we'll see though. there are a ton of PS fanboys.

in my opinion, nintendo's consoles stay true to what i think a console is supposed to be, so i hope to see this thing blow the PS3 and 360 out of the water.
correct #1

What's the best game out for the DS? Animal Crossing, Nintendogs? :rofl: I did have a slight penchant for the Advance Wars series awhile back, but even then, the whole game looked like a cartoon.

Oh, and Burnout looks like shit on the DS. Nintendo made me a PSP fanboy, not Sony.
look down. i've seen many more kids with DS than kids and adults with psp

I'm sure the other systems could figure out a way to make these "interactive controllers" for their systems, and if the graphics are better y do I want to play a game that is superior playing but inferior looking? Games are just as VISUAL as they are INTERACTIVE. I see this as nintendo not being able to match the graphical capabilities of the 360 and PS3, so they came up with gimmick to sell the new system. A+ for the idea, F for not upgrading 100%.
you are playing video games for the wrong reasons

again, this generation graphics are still a major concern.

in the next generation, they will merely be a side effect of the evolutionary process
see above

I just hope that N is trying to keep the price point to under $150 or that the info that Grifter posted is just smoke and mirrors.
more info will be posted as i come across it

If the controller works the way they want great, but I wonder what kind of glitches may arise.

Might as well include a sensory suit so we can really "jump" into the game
again, the wrong reasons

out of the previous generation of consoles i only bought the gc for zelda and metroid. i have a psp but i am playing snes and genesis games on it
