LMAO JUST REALISED THAT THIS NEW DSI IS JUST TAT!, Nintendo is just digging money off you consumers can you not see...

This all started with the Nintendo Gameboy Advance it went from that too the Nintendo SP then the Nintendo Micro all these with no real new features they are all just gimmicks they all play the same format games with no exclusives as i am aware off.

Then they bring out the very first Nintendo DS commonly called the Nintendo DS Phat then comes the Nintendo DS Lite now soon the Nintendo DSi will come out the PSP is doing the same thing the Xbox 360 also has with the Elite and other special addition ones like Halo, you don't need theese there just gimmicks you can buy a seprate big 120gb hard drive for your xbox 360 seriously guys.

In my experiences most Nintendo DS games can be played without the touch screen been used it is mainly just a gimmick.

Seriously im thinking im just growing out of games or does anyone else see what i mean.

End of my Nintendo DSi Rant.

Don't all companies try to get money from consumers? I think this started even further back than the Game Boy Advance, back when Nintendo was making cards.

The DSi is the next updated DS, and you can't really blame Nintendo for updating it considering it's doing so well. Some people will like the new features the DSi has to offer and will buy it, that doesn't mean you have to also.

Nintendo is starting to lose it all they just suck I mean ok mario is fun but come on enough with mario and all the childish games how about some action some blood some adrenalin pumping look at MGS GOW resident evil DMC all nintendo has is kiddy games, and now they just add a freakin 3mp camera to a ds lite and expect us to be impressed hey why not use a 10mp camera to take pictures oh and about the sd why don't we buy those ds carts that lets us download free games and mp3s they have sd memory.!!!! nintendo what a disappointement shame on u.!!!!!!!!!!!

Its an update of a console. Everyone does it. I can understand if you just bought a brand new DS, but the DSi probably won't realease this until this time next year in the US, and the system proabably won't become good for about a half a year.

nah, i think it will be mostly a flop. it can't be long before the handhelds step up another notch. but on the other hand, nintendo does pretty much decide WHEN they step up.

yeah in a way they are forcing u to buy it if u look at it my way because with me i start seeing things released for it and i think to myself that i canrt do that with my ds and stuff like that and in my mind i just have to have the latest stuff idk y but wutevr. every company does this but nintendo does it most. and the camera and sd slot seems like a really good idea to me but not a lot of new features mp3 is pretty awesome though. also agree that nintendo needs to make more violent games etc. they might do a little better if they make some more not so kiddy games.

actually i think it's just the opposite. in my life i have only owned a GBC, GBA, NDS, and NDSL (handhelds). the only reason i had to buy the lite was because my NDS's top screen cracked inside. i was able to skip the GB, GBP, GBSP, and GBM and nintendo had no problems with it. i was right satisfied as well :)

most people these days have mp3 players already that don't use SD cards, and the camera is only 3mp, so i doubt anyone will buy it for those features. look at the PSP, the SD cards are far too expensive to get anything worth putting your music on. not to mention pictures, save games, movies, and sometimes .iso files

as far as your last two sentences, that's another argument, but i will counter it with: if nintendo didn't make the non-violent games someone else would, and I'll bet they would get the same complaints. it's futile, nintendo doesn't do violence, get over it.

The PSP uses Sony's proprietary Memory Stick Duo format, not the far more ubiquitous Secure Digital format. Get your memory formats correct. Anyway, just because something new releases doesn't mean that all the older hardware is useless. You don't have to replace your current DS with a DSi, unless you really want the DSi-specific features and software. Game developers would be crazy to abandon all the older DSes in favor of the newer hardware given the huge install base.

You mean when it's unleashed? :D

J/p. But seriously, that's cool. If i didn't have a lite, I'd probably buy the dsi.

Gameboy Advance SP was a great update and added alot of good features. The Micro was interesting and though it didn't bring anything new to the table it was a decent choice for those who had not gotten one yet. The same thing applies to this however putting things such as more multimedia features + a proper download service is something that should've been there from the start and may alienate some people.

if this DS has no new enticing software - games - then it's a no go for me. I don't think that's the case though so I'll be sticking with my good ol' DS Phat I've had since launch :D

It took me awhile to decide. I had to mull it over for awhile but I've decided that I won't be getting a DSi as I've always never bought a second version of the same system and I will not buckle now, not even with the pretty nifty features they're adding on to this one.

Wait, what about the Game Boy and the Game Boy Pocket? Wasn't the Pocket a release of the same hardware but in a smaller, sleeker package? Perhaps you missed that one out. Either way, I'm all for the DSi and I will most definitely picking one up upon launch.
