New DS confirmed

[knoxvillz]

not worth it in my opinion, they changed some of the good features of the lite and just made the ds even worst. The camera's seem ok but is it really necessary to make a new ds? if they wanted a camera on the ds/lite why didn't they just add a slot-2 camera add on and update the firmware of the ds/lite to utilize its features? also the screens don't really seem to make that much to me and the battery life sucks aswell on the dsi.

Does anyone know what the orange led is for? WiFi? or What?

Like most, theres a high chance that a stronger battery will come out for the DSi.

You know how flashcards like r4's etc...have a firmware..but this new dslite I has a different firmware to dslite and phat...does it really matter , will it effect the use of flashcarts like r4's etc..because flashcarts dont use information from the DSfirmware,Except for the time etc..so i dont think it should matter(i might be wrong) ..just need a bit of clearing up.Or evenif it does,i am sure our hacer friends will work something out.!

Thanks..

I think Nintendo is eager to "slip" this type of thing in with any hardware change, but believe me the hackers never sleep.

In fact, running software on it might not even require a flashcart anymore, this is dependable though.

edit: Plus is suspect more ram.... hmmm?

And MP3 player
And you can listen to radio ...

The player can only play AAC now, and there's nothing about the possibility to listen to radio on their site.
I think that "radio" on the screen capture is only a filter you can apply to a sound file.

No it was actually a radio.

(i can read basic japanese characters)

it says

Radio Karaoke
Echo 8 bit

But on the right it says "transform voice and music" making me think that those 4 settings are just filters.
I can read Japanese and there's no mention of radio reception, I don't think they would let it out.

 

[xalphax]

i think we are going to need new flashcarts then....

I'm cool about the DSLi not too much more that would make me want one over my DSL. But I will update one day. (First price drop perhaps)

One question I have not seen answered is, WHAT IS THE REMOTE THINGY FOR IN THE VIDEO BELOW?

You see is for about 1-2 secconds.

Now I'm upset, I was all excited about a new NDS (I'm in the market to buy a new one right now). But now that I've seen it I'm sad. A crappy camera and no GBA slot? Well great, you took out the ability to play some of my favorite games (Golden Sun) and added in something I already have on my cell phone. Well guess this settles it, I'll wait a while for this to get the DSL prices down before buying a DSL.

Not everyone who has money is willing to spend it on such superfluous things.

Well...I think it won't change anything because games do use that information(time/birth/nickname)too.

Thats the Nintendo Pedometer...//

Ahh, I didn't even consider that. Thanks.

A pedometer, just what I always wanted. It's not like a higher resolution screen would have been more helpful...
