What....? The only good thing about that thing is price. I mean, at least with the "2D only" thing, they can improve battery life..... Sigh....

Budget console $$$$

Yeah, I guess so....

I know they want to maximize profit, but I still think giving bigger battery will not increase overall cost of this handheld too much.

To sell the system for $129 is an amazing feat. You should realize that with inflation, the only Nintendo console to be this cheap was the GBA Micro ($99 in 2005 is about $120 now), and that was physically a much smaller system. Gameboy Colour in 1999 would have been $140 in todays price, and I think DS sells for $100 now, but that's an obsolete system.

Hmm.... Well, I think I put it that way only because I just want 3DS system that have the same/better battery life than DS system.... and yes, you're right. With that price, it's hard to make any improvement for the system....
