| News came out yesterday that there were reports about a new DS redesign featuring:
Camera
Music capabilities
Better Wifi
Larger Screens
It's still rumor, but a Nikkei website also had this report, which ups this 'rumor's credibility by a lot. If it's real, I think I'll pass. I'm happy with my DS Lite, and I already have a iPod for other media. Idk if it's really gonna make a difference, those camera and etc. A larger screen would be amazing though, but it's ultimately all about the games, right? So whats your thoughts? | |

| who knows? lol I'm guessing its for competing with cell phones, even specific, iPhone/Touch. Some games will use it too.
If only it had 2 touch screens, that would pwn! | |

| You got the original or Lite? idk bout others, but just camera and music won't persuade me to buy it.
I'm thinking that releasing a new hardware altogether will alienate the casuals who bought a ds/lite and will ruin sales. | |

| I'm kind of sick of every new electronic trying to incorporate everything it can. I would rather have separate machines that focus on one aspect and do it fantastically. | |

| exactly, that's why I have a DS Lite and iPod. Each one having their own specialty that they do amazing at. I actually don't mind pertaining to consoles like xbox/ps but handhelds I kinda do. Much like the psp where it was all multimedia, but the games were mediocre. EDIT: A NINTENDO CONFERENCE HAPPENING RIGHT NOW ANNOUNCED THE NINTENDO DSi  | |

| so you're not interested in getting this newer version?
I really don't see the point if you already have a DS Lite/original unless you're a camera fanatic lol. They're gonna have the same game carts, but only a few that will be DSi exclusive | |
