The biggest problem I have with this is the fact that it is basically the same hardware, with a few additions that are really nice, and developers will use it. But all those people who bought a DS (like me) need to buy another one... unless they decide to release some DS addons that will give us the same functionality.

It just occured to me that because this will have an SD slot and access to a online store they might allow you to play VC games on it and buy VC games for it. Perhaps even introducing the gameboy and gameboy advance into the VC. Obviously on the Snes, NES etc. games would work with the control system but it would be a major selling point in my opinion if they did this.

Interestingly... Japanese, lol. I saw about 4 games I wanted to play, and 10 others that made me go, "WUT? Haha!" Some of those games are so random, its awesome.

Woah! 3D Picross, GOTY!!

I'll probably get one for the online service. But I'll keep my DS Lite; NeoDS is too great to leave behind.

Just stamp a Final Fantasy on the side of one, call it Special and I'll buy it.

@error2k2:
"Was that a new Mario and Luigi game I saw there?"

Looks like Super Mario RPG 2 if you ask me.

@Master Foot:
I think that's the idea - some games will use the new features (probably as gimmicks for the first year or so), but the basic hardware is still the same so that people like you don't HAVE to buy a new system to play new games. They don't want to start over, they want to expand.

My guess is that this is all about a DS VC. Here's hoping that they let us transfer between the Wii and DSi (yeah, right).

Should I still get a DS? When will it be released?

Let me get this straight--they want me to trade my GBA slot for a camera and audio player that doesn't play mp3s (due to licensing dealies, I've read), when my digital camera and PSP can already do those things better? I'll pass, Fox.

I am looking forward to the new WarioWare and Mario & Luigi, though.

I'm not gonna lie. I want one. I've got TWO DSs already, (and two GBAs, and a Game Boy Player for my GameCube...), I won't miss the GBA slot.

Whoa, what game is that at 2:58?

Is it a new IP, cause I've never seen a format like that save for the Tales of and Draglade series.

I'm actually really excited for the DSi for its compact size and brighter screen. I don't mind upgrading my original DS -

I'm glad Nintendo isn't MAKING us buy a new system, it's pretty much optional at this point.
