Recently announced from Nintendo was that the DS would be receiving some new "practical" features and applications.
What ideas can you think of that would be cool to have on your DS? Here are a few of my ideas.
- Home Remote Control - Control your TV, Stereo, Lighting, all in one place!
- GPS - Plug in a receiver in the GBA slot and a map card in the DS slot and plot your road trip
- Location Sensitive Info - Walk into a store or other public place with a Network and it auto downloads a map of the area.
- Flight Info - While waiting in the airport check the status of flights and the length of the security lines
- Restaurant Ordering - Sit down at a table and browse a downloaded interactive menu and order right from your DS. Maybe even pay through it.
- Take tests with it - A lot of universities are requiring students to buy wireless electronic test pads for class. Why not have them buy a DS for about the same price and get a ton more flexibility in test software.
- Presentation Mouse - Ever had to make a presentation and the wireless mouse just wouldn't quite reach to where you need to stand? Make a simple touch screen mousepad and keyboard and with Wi-Fi you can reach all the way across the room.
- Music controller - Ever had music going on your computer in the other room and wanted to change it without getting up from what you're doing? Make the playlist appear on the DS so you can change songs to the one you want.
What are your ideas?
