I hope they plan on making pink ones.

Woah awesome. So much for "NO SURPRISE ANNOUNCEMENTS UNTIL 2009"

...although this isn't a big surprise anyway

However, I totally plan on getting this; my old clunky DS has its share of problems....the touch screen is wonky (and cannot be calibrated), the sound hurfdurfs sometimes so that the speakers aren't synchronized, and the battery is starting to bork.

I had planned originally to trade this in to Gamestop and get my discount on a Lite. I may hold onto it a little longer, now.

* GameBoy: <-- have it

* GameBoy Pocket: <-- missed it

* GameBoy Color: <-- have it

* GameBoy Advance: <--- have it (reminded me of my Sega GameGear which I also have)

* GameBoy Advance SP: <--- Have it and still occassionally place it

* GameBoy (Advance) Micro: <--- I want it every time I see it in the used case but not cheap enough and I'd have no real "purpose" for it but... I love how tiny it is... not that I'd like playing my games on it... but it seems kewl....

* (Nintendo) DS: <--- Want it but will prolly never get it....

* (Nintendo) DS Lite: <--- Have it LOVE IT!!

* (Nintendo) DSi: <--- ... I'll prolly end up wanting this, too, but I'd doubt I'll get it.


.... I own too many of these things.... >_>;

About the earlier discussion, DS is not to be compared with any of the Game Boy systems, even if it's a portable system from Nintendo that plays games. :] Some people, like my mother, only play a few games on the DS but use it for things unrelated to gaming. I remember way back that they said the Game Boy line will still be continued. I'd assume Nintendo is just waiting for when it's actually necessary. They would never let Gunpei Yokoi's legacy fade like that. ^___^
