The entertainment market was divided, once again, in the year 2004 when Nintendo DS saw daylight and few months later, when PSP came out (to play) and to take a bite from Nintendo's success. The eager fans received with a lot of enthusiasm the new Nintendo console, which succeeded to create a new game addiction, having as advantage the fact that it appeared first on the market. Although the original PSP was received well by the public, it did not succeed to surpass Nintendo in sales, up to the arrival of the Slim & Lite version, which conquered the fans with its slim body and multimedia possibilities. One major difference between the two of them is the appearance. Even if the Nintendo DS is lighter - having a weight of 300 grams - it has a rough an unfinished aspect, in comparison to PSP's 309 grams and smooth finish. After the aspect part, when it comes to being a game console, it's all about the screen size. In this case, Nintendo's 3 inch screens can not really compete with PSP's 4.3 inch screen. It is only fair to mention that one of Nintendo's 2 screens is a touch screen, which can offer a higher level of interactivity between the console and the user. The music and video features are other two important elements which distinguish a technology from another. If we can talk about these 2 features in PSP, we can not mention them when it comes to DS, as Nintendo did not initially provide them. All these empty holes in the DS, required some filling and some attention. So in 2006 a lighter version appeared on the market with only the name - Lite (without "Slim"). Later on, in 2008 the third generation appeared - Nintendo DSi, wanting to reconquer the lost grounds. The latter version succeeds to be apart from a portable game console, a multimedia device, thanks to its two - 0.3 mega pixel cameras, the incorporate voice recorder and the music player. Moreover, the DSi version can brag with its two 3.25 inch screens and its thinner body - with 12% thinner than the Slim version. With all these improvements, Nintendo has become a stronger opponent for PSP and a valuable choice on the entertainment market. So, which to choose? Which suits the client's needs best and also his personal preferences. Either way, both consoles are entertaining, competitive and a good reason for playing games.

Branding is no longer simply about visual appeal (or the cherry in the apple pie example, as given in my earlier article). Unfortunately, many graphic design firms who position themselves as advertising agencies believe that branding your corporate identity is all about developing great looking visual solutions. However, there is much much more to branding than just looking good. Particularly in this web 2.0 era, where a powerful web presence has become a vital ingredient of your branding strategy, developing the right media mix holds the key to building a powerful brand equity. In other words, a right media mix would mean: • Creative design solutions (the design, color, and content of your ads, marketing collateral and website enhance your brand equity, attract customers, and generate sales) • Viral marketing (vitally important in today’s age of social networking, tagging, podcasting, blogs, forums, wikis and what have you) • Television commercial production, print media advertising (traditional media cannot be overlooked) • Strategic films (have become necessary elements of roadshows, exibhitions and other promotional campaigns) • Corporate video production (a very important tool for branding your corporate identity) • Direct marketing (marketing collaterals need to be just as effective and resonant with the overall branding scheme as the communicate directly with the customer) • Outdoor advertising (hoardings, roadshows, participations in business fairs, exhibitions, etc) There are some interactive advertising agencies that have recognized the need of the hour - developing creative design solutions that employ user-centric investigation and involve critical and systematic thinking. User-centric means understanding of needs and priorities of end user; the clients' customers, their channel partners, users, and brand communities. So if you want to register your brand as one that is synonymous with customer loyalty, you must develop a complete package, keeping the customer as the prime objective and organizing product stories around the way they prefer to learn about, compare, select and confirm purchases, connecting brands and their experiences.
