So full of phail is u.

1. Price = based on Japan it will be *at most* $20 more than the DS Lite and I believe IGN quoted Cathy or ?? from NOA that it should be around $130 in the US.

2. Camera = just fine for its purpose. Until very recently almost all cell phones that had cameras where the same quality level. People who will be using the camera on this are the same who use the camera on their phones. They will think it is perfect. Plus, if they add some new cool games with the inner/outer cameras it will rock.

3. GBA slot. umm so? People who have to have that BC will just keep the DSL as it seems they are the same machine. 99.9% of the exact same game base in the in IMO.

4. Screen size. lol, seriously? It's a better quality and larger. .25 is a decent upgrade when your only talking 3.0 to begin with. Plus the DS hasn't had any troubles selling with only a 3.0 screen.

Now you missed the only really drawback. Power consumption. It is undoing the increase in longevity that you gained with the DSL. That kinda sucks, but it will still outlast the PSP.

Then you have the other gains over the DSL. Music and video playback. Potential handheld equivalent of VC and Wiiware, this is huge!!! All via a better wifi technology. So loss of direct GBA slot but gain the potential of all GB lines of games for free, $2, $5, or $8 max. That is awesome! and way better than anything PSP offers.
