Littlekill · #2ooo? may we soon see the next generation of nintendo handhelds?

What does this mean for Dsi owners? D:

Re: IGN Next Generation Nintendo DS RumorNDS backwards compatibility? Humm... so it will have at least two screens and one of them is a touchscreen. Ah well, I bet our flashcarts can't be used on them. :(
Ah well, nice find. :)

Re: IGN Next Generation Nintendo DS RumorI hope this doesn't turn into some "micro" bullshit like the GBA did when the DS first released.
Gameboy Micro

I'm hoping the Dsi is not the new micro... because if it is.... they f**king tricked me this time.

XD I was just thinking 'Yep, DSi = GBA micro'. However, since the micro was released a year after the original DS launched, it doesn't really count as such a dupe.I've always thought the DSi was a silly system, especially since the battery life is not what I'd expect of a handheld, & the complete worthlessness of the cameras. The fact it's technically stronger than the original DS designs doesn't mean jackall, as no sane developer will create a game that will only work on the DSi, alienating something around 100 million phat & DS lites. Plus, the cost to create a DS game is cheap - why pay more to risk less?

well to be honest I got a dsi for the virtual handheld shop that would make nintendo's Dsi worth buying... this was before I owned a flashcart and now I really do regret buying a dsi because I don't really use the dsiware and the games are crap only flipnotes is worth downloading and the camera is only a nice feature but worthless once you get tired of it, but the music was agood idea except for the fact that nintendo has made it really annoying to play music on dsi since you need to convert them into AAC files in order to play... and no Gba slot just makes it borring since there is no Virtual handheld shop in order to download GBA games such as golden sun.

Re: IGN Next Generation Nintendo DS RumorI hope they don't come out with a New DS system soon, but then again if it has a MUCH MUCH upgraded system(gamecube style) then maybe it will be worth a look.Wait did I just imagine a previous Nintendo system as a handheld..

Re: IGN Next Generation Nintendo DS 2 Rumor DestructoidAwesome... Thank god I didn't buy a DSi.

Re: Nintendo DS 2 Wii Quality Graphics 2010 IGN Destructoid Next Generation DS Rumoraww.i wanted to buy a DSi,... but now ill just wait.

Re: Nintendo DS 2 Wii Quality Graphics 2010 IGN Destructoid Next Generation DS RumorI wouldn't doubt if the next DS or whatever its going to be called doesn't turn into something similar to sonys PS Go where you have to download the games which means no more cartridges.

Re: Nintendo DS 2 Wii Quality Graphics 2010 IGN Destructoid Next Generation DS RumorWii quality graphics? The CPU alone does not determine graphical capability. Besides, the weakest Tegra CPU is clocked at 600 MHz, while the Wii has a 729 MHz processor (plus the GPU), making the claim of similar graphics all the more unfounded.A while back, Nintendo patented designs for a motion-sensing handheld gaming console. Where was all the hype for that?

Re: Nintendo DS 2 Wii Quality Graphics 2010 IGN Destructoid Next Generation DS RumorI wonder how much will it cost after it comes out... And I hope there will be flashcarts for it... I have some cash saved for moment like this :D

Probably because alot of sources are saying it's gonna show up in 2010 and I wouldn't be surprised if it does have motion sensing capabilities since they already have that on wii and they tested this out with wario ware Twisted and I can see that happeningalso maybe nintendo doesn't want to bring virtual handheld on dsi for this very same reason.GB> NES graphics GBA> SNES graphics NDS> some N64 graphics Ds2?> may have GC graphics
heck psp can handle some pretty good looking ps2 style graphics it would only make sense nintendo wanting to make it look like Gamecube graphics

well it's backwards compatible so NDS cartridges are gonna be used I guess.
my question is what the hell will this thing look like? I mean it would be kinda hard to improve the look of the DS

Re: Nintendo DS 2 Wii Quality Graphics 2010 IGN Destructoid Next Generation DS Rumor
It ISN'T official, don't get too excited :)

Re: Nintendo DS 2 Wii Quality Graphics 2010 IGN Destructoid Next Generation DS RumorHoly Sh** I take back what I said, and even thoe its fake, that looks nice!I also noticed that the Dsi camera could allow for the import of Mario kart Arcade I think that would be an awesome idea judging from the picture and online play

I don't think they will relase it soon- they did nothing yet, and they surely still want to make some money on DSi :P
And I told ya this pic isn't official.
