New DS confirmed

[alucard77]

Well, I am happy this was announced since I was worried this would be a great system, and I just replaced my DS.

This thing is useless. It has a .3 Megapixel Camera, and a .25 larger screen, and a couple of useless tools I would never use.

This thing is lame, you have to be a total fanboy to claim otherwise. Not even a GBA slot? Unless they allow you to dump your GBA games and play them off of your SD Card, I can't see how this can be good.

Retarded.

I really don't see why this is worth paying extra money for they are really just milking the nds now. I wish they made a redesign thats totally diffrent like the gba micro was and I really don't see what they where thinking removing the gba slot.

removal of the gba slot was done as a cost/weight cutting measure. considering that no one is producing game boy advance games any more, I can understand why they did it. (it's no different than the game boy micro not featuring game boy or game boy color backwards compatibility).

edit:
(see above) can someone please explain what the hell spamming a website does? I mean honestly, does anyone ever go to these links?!? what a waste of time and bandwidth.

So this DS Ware, how long before it's cracked and you can also use it on regular DSLs?

Putting a camera in a DS seems pretty useless to me, but eh. What the heck.

 

[War]

The new DS is utterly failage. I'm just hoping the DSware can get hacked, because that does actually sound kinda cool. If we can get that plus the new firmware, then there's absolutely no need for a new DS.

GBA>>>>>>> shitty camera

I don't really see your point:

GBA Micro - Removal of GB compatibility.

DSi - Removal of GBA compatibility.

The big improvements I see is actually on the connectivity and DSWare features. There may be some really cool things going there as is probably a good alternative for homebrew. It depends on how they offer the SDK (e.g. free for non commercial uses? paid for commercial ones along with the development hardware).

True they could have gone a different route with the redesign, but that would also break too much woth the previous hardware, plus unless they went with more expensive parts, a lot of the hardware couldn't have improved much, in a couple of years I'm sure we'll see a nice flexible transparent oled screen on our DStwo's.

Plus it's an alternative, you want GBS get a DSL, want the new stuff get a DSi, all the Cart games will always be compatible.

Only way this will be good is if someone can make a custom firmware for it that will allow roms and homebrew to be loaded from an SD card.

That'll probably happen maybe a few months after release. In which case no more need for flashcarts.

 

[alucard77]

If I know anything about Homebrew functionality, they will allow regular games, but will disallow everything else. For instance, emulators, forget about them. Doom/Quake ports, not gonna happen.

So your stuck with a couple of good homebrew games or apps. Not much more.

To successfully suceed with being an "open" system, you need to be able to run all homebrew. Or people will resort to hacking to get what they want.

As for the the DSi being hacked to play roms. Why would anyone who owns a DS buy a DSi to play roms? You can get a flashcard for $20 now.

do not really care about the new ds, i prefer to play my ds lite and my supercard

its not so bad.
i might get one to help "test" current carts 2 weeks after release tho

thanks to the many of you who reported the post

 

[da_head]

well iunno wat to make of this. i'll wait a bit to c if flashkarts can work on it or not, and determine if it's worth the upgrade. fortunately, i actually have cash to burn these days

Oh yeah, another nice thing about it is that it's matte...but I have a case on my DSL anyway.

what would you rather get tho

a new ds with camera (woopdy doo) for £/$150+
or a flash card for £/$35

id rather download an image veiwer from homebrew an take pictures with my 5mp camera an transfer them over than spend shit loads of money on stuff i can already do

 

[Akotan]

New firmware... it's a little bit worrying... Starting to save money now.
