Is Nintendo DS.

They have shown the final look of the machine:

I fell in love with the DS all over again.

I approve.

It looks pretty good. And the news about the games and the companies signing on is very good. I have a question? Does the DS use discs or cartridges? I haven't really been paying much attention to it..

Cartridges. But don't worry, battery life isn't going to be bad

Well when I first saw the pic didn't think it was much changed from the original design.. Then I saw the old design, and it is a big change, it looks a whole lot sleeker and the color is better

Only issue is where does the stylus go?

Lower right area of the DS, see that small circle? The bigger image shows where the stylus goes very well.

Good job Nintendo on going back to the board and bringing out a product 10x better looking then it was before. Now I want one since I won't have this gray box out and about and people looking at me weird
