Seems like Nintendo kind of ran out of innovations. I'm disappointed.

There are no Dual Touchscreens, that would mean redeveloping at least 100 games already scheduled, and that's even more stupid than the current move. No GBA means no rumble carts, no more special unlocks with GBA carts, no more GH On Tour. Doesn't sound that bad, but reduction in functionality for something that isn't even implemented yet (It's like saying you're buying PS3 for Home) isn't smart, I'll wait it out.

First Shiggy's announcement of the focus on Casual games. then this. What exactly is Nintendo's market plan?

On the positive side, the prices for NDSLs might be pushed down because of this...

NDSL prices down = Happy!
