DS Advance instead of DSi

Instead of DSi, why don't they make a new DS with better graphics (Gamecube quality), that is backward compatible with current DS games, plays new Advanced DS games, and also Gamecube discs? Don't tell me that they couldn't make a portable to read those small Gamecube discs. And don't tell me that it wouldn't fly off the shelves if they did. This way they could continue making DS games and making new DS Advanced games at the same time. I saved all my old Gamecube discs in the hope that this would happen eventually given Nintendo's trend of making new systems play old games (like DS playing GBA games.) They probably had the idea of a portable system that plays Gamecube discs all along when they decided to release them so small.

Who wouldn't want this over DSi?

Here's why.

DS is selling like hotcakes and also has the highest userbase in the world (with the exception of PS2), so to abandon this platform is silly.

and Nintendo would never make a portable console that played GC games, because they couldn't make money off of reselling the games.

And another thing. Nintendo is trying to make money. Going all out and making the best handheld they can won't make sense. They wouldn't gain as much money as they could if they just keep making minor imporvements. They save money on the porduction of the actual product but sell the same number of units. Does anyone get me cause I can't explain it well.

why would you want a handheld that plays gamecube disc >_>

thats just what we need in a handheld, awful load times. (kinda like my psp :P )

One thing....well the first two guys said it all.

Second thing.....who wants a handheld that playes GC games??????
