Monkey Man Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 If they aren't getting the intended audience to buy the DS, then yes, a new GBA would be a good introduction. It does seem odd that Nintendo removed Gameboy from the DS's title, and does make you think maybe there will be another, purely games orientated handheld console out.

I agree there probably be a next-gen successor of GBA, but I seriously doubt we will see anything before late 2007-2008.

HalfLing Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 ok...ds fanboys psp fanboys shusshhhhh~!~ I am a nintendo/sony owner and I can say this...psp kicks the **** out of ds and gba as a portable gaming device for anyone over the age of 15. That being said...the gameboy and ds are kiddie...want a touch screen buy a pocket pc. Its much better- There won't be a new gba this year and the biggest evidence is the fact that nintendo hasn't announced it. If they did they could somewhat detract from the psp sells that will inevidable whipe out nintendos unchallenged rein on the handhel market. Many DS fanboys are angry because they didn't wait for the psp and now they've wasted 150-300$ on the console and they wish they'd chosen in favor of the psp...price of not being patient.

IK47 Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 The ds would be better if it were only one screen. one big touch screen. why does it have to have 2? I wish I worked for nintendo.

Taitsu Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 Okay, everyone else is off topic, I may as well be too for a little bit... Anyway... I am a Nintendo fanatic (not fanboy though, lol), and yes, I got the DS the day it came out, hoping to get Mario Kart and Metroid, and Castlevania even, sometime around March-May... of course they are all now pushed back to around September or so. Now, before you get all hissy-fitty on me, know that I also bought a PSP on its release day her e in the US. I just got Untold Legends, and I must say, that game is hella fun. My friend and I are finding ways to even play it over the internet, rather than the LAN capability that it has. Overall, the PSP is very impressive, especially for a Sony device, considering how terrible the PS2 was in comparison to XB and NGC. And again, don't go all crazy on me with that, that is just an opinion, and most of your arguements would consist of "Nintendo's games sucked, PS2 had GTA" yeah yeah that is just crap, so don't bother, this isn't the thread for it anyway. Overall, I must say that I play my PSP and DS nearly perfectly evenly. I am totally hooked on the Minigames in Mario DS (especially the shell-knocking one) and I just got WarioWare Touched! for free (I work at EBGames and Microcenter.. I get all the good stuff and promos, hehe) PSP I am hooked on Untold Legends right now, and until a better game comes out (Crisis Core, anyone??) I'll be playing UL d: Okay, my whole post was just to even things out with some of the other off-topic posts here... now back to the topic!! The Play-Yan, IMO, shouldn't be used with the DS at all, that's just dumb. Pluck yourself a GBA or an SP off eBay for like 20 bucks if you really think one of these things are neccessary, but I, myself, would never use this on my DS, that is for games, and games alone. As for comparison to the PSP.... there is none. That is of course, except the media involved. SD cards are much more widely used, and hell, they are much cheaper too, even though you don't HAVE to use a PRO DUO in your PSP, they just say that in the manual.. if you didn't notice, the card the PSP comes with isnt a PRO at all, it's only a 32MB MemoryStick Duo. Okay... that's it, I'm sure you people have read quite enough already d: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/296115-mp3mpeg4-player-for-nintendo-ds/page/2/#findComment-585678541 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperJediMedia Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 The ONLY WAY Nintendo can redeem itself is to release a addon for Voice Recorder, and Organizer, Save what you draw, and YES Chat Over the Internet, that's the ONLY way Nintendo can redeem themselves to me!
