    I have been screwing with google and later on checked with IGN, I noticed a video screen with Nintendo DS and an Nvidia logo behind it. As I was curious, I watched it and there it is! The New Nintendo DS console powered by Nvidia. Though the news about it isn't very detailed, you got the idea of it.

    Article of the referenced news is this: http://www.brightsideofnews.com/news/2009/10/13/nvidia-tegra-wins-contract-for-next-gen-nintendo-ds.aspx

    Keeping you all in the loop.

    ...I don't believe it.

    Sounds like ethier a powerful handheld-or a really functional one coming our way...

    But I wonder...

    When the ds first came out-nintendo reffered it as a "third piller"-a seperate being from the other consoles at the time-the gba and the gamecube.

    WHat will it be called-ds2-some other new name-GAME MAN?

    ...I actually miss the old gameboy name :(

    That's what I wish as well. Or maybe not. Maybe the games'll be even better and hence, worth the money.
    Plus if this does pull through, the piracy control will be reinforced. Nintendo's bound to learn from seeing all these Majicon devices around. They may not be willing to take that kind of blow again.

    If it's as good as it's made out to be...maybe a tad more powerful than those 2...

    As much as I like to have free games...

    If the console has the potential-I might forgo the roms.

    Might revert into a partial nintendo knight-doing what I can to put a spanner into roms XD


    (but maybe not-second hand gamecube games aren't cheap :( )

    I wish that the new DS will have a Nintendo DS slot cart, I'm just about to buy a Nintendo DS this coming December.

    Btw, the new handheld will be announced in the next year TGC (Tokyo Game Show). Hard decision for me to buy this coming end of year or wait for TGC's announcement on the status. Sigh.
