Do people actually think they'd release a big game like Zelda on a userbase ~100mil smaller than it could potentially see?

I don't think core gamers have anything to worry about. Third parties won't be releasing their core games for such a small percentage of the DS userbase. Why would they? The only extra usable feature I noticed is the camera. I'm thinking most of the exclusive software to DSi is going to be more utlility than games anyway, the sort of stuff that people on these forums don't care about.

I don't think the main draw of the DSi is for more gaming possibilities. It looks to me like Nintendo simply wants to expand its audience, and the new people they're targetting definitely aren't interested in Zelda.

edit: I'm only talking about retail games here. I'm just assuming Nintendo isn't going to abandon a userbase of 100mil+. No idea how the DSi store will change things though.
