I dunno how good of a idea this is, obviously for older people such a thing would be great, especially with the brain training software.

But for the rest of us who have good eyes, a magnified screen, especially with games that were not built for it, can make the games you have look a tad bit uglier. So if you are a graphics whore, a bigger DS screen may not be the best thing.
Agree with that.

NoA-This new model can store up to 2 GB of music on it without any kind of extenal storage device!
Rudy-Cool.....not as much as an iPod but that's more than enough for me. What else?
NoA-It can cure cancer and launch a tatical nuclear strike.
Rudy-Damn......is there anything this new model can't do?! ^_^
NoA-Well.....it's not backwards compatible with the GBA........
Rudy-.......And your expecting me to buy this?
and that

To me this whole new Dsi version sounds stupid. Why on earth someone would buy it when we know that next year Nintendo will show the new handheld?

And more important, why don't they release the console with all those stuff from the beginning? It's the fourth DS for crying out loud! http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/dsiLL/index.html

Thanks but i'll pass, i'm fine with my Lite.
