New Nintendo DS

Post by Hobofreak »

This year Nintendo is releasing the DSi. From what I've read it's a DS with a camera, bigger screens, and instead of a GBA slot it has a SD card slot to store pictures on downloads.

Good thing I didnt buy a ds lite. I'll just get one of these.


I think it is stupid that Nintendo is releasing different versions of the ds. they should invest into a next gen portable piece that beats the psp all around. I'm not saying the psp is better at all. But the visuals and media portion are superior. I'm sure the DSi will be good for media though.

Its not Nintendos interest to be BETTER thats the problem. Nintendo wants to appeal to EVERYONE, not just the better market or whatever, but everyone, thats why they got mario party for everybody and no more heroes or madworld for the folks who like blood and gore.

Yeah that seems to be their goal. Oh well, I guess that's where they fit in now.
