Ok, so the Nintendo PDF says that it is a true successor, but is it really? [Yes! This handheld will need much more power in order to have the glasses-free 3D display technology]

It has the brand "DS" in the title. [Gameboy Advance has the brand "Gameboy" in the title]

It is compatible with all DS AND DSi games. Does that mean it has a camera too? [Yeah, and probably DSiware (or something similar)]

It's a Dual Screen, hence the moniker.

 

So, it's a DSi that can play 3D games. [No, it's really a new system with much more power and 3D capabilities, but it has the "DS" brand just like GBA has the "GB" brand, which means that the Game Boy Advance is part of the Gameboy family and not a revision for the Gameboy or Gameboy Color. Also, we still need to see the other functions that this new handheld will have, it probably has a tilt function like the rumores were saying]

Isn't the DSi a DS that can play DSi camera based games AND DS games? [Yes because the DSi is just a revision]

 

This seems more like yet another upgrade to the DS. [No, it doesn't. Much more power + 3D and probably tilt function, it's already another system that will have his own cartridges]

What do you think, it's weird right?

 

Thanks for clearing that up with that excellent post, hisiru.
