Firstly, it is very, very light. I could probably throw it a city block, but it would break. Not because it feels cheaply constructed, but because after being airborne for that distance, I'm pretty sure the collision with the ground would have that kind of effect.

Anyway, other than being very light and feeling cheap, its awesome. Seriously, its the same. About the only major selling point for me is the extra RAM. There's no such thing as too much RAM. The raised buttons and brighter screen are also pretty nice upgrades. The TV-out is just icing. If you're thinking of getting one, you probably should. I'm only saying that because of the RAM. RAM is better than great.

I've found myself a handheld only gamer these days because I'm on the road all the time. Since I travel so much, it isn't feasible anymore for me to lug a console around with me from place to place, just to get some gaming in. Granted, there are games on home consoles that I'll never be able to experience in portable form, but I haven't been much of a gamer the last few years.

I don't even have the patience to finish FFXII and though I'd love to play Okami, I know I'll never get around to finishing it because of my lack of interest in taking time out to setup and play on a TV. I'd rather whip out my portable when I get the urge.

If this series were to be adapted to the big screen, I wouldn't mind seeing an awesome story involving the cast from CV3. Trevor, Alucard, Sypha (not sure on the spelling), and Grant. That would be all kinds of awesome considering how CV3 links to Symphony of the Night.

Anything involving Alucard is kick ass anyway. I could see a big screen love story between Trevor and Sypha, who I believe did actually get married in the CV storyline. It would be cool to see that translated on film along with Trevor's relationship with Alucard since they became respected friends.

While I'm at it, they could try something different and do a trilogy out of sequence. That would rawk! Seriously. Do CV3 first, then maybe Sypmphony since it has the more logical relation to CV3, then go back to where it began with the third movie and showcase Simon from a mix of CV1 and 2.

Just tossing out ideas I'd love to see happen.
