"If SMG was on DS as a *secondary* port type of deal, that would be fine, but if that was it and that was all Nintendo offered? I can't see how that benefits the game in way, shape, or form."
That wasn't what you wrote.
"There's nothing really to debate. Nintendo has said all along they aren't against HD and will offer an HD console at some point."
You were NOT debating that. You were claiming blu-ray was the obvious choice for the next system, and that HD can only benefit games, and that HD Nintendo would make us not want to "go back" to their older games.
Now you seem to be trying to avoid those when called on them.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
