Nintendo's new little handheld hit store shelves yesterday. It has a bunch of new features including cameras and downloadable games. But is it worth it? Personally, I'm going to wait awhile before picking one up. What about you? Planning on getting one soon or are you going to wait too?
As for games, I'm planning on picking up The Godfather II and The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athenathis week. The Godfather II has some really fun multiplayer modes and I've been waiting for my second chance to finally beat Escape from Butcher Bay.

Hamza Aziz, Destructoid's Community Director, has been here since day one. He was born when a tiger coughed up a hairball into a pool of ooze. He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

Rag Doll Kung Fu , FUCK YEAH ! The PC original was one of the most fun games I ever played (the control was awfull though) , and a sequel with better graphics , controls and gameplay is all I can dream of ...
There is really nothing good coming out. The next game I'm anticipating is Sacred 2 but that is still far away. For this week I will probably just pick up the Versus mode dlc for RE5
I might end up buying a DSi way later down the line, it seems pretty cool but not wort the $150 or whatever it's worth. I might pick up another Lite since they might drop the price because the DSi comes out, probably not, though.
Riddick is on buy list alright. I hope the multiplayer is good.
Company of Heroes looks good as well, kind of reminds me of Dawn of war 2, you know, it seems like you only control one tank throughout the whole mission.
But seriously what the hell? Dragon Ball Evolution? There's a game of it now? Good fucking god.
I've been waiting for Godfather 2 too, but it doesn't look so great. Still, I'll splurge and hopefully be surprised. <A HREF="http://www.auto-broker-magic.com/used-escalades.html">escalade fan</A>

I am absolutely erect with anticipation (and sadness) for the Guilty Gear series' swan song, though. Sweet PSP games never hurt.
Oh, and it's amazing.
I'm probably going to get Riddick,
I miss the Corleone family.
In fact, I'ma ring and pre-order it right now - would hate to be let down.
