So are any of you going to get the new DS?

I'm retarded, and lemon party isn't funny. Thanks for banning me, Kaz! I know I deserved it.

You act as if we don't all already know about this. You don't need to post a source...we all know it's true, and we have for about a month already.

And no, I'm not getting one unless something happens to my Lite.

No, because it's really hard to run flashcarts on it.
Well Team Cyclo had a crazy breakthrough the other day but whatever I'm happy with my lite

Reasons why I'm not getting the DSi

1. Slot two has been removed for "bigger screens". Screw that, I play my GBA games all the time on my DS. Also, I can't play Guitar Hero: On Tour anymore.

2. Flash cartridge compatibility issues

3. A CAMERA?!?! What the frak, a camera? You've got to be kidding, a camera and a phone with a camera is enough, tyvm. If I want to play with a camera I'd just get my GBC and boot up Game Boy Camera and hook up the printer for goodness sakes.

4. Most probably will cost a lot (cost a lot means >= $150)

5. I already have a DS. Leave me alone already.

"Upsides" of the DSi

1. WEP-encryption support. Finally, I don't have to wardrive whenever I want to connect to Wi-Fi.

2. Supposed "better sound and picture quality". Ok, that seems like a fair deal, but then what about battery life? O_0


Basically, majority rules 5 to 2. I won't be getting the DSi, even if it came with Starcraft for the DS. (ok, I would fall for that, but then if it's available as a cartridge, why wouldn't I just get the memory dump (aka rom) on my R4?  doodella;)

IMO, so don't judge based on me. But then again, who wants to listen to a guy like me

Oh, and by the way your source was shopped. Most probably shopped.
And WTF that is NSFW material

Uh, it was lemonparty. Of course it's NSFW. The OP is a douche, so I banned him for two days.

You are forgetting the DSi Shop. When I see what they are releasing on the DSi store, and if it's any good, I will probably end up buying one, although I will probably buy it regardless because I want the latest design.

I'll be getting it. I don't have a DS right now because I sold my DS lite to my younger brother.

I already have two DSs, the original and the Lite. I will not get the DSi unless it had some really interesting software that can only be played on it. befuddlement

Not the DSi.  Though I would like to pick myself up a DS Lite, maybe they'll go down in price, but then again it's not supposed to come out here until 'well into 2009'.

I might get it, depending on what they do with the shop. My Lite's R button doesn't work anymore and I'll need to get another one eventually. If nothing interesting comes out on the shop, I'll just get another Lite so I can play GBA games. Or maybe I could get an SP.

My R button was broken on the DS I sold to my brother. I might get a used SP and a DSi when they come out.
