Adam Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I wish Nintendo would stop. I have 4 DS's (yes, FOUR) One I got which was the first DS, the gray one, for Christmas. Then, DRL got the Mario Kart normal DS for Christmas. THEN, He got a black DS lite Then, I got a white DS lite. Now, I know we don't HAVE to buy these, but good lord, I don't wanna me sucked into buying a new one every few months. Link to comment
Siendra Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 One model every eighteen months isn't bad. Link to comment
stranger Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I think I might be uprading VC thing is awesome, i'll be able to stick all my VC games on an SD card and play them on the go Link to comment
Ikari Warrior Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Well, I'm not sold. There's nothing wrong with my DSLite, I barely play it anyway, and the inclusion of an SD card slot is too little, too late. Link to comment

The Lone Magician Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Although I probably need a new DS, the fact that BOTH screens are touch screens worries me a bit. This means that developers can use BOTH screens for touch-related gameplay. This wouldn't be a problem if BOTH of my DS screens were touch screens, but they aren't. Link to comment
J-Stop Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Was the two touch screens confirmed? Last I heard was that one Japanese blog misinterpreted the two cameras for two screens, and IGN posted about the screens where it spread like crazy afterward. A few game blogs have since removed that. A new Rockman was mentioned last night too and I'm still playing on the original system, it's probably a good time to upgrade next year. That charcol one is sexy. Also, I'm more surprised that Nintendo announced two games that makes me want to turn on my Wii next year if they're localized. Link to comment

Two live blogs that covered the summit today don't mention it anywhere. Only thing I've noticed that's different from their Japanese conference yesterday was that two redesigned Brain Training games are coming to the DS Shop channel. Also Sin and Punishment 2 was confirmed for NA since it did well on the VC. Link to comment
