbusters are about as far from actual scientific testing as you can get. I use for my example as to why they are baseless in fact the episode where they tested the myth that rear wheel drive cars provide better traction on icy roads in reverse. They had one of their unqualified assistants ask for a ride after the first of two tests in a car, thus altering its traction and suspension capabilities. I don’t know how anybody takes them seriously. Sorry if this seems like a rant, but I hate to see seemingly intelligent people rely on them for anything other than mindless entertainment.
Well, given that the above is not a serious test of anything of any consequence and it involves destruction and mayhem, I immediately thought of Adam and Jamie. ;-)

Touché.
