It will appeal to older players by not looking like a toy. Have you seen the actual DS in person?
This will be smaller, lighter, and screen will be brighter than the current DS.
I want one, but this whole iPod white plastic trend is kind of turning me off. I hope they come up with more than this white version when it launches in March. _________________ [IMG:258:200]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v435/ypark/sigs/3fsn.png[/img] |

Well, you can always fit it into you back pocket, although there's the fear of sitting down.  _________________

Back pocket = Ca$h. Front pockets = Crap sush as SP and palm pilot. Pockets of my jacket = Passports and plane tickets, I think I also have bus tickets since I reuse em and never been caught beore /gg _________________ Life is full of truth, but I'd rather live in lies.

| i agree. i mean, sure a smaller size would be a bit better, and some better graphics would be nice(i really think the DS needs that compared to the PSP), but it's not worth it... |

Looks much nicer... I'd actually want one.
I hate how they come out with new ones. They'd better let you return the old one and pay some money, to get the new one. |

No... they'll still sell the current model of DS along with the mew model. It'll just be less expansive than the new one.
If you want the new one, just trade in your DS at some EB games store. _________________ [IMG:258:200]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v435/ypark/sigs/3fsn.png[/img] |

The old DS being bulky and such? I don't have that problem, but you know what big hands mean.
A perfect fit for the DS of course! |

| Not having a DS from before but wanting one, this is the best thing that could've happened to me. I've seen a lot of people complaining that Nintendo should have just stalled the release of DS and made the original into Lite, but no one is forcing them to buy it. But from the view of someone who wanted a DS but never had one, this is great news. |

I'm wondering if it's worth it at that price. How much does an original DS cost? (I actually don't know the price, so sue me) _________________

I think this redisign will be an important step in getting more consumers in North America. The west is fascinated by pretty looking PSP, maybe if DS didn't look too childish, people might actually start buying DS.
But then again, some people are just posers. They don't really know what games are all about. Those people like sexy cars and guns... =.=
They might not be able to see beyond childish looking games on DS. _________________ [IMG:258:200]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v435/ypark/sigs/3fsn.png[/img] |

There really isn't much of a difference though. I wish Nintendo would make a more major change before they release a new version. I guess the choice of the two would be nice, but not of any real consequence.
And the article might be false for all we know. Until I see a TV ad I'm not going to believe this for one second. |
