Even if Microsoft made another console, they won't spice it up like the other Companies unless you count kinect, they would probably just boost online services and upgrade hardware.

the problem is that unlike pc's consoles aren't easily upgradable so we have no choice but to stay with tech that is approaching 7 years of age. That being said I do believe this gen of consoles still have a lot of potential for great games.

well gameplay wise it cant really be enhanced without a peripheral like kinect. Graphics wise it still has potential left.
i dont know why people make such a big deal about the xbox's RRoD, i mean, i know it shouldnt happen, but once it does, you get your xbox replaced for free, so theres really no reason to complain
"Once it does" instead of "if it does" is part of the problem...Xale said:
Another part is that some people have run through multiple units. I saw a news post a while back where one guy had 7 in a row.
And yes, you can get it replaced for free (if it's within the warranty extension, which not all are anymore), but then you go a few weeks or so without one while yours ships there and a fixed one ships back.

Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.+1 -

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1 -

SylverReZ:
They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite+1

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."+1 -

anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media+1
if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them -

BigOnYa:
Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
