I'm sure both games will be announced eventually. It's just most developers will be focusing on trying to best implement 3D effects. Side scrollers and top down strategy games wont sell the 3D effect as well as a 3D platformer or a racing game for example. I suspect we'll see an awful lot of racing games on this console lol. Once the hype dies down though, i'm sure the classics will return.

Agreed, Advanced wars is one one of the best GB games. http://www.play-asia.com/SOap-23-83-iqnt-71-8s-49-en-84-k-40-extended.html

While I don't have an XL, I can understand where you're coming from. 3.5" is just small, I'd be happy with 4".

^^^^^. Im pretty sure the slide pad is the focal point for navigating. It is meant to take main responsibility for what the d pad did with the DS. It makes sense to position the slide pad were the d pad used to be, and it seems ergonomically correct to have it there.

I'm suprised they bothered with the D-pad to be honest. It's not really necessary for movement anymore.

Here's a thought, it could be used for games such as call of duty, just like the console versions. You use the analog stick or "slide pad" to move and then with the D-Pad you click the left button to use weapon attachment and right for killstreak reward. But besides call of duty I can't think of any other reasons :roll:

I just don't like how the top screen is wider than the bottom, and I'm perplexed at there only being one analog nub.

The console isn't released yet, so those games may still be released

mine is the fact that the tech is great but the reason i hated the ds in the first place was the terrible d pad and jamming buttons. and the layout. so seeing how its still all there just disapoints.

i kinda want to see some original ip's seriosuly do we need a kingdom hearts and resident evil prequal.....again. there like no original serise

This. It does seem like odd placement to me, too. I mean, I don't necessarily mind d-pad where it's at I guess it's just the 'slide pad' that has the awkward placement, imo.

I can't get into Advance Wars... But yes, Castlevania DS games are some of the greatest games ever..... I can't wait to see what we get with so much more cart memory.
