I personally don't like it at all because I mean why put two screens just enchance one and make it semi bigger and then add more power to it so it can play better games.

Re: The Nintendo DS
 

Well, they say it doesn't have anything to do with the GameBoy, so hopefully we'll get a new gameboy in 2005 anyway. And IF the Nintendo DS is a succes, they can implement features into the next GB.

BTW this isn't the only 'innovative' feature. The rest is gonna be revealed on E3 I guess.. Perhaps they have some more tricks up their sleeve...

Re: The Nintendo DS
 

Did they say that or are you just being psychic?

it was something about the bulk of the information being revealed later, but that could be complete specs, game announcements, price etc yada blam...

I still say it sounds silly... If it's good, well then yay for them, and if it's bad then it'll be good for a laugh...

This time, however, you can't blame any problems on Nintendo's senile ex-president :sneaky:

Re: The Nintendo DS
 

here's one for ya.

Re: The Nintendo DS
 

even with crash's renditions of the NDS i cant imagine it but the way that Fran/Matt (dont know which one) made it.

i think that we'll just have to see for it

i hope that they can get a picture of the NDS before they show it at E3

Re: The Nintendo DS
 

jokes on us, there are no buttons!!!!!!

Re: The Nintendo DS
 

Does the cool blue/purple computer generated atmosphere featured in the background come included?

Re: The Nintendo DS
 

Im sorry 'TheMarioLover' but i dont think you understand what this system is. One its not a sequel to the GBA nor the GC :P . Its a standalone machine, nintendo are using this piece of hardware to test out a new and inovative way of gaming which they said may point to the way the N5 and GBA2 will go!!
BTW where did you get that picture from? > Crash

Re: The Nintendo DS
 

Touch-screen for buttons!

Re: The Nintendo DS
 

that looks kinda ehhh...

Re: The Nintendo DS
 

here is my animation of the DS

Re: The Nintendo DS
 

Moves too fast for me to really see but the CGI looks good.

Re: The Nintendo DS
 

I understand that it's not supposed to be a sequel to either, but your missing my point (I apologize for not being more precise).

I'm saying that if they don't release a new Gameboy to directly compete with the PSP, they're going to lose the handheld market (in my opinion). This is a handheld, whether or not this is the new Gameboy. And if Nintendo is delaying the next Gameboy during this device's lifetime, that's going to be a problem. However, if they're going to be running two handhelds at the same time, they're going to confuse people and possibly shoot themselves in the foot.

I don't know what to say. Everywhere I look I see problems. There are a dozen ways Nintendo could do this and each way I look I see a problem. Only time will tell how Nintendo will do this, but I'll remain skeptical until I see some results.

Re: The Nintendo DS
 

It's funny how everyone is automatically saying Sony is gonna own the handheld market. I'm not saying that as a Ninty fan, but just as a regular non-biased gamer. I mean, yes, Sony is making all these great claims and people are just bouncing left and right saying basically the PSP will be the GOD of handheld. And its being seen by developers also. Hell, its better to have 2 handhelds competing, rather then just one dominating it all. Nintendo has already said that the DS is not the next gameboy, its a product that will have some kind of use which Ninty has yet to specify more directly. And who knows, nintendo will probably unveil their next handheld and console at E3. Then right after Nintendo announces the next handheld, everyone will say Nintendo is doomed no matter what Nintendo announces about the next handheld. everyone will say the PSP still owns and that nintendo has no chance. But meh, I just want to see how my prediction turns out:p
and yeah, im prepared for any bashing I'm about to receive for saying what I just said.

Re: The Nintendo DS
 

Im curious as to where you got that screen from. Touchscreen buttons huh? Hmmmmm...Ive never really liked touch screens in the past...

EDIT: Why the hell is his pinky finger cutting off some of the handheld? FAKE
