I rarely used the GBA slot so it's not much of a loss for me, but I understand why backwards compatibility matters. It's the thing that even drew me to the Wii in the first place: to play the great GameCube games. But still, I like the fact that you can just hot-swap DS cards and that you can still play US games in it (I thought it was region-locked! Phew!). Maybe the Music player filters will get old along with the editing features (which are cool, btw), but the DSi Store seals the deal for me. I can't wait to get my fat DS traded in for this one if I get the chance.
I just hope that new Wiimotes will come packaged with MotionPlus AND stay at the same price! This would not only make business for them better, but give a bit more value to a Wiimote purchase!
