i think it's just new version of ndsl with added functionality

improved Wifi connectivity is welcome tho... really hated the WEP only connection, hopes the new one will have support for at least WPA

just like the psp-1000 psp-2000 and the latest psp-3000
psp still looks like n plays like psp, just with additional functionality

as for the hinge problem, I believe it's only happen on the early batch of NDSL, Ninty has already improve on the latter batch.
Mine no problem so far either with the hinge or the bottons, after coming to 3rd year playing the NDSL daily wink.gif

Do they really improve the hinge on later batch? Maybe. But lately I still see some people claiming their hinge cracking. The latest I saw is on gamespot where a member claim his crimson ds hinge showing crack and crimson unit is the later batch one right? Also, it is the DESIGN flaw not only plastic sturdiness! Still dont get me? Go look at the hinge design of the gba sp compared to dsl. And u r into 3rd year playing ndsl? Weird, I thought the dsl come out sometime in 2006 and it's only at max 2+ year to date. Oh another thought that come into my mind, is whether the new ds will block the access to flash cart or not since Ninty has discovered the existence of R4...

News of another version of the DS should not be considered surprising, considering that the GameBoy had many many generations before they finally ditched compatibility and naming conventions to reach the DS.

Gameboy
Gameboy Pocket
Gameboy Color
Gameboy Advance
Gameboy Advance SP
Gameboy Micro
Gameboy Advance SP now with BRIGHTER backlight!!
DS
DS Lite

Verily, it prints money.

Well, if they are making it with a bigger screen and dual touchscreen. I think that would be a whole new console, instead of a re-design.

kinda impractical if they make the upper screen touchable bcos just look at the way we hold a ds now, if the upper screen is indeed touchable, it will be wobbly and it may create another cracked hinge problem if we poke too much. tongue.gif

It's funny how no one follows up on rumours. Nintendo blew the cover on this one. NIKKEI did the entire report on their own, with no INPUT FROM NINTENDO. This is entirely still a rumour. A very unlikely one at that, seeing as Nintendo went out of it's way to tell us that the report was not made with nintendo's consent even though the launch date is a few days away. Doesn't make sense. Stop saying something's confirmed when it's not.
