But this is the confirmation of the real thing, and this is not a rumour.

I'm not too bent out of shape about the GBA removal cuz I still have my NES GBA SP  But I can imagine that might piss a lot of people off...
I was going to trade up to a DS lite, now I may wait for this...Depends on the battery life. Plus when this comes out, the Lite may drop in price

i might probably buy this,i will start saving from now on...mainly because of the camera(since i dont have a digital camera and my cell phone is a 2 MP camera)and the browser,but i have one doubt...
why they didn't announce anything about the battery life??? i think we'll have to wait for the release to find out
about the GBA slot...that means you wont be able to play games like guitar hero on the new DS lol
and reggie said they were going to produce games where you would make use of the new features....that sucks if you have a DS lite cause you wont be able to play em...as long as it's not one of the new RPG like fire emblem or that Tales of ???? in the video Hector posted

To be honest ds lite + R4 is basically the same thing, if you want a camera go get a good quality camera, if you want a music player go get a GD ipod.
Internet browser? lolollololol how much RAM does this DS thing have i heard of RAM packs but still lmao.
Oh and the screen size got upgraded by like 1/2 an inch???
the only things i dooooo like is the button layout and the removal of the GBA slot.

(even though i don't know how much 1000 points can get you but hey it's free  )
and we'll be getting downloadable content from the ndsi store like games etc.
and you can use your wii points on your ds if you have some points on your wii that you don't plan on using
