Another new DSi with 4 inch screens

FluffyLunamoth · Oct 27, 2009

I really need to put this on a shortcut key so I don't have to keep typing it all the time...

To the people who complain about Lack of stupidass GBA Slot: OH. Freaking. Well. Did you honestly think Nintendo was going to support something that is DEAD??? The GB/GBC was no longer supported after the SP for a reason. That reason? They were dead. The GBA is now no longer supported on the DSi, and I can guarantee, anything after that. Why? Because the GBA is dead. It doesn't bring in revenue. Now get the frak over it.

There are some really good games on GBA that gives reason for GBA to stay! PLUS the GBA port on the DS lite was a way to implement new hardware (Like Camera/ Guitar Hero Grip/ Wario Ware motion sensor).

Plus many GBA games had the ability to transfer items or such with their DS version (Boktai can be used in Lunar Knights to power solar gun!).

The Ace attorney games were compatible
The Pokemon games were compatible too (Pokemon Dash, Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, and I'm sure HG and SS too maybe.....)

Anyway the difference between the psp 1k/2k/3k and Go is the UMD replaced by 16gb of memory and the adition of Bluetooth.... heck they went completely media there.

The difference between DSi and DSi 2 is a bigger screen? WTF do we need a bigger screen for... I mean there is a BIG difference between DS/Lite and DSi (dual camera, gba lost, AAC player and sound recorder, DSi ware, Web browser, you can remove your game without freezing the DS in the main menu and many more...)

If this comes out...I ain't gettin it because it's just gonna be more annoying in my pocket than my DSi already is...(it's thinner than DS lite but it's larger)

Edit: I forgot to mention the anti-piracy it's gonna have... If this console is gonna be buffed up in anti-hack, we're screwed here.... Nintendo is not joking anymore

If this is sarcasm, I apologize. But you are a fucking moron, plain and simple. The NES had a lot of good games. Did SNES support NES? I don't think so. SNES had a lot of good games. Did N64 support that? No. N64 had a lot of good games. Did Gamecube support them? NO. Gamecube had a lot of good games, and currently the Wii DOES support them. But I can guess, not for long. Dead things don't bring in revenue. Dead things get dropped in favor of better tech. A handful of games that can use the GBA Slot isn't going to keep the GBA slot there. Ace Attorney games were all remade for the DS. Pokemon games don't need the GBA Slot to be beaten.

The GBA slot had to go. It was a must. Why? BECAUSE IT WAS DEAD. The Camera has been implamented already, via the DSi. Guitar Hero sucked after 2, and I know NO ONE who play the DS ones. And WarioWare is moving on as well. So should everyone else. You people act like it's either A) The end of the world, which it's not, B) You didn't see it coming, which you should've, or C) Both.

I really believe they are only doing this release just for some insane anti-piracy,but who is gonna drop a DSi for another with bigger screens and better anti-piracy... that and losing all the DSi ware... That would suck,either way I will probably get it if Acekard or what ever other good flash carts work on it.

B-Blue · Oct 27, 2009

lmao, calm down man.
People complain about everything just because they can.
Even if the DSi has a GBA slot, people will come up with something different (omg still shitty graphics, etc...)

GBA games will probably become available for download as DSiWare. No need to let people play their old cartridges when you can charge them twice for their games. [/cynicism]

They've said they won't be doing that, so no, GBA ain't coming the the DSi, at least, not this generation.

OK don't go insulting me like that. Did I call you a fucking moron? NO! I just gave my opinion to what you said without insulting anyone!
Idiots like you are the ones that starts trouble in other people's live.

I'm not saying we should keep the GBA Slot, I was just saying how useful it WAS. I don't use the GBA anyway but what Veho said will probably come true and that's annoying... some people think that old graphic games or just plain old games are not worth it anymore... and that bothers me. That's why we have emulators for like almost every game system, because even if they're dead, some people still like to play them, that's THEIR OPINION (no need to criticize their ways)

Edit: I'm just reacting like that because of the anti-piracy mostly but if the DSi 2 proves to be hacked I'm getting it.

shakirmoledina · Oct 27, 2009

imagine if u could connect the ds to a touch screen tv, you would really have a great shoulder workout

good idea but u may wanna keep it down (the argument)

You right... but in my defense he insulted me

Imma be quiet for a while

themuddaload · Oct 27, 2009

yay now dsi r has skreen thet r as beeg as psp skreen well almost anywayz.

except it will still have the crappy ds resolution... 3 wo0ts for pixels the size of cheerios!!

ds2 please, something with 3 times the processing power and double the resolution... and a touch screen that doesnt suck, and get scratched from using the stylus...

shadow1w2 · Oct 27, 2009

I think a bigger screen is good.
My family has many games they want to play on the DS but they complain about the small screens and give up.
The low resolution isn't really a big deal to me and a bigger touch screen jsut can't be bad.
Especially if it doesn't cost me extra just for that.

Though I'd rather pay a little more for one this big.

I agree though, a DS2 would be nice already but somehow I think its a tad early still.
I'm patient anyway.

LightRapid · Oct 27, 2009

Whats wrong with the DSi?
All I FUCKING see is most of you people just keep DAMN complaining and complaining.
If you already have a DS then stay the fuck with it.
If you don't want a DSi then don't get one, ignore it.
Wait for the "DS2."

I have a DSi, I'm pretty damn satisfied.
Replaced my iPoood.
I don't need to buy a camera anymore.
Plays my DS games happily fine.
Acts as another alarm clock.
Also is convenient as a calculator.
I can check mail and Facebook.
Ya know, SOCIAL stuff too.

I don't see any cons to this.
I definitely believe its worth my money.

+10, 100 percent with you, the thing is that not everybody has the money to buy a DSi, so whats left for them..........well, bitching around about the product they cant have...!!

back on topic, Ill say, go bigger screen, no matter if looks pixelated as hell, 0.75 inches more are almost the same as if I buy a netbook, but with two screens and one of them is touchy....!!

That doesn't look so bad. Then pixels would be even bigger. Normal dsi > the 4 inch version imo.

TheDarkSeed · Oct 28, 2009

Do you really think the buttons are gonna stay the same size?

FluffyLunamoth · Oct 28, 2009

Aren't portables supposed to be...well...portable? That seems a bit big. I'll wait for Ninty to comment and confirm that beast before taking this thing seriously.
