I say 4G should've been the target, as I hear it's better than 3G. It's one more G, after all.

can't have to much G now can you...

I will laugh when all the early NGP adopters rage when a 4G version is released a year after release 

That would really only be the case if 3G was a major feature of the system. SONY's already confirmed 2 sku's, the cheaper of which will be WiFi only. No 3G at all. 

3G is just an extra for those that want it.

Nintendo could have made models like that. But it may confuse casual consumers which are now the biggest market for Nintendo games and consoles. Also who says that the 3G version would sell enough units to warrant its inclusion.

Consumers seem to have no problem with the various models of iPod Touches and no confusion with both the DSi and the DSLite selling at the same time...

The difference between the two NGP skews is even simpler... "Do you want 3G or not?". Once it's labelled on the box and they see the price difference I really don't think anyone's that stupid to ... wait... nevermind, there are some really stupid people out there.

And who says it wont? Actually, a better question: What the hell does that have to do with Zarx said which is what I was talking about?
