The DSi is sad... Looking past the "no GBA slot", I think it'll be a good handheld. What with the possibility (not yet confirm) of finally recording videos using the DS and having downloadable content (confirmed) and a slot for a Micro SD (confirmed). Sure, having no GBA slot means that you also have to get a DS/DS Lite or look for a friend who has one, but this is Nintendo's way of saying "IN YOUR FACE SONY!", so don't you dare ruin the moment and flamme the handheld without an experience or at least high amount of knowledge of the thing. However, with that said, I'm not gonna get it. It's not because it's crappy like Pokemon D/P, but because it's expensive and I'm already planning... ermmm... we're already planning on a Wii. Lol, I knew that was coming for some time now. Heres a minor down side though, the DSi has no GBA slot! Looks like no Battle Network on DS besides SF. MMBN 5: Double Team DS is sad.

I already have 2 DSes and 2 GBA (poossibly I will get a third one... for Pokemon games ) And thanks to the whole lot of new feature It'll have, I'll buy it the day it's gonna be released! No GBA slot? I don't give a damn. I'm sure that most people who will buy the DSi here will still have their GBA/GBA Players or DS. Besides, I'M keeping my GBAs to be able to trade myself between my 5 pokmon games Region Locked? Again, who cares! If you REALLY can't wait for your DSi game to be released in your region, do like most PSP players do: Hack it! Thanks to the SD slot, the DSi will be easily hackable, so you'll be either able to play downloaded games, or be able to play other region's games. If you don't want to hack, then sucks to be you! Beside, I think the slot will be an SD one, not a Micro SD... well, I may have been misinformed

I can't really remember well, but I do believe I saw a video of the DSi being demonstrated in a Japan Expo last year. The Micro SD slot is located on one of the sides of the DSi (left... right... I forgot); separated from the regular SD game pak slot. I'll try to look for the vid.

Am I the only one that doesn't understand WHY Snake is in Brawl? Snake is from the Metal Gear solid series right? So if the newest is PS3 only, why would Nintendo put Snake in Brawl?
That also serves as an argument to why Megaman should be in Brawl. They put in a character who has no reason to be with Nintendo, at Sonic has some history with Nintendo worth saying. Plus Capcom keeps the BN, SF, zero and ZX series completely Nintendo, there's no reason why Megaman shouldn't be added into the next game.
DSi, however, I see as the stupidest idea Nintendo has had. Sony add alot of crap in with their consoles to jack the price up, c'mon do I really need a Blue ray DVD player that makes no difference to the quality?! You also don't need to use the tilt sensor for so long... Then when you finally get to it, how do you know it's not screwed up in some way? For the Wii at least you know if it works all the time, but with the Six axis, you end up getting to a very important part of the game where you are FORCED to use the tilt sensor, but it's broken. My point is, I never use Add on for game consoles, I haven't used my mobile for so long I've been disconnected from Vodaphone, like I said, crap you find broken when you need it most. At least the most useful thing about my phone still exists... The alarm XP. "So don't fall for the new fangled thingamajigs, just stick to good old fashioned essentials. Or I'll teach you the lesson the same way I teach those pigeons!!" [/Old seedy]

Snake was added because the creator of Metal Gear specifically asked for such. Also, the Metal Gear series goes farther back than simply Metal Gear Solid. Anyway, I will be keeping an eye on this thread. Make certain to avoid any bashing or flaming, or else this thread will be closed.

[/Old seedy] To add what Syaro said: -Metal Gear (NES) -Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake (NES) -Metal Gear Solid: The twin snakes (GameCube) 'nuff said.

Being this place is prone to flame the DSi, I would like to ask: AM I THE ONLY PERSON GETTING ONE?!?! Furthermore, I don't have any knowledge of the console, someone fill me in on if it was even released in japan or not? If so, I think I saw the sales record for it, and it went through the roof! Maybe I should go Miles right now, but I thnk me being MMA1 is enough. Considering you haven't used the console or not, don't flame it without difinitive proof. This isn't to insult anyone, I just think the DSi isn't getting a shred of mercy. PS. Brothers think alike I see

If I could afford it, maybe. Too bad I cannot. And I'm getting Wii earlier than that for sure.

If it's just for the downloadable content and the availability of LEGAL internet game downloads a la PS3, and given I can find, like, $500 (I expect the price to nearly double once exported), then yeah, I might.
Actually, game critics are saying that both the DSi AND the Wii are Nintendo's biggest flunks. EVER... and that Sony's outdone them, regardless of gameplay, graphics and all of that game rating whatnot.

I'm sorry did I misread? THE WII! The wii is by far the best console out at the moment! How can it be considered one of nintendo's biggest flunks?

I read last month on a Yahoo(!) news post that critics say that the Wii is (currently) Nintendo's biggest flunk.
I believe that they said that games only reached 50% of their desired sales, save for Nintendo titles such as Wii Sports, SSBB, LoZ: Twilight Princess, etc. (Battle Revolution was not counted as a Nintendo success).
I was too lazy to read some other paragraphs (say like, 6 out of 10) in that wall of text, but the opinion of the article writer is that the critics probably forgot about the "fun" aspect and concentrated more on the "business".
