I dont like it, cant put my finger on why.

Doesnt look as, sleek. A bit too busy.

I saw Miis in the trailer on IGN. SO going to take a guess and say it will have some Wii interactivity as last.

Looks nice but lowrider is right it's needs the logo on the front.

Not coming out for a while yet though

Wasted opportunity to redesign it, it's a horribly ugly thing. Looks reasonably sleek on the outside (if not a bit too plain), but there's a complete lack of any kind of design when it's open.

There goes my idea of purchasing Guitar Hero OT and DS Internet browser if there is no GBA slot. Not even my R4 can emulate any of those extra hardware features

So is this replacing the lite or is it going to be sold along with the lite ?

I reckon it will replace in Japan (next year when it is released), rest of world will use up old DS Lite stock and will get the new version when stocks are depleted (of the lite version). This is also assuming Nintendo have learnt how to mass manufacture stuff by then (I know Nintendo fans defend them, but can they really use the "we were caught unawares by the phenomenal demand" excuse on another piece of hardware ?).

Hate to burst your bubble but I think they only have display units. I say that because I haven't found a site with a hands on yet.

Jesus ******.

Sorry about that people.

That SD slot had better be an SDHC one! Hopefully they've added WPA for the wifi as well rather than leaving it at WEP

I'd have to see it in person, I never have liked the Black and White versions as i think the black looks extremely tacky and shows fingerprints while the white shows dirt and becomes mucky.

Think i'll keep my Red DS and wait for the new colours to come out. Dont see the camera come in any use when my phone has one.
