New DS will be announced this year, that's what I think, they seem to go with it every 2-3 years.

DS (2004)
DS Lite (2007)
DSi (2009)
3DS (2011)


The DS ones are just console revisions, like PS2 fat and slim, PS3 fat, slim and super slim, the X360 versions, etc. He is talking about a sucessor, like Wii-Wii U. About the OP, simply no, they won't. They don't replaced Gamecube and that was a worst case scenario.

Even if Wii U fail, it's better to wait and plan the gen after. Releasing consoles earlier to fix problems with you current one is a bad idea. Sega did it and things only got worse. You lose your credibility. Besides that, even if Wii U doesn't succeds, it will still sell a good amount and will be enough for the next 6 years at least.


I wouldn't say console revisions, the slim PS2 and slim PS3 are just slimmer, the DS's though added  compeletely different OS after DS Lite and added features such as cameras and more.

 I don't think that's a revision.
