My brother has a psp which I get to use whenever I want, so it's all good.
But yeah. I'm so pissed >: Built in web browser? Camera? Dual touch screens? You know big things are coming and I wont get to take part in any of them D:
Boo money hawgs.
They should do a swap, hand in old DS for new one ;D

why would you make both screens touch? The vast majority of DS's only have 1 touch screen, so they can't take advantage of it in games.

Hmmm...
No GBA slot? Well, then no for me. I have a lot of loved games on the Gameboy Advance.
I like the bigger screens, hate the smaller size, my thumbs are big so I can't use lites.

Good, but nothing huge. I like the web browser, though. But I'll stick with my original DS

I still have the original DS , I'm fine with it. I don't carry my Nintendo around enough to use a camera on it. That's what phones are for.... Also the no GBA slot is terrible, I play more GBA games then DS games.

I love my DS. ^^

Anyways...the new DS has a shop for it right? Maybe it'll let you buy old GBA,GBC,GB games. I hope so ^ ^ that may make me buy another model.

To me it seems like a big upgrade compared to the last one.

I was fine with the original ds. I never really liked it in the first place.

I really hate the DS how it dosen't have any "mature" games and good graphics.
And all the car games aren't great. Besides that i do like a few games. But a few.

I got a neat little zombie game for my birthday. It's called Touch the Dead for DS and it's similar to playing an arcade game only zombies in yer face and mad stick smash <:
