No announcement about when it comes stateside or to Europe. Title: Re: DS Redesign Revealed Post by: Tynstar on January 26, 2006, 06:35:03 AM Hmmm maybe I will wait and get one.

Title: Re: DS Redesign Revealed Post by: TraderJake on January 26, 2006, 09:12:13 AM I think Nintendo is on a binge trying to emulate Apple's designs.

Yeah, it is very very white and, I think, rather boring. In my mind the old one looked better. Title: Re: DS Redesign Revealed Post by: The Metamorphosing Leon on January 26, 2006, 10:27:57 AM I wonder what it would be like to be in your mind.
Title: Re: DS Redesign Revealed Post by: Izret101 on January 26, 2006, 10:48:34 AM Scary.
But i personally don't like this one as much. I would ned to see it more to make a real opinion. Title: Re: DS Redesign Revealed Post by: Hydrobond on January 26, 2006, 11:02:24 AM Better than the original.
Would have preferred black. Still looks odd with two screens. Title: Re: DS Redesign Revealed Post by: Izret101 on January 26, 2006, 12:52:34 PM THE NEW NINTENDO DS!*
*Now with only one(1) screen. Title: Re: DS Redesign Revealed Post by: danvx6 on January 26, 2006, 01:11:49 PM Matches the Revolution. Sucks that I just got my DS, but as long as they don't change anything important for the new model, I don't care. If it has better WiFi range, I'll care.
Title: Re: DS Redesign Revealed Post by: CatchFiveBats on January 26, 2006, 05:58:11 PM I wish they had made it a little less angular. The current DS model hurts my hands if I play an action game too much. :-/
::EDIT:: I think this model looks really nice. I agree that Nintendo is kind of stealing from Mac for their designs, but I also think of Nintendo as the Mac of the gaming world. - Mac makes more durable stuff than Microsoft. So does Nintendo. - Macs are extremely easy to use. So are Nintendo systems. - Mac's designs are simple and (IMO) functional. Same with Nintendo. - The only difference is Nintendo has reasonable prices. Mac does not. I think you get the picture. ;) Title: Re: DS Redesign Revealed Post by: TraderJake on January 26, 2006, 06:01:26 PM I believe the smaller size will dimish the effects of the angles on your hands. This is just a conjecture, though. I think it is nice looking. A black one would be nicer though.
Title: Re: DS Redesign Revealed Post by: captain_nintendo on January 26, 2006, 06:06:08 PM Looks kind of remind me of the revolution controller.
Probably going to have to see one in person, but I will still probably get one. Then again, I might wait until they throw a different color out that I like. (and you know they will) Title: Re: DS Redesign Revealed Post by: Hydrobond on January 26, 2006, 06:41:40 PM Are these pictures or drawings?  They look like drawings to me, but everyone else is talking like they are pictures.

Title: Re: DS Redesign Revealed Post by: Zimbacca on January 30, 2006, 10:30:32 AM I think Nintendo needs to stop re-releasing their old stuff and start focusing on making something new. We don't need three different kinds of Gameboy Advanceds, and two DS's.

I wonder how many people buy a second system just for teh color and all to the total sales figures. |
