I was thinking the same thing. If it is a DS Micro, I don't think I would buy it. The screens are already small enough.

If a remodel of the DS was released I would want it to have a better screens, ones that are easier to see in bright light.

July 14 - 17

Remodels sells well in Japan and that is maybe what Nintendo wants?

I agree with the OP:

What do you guys think the name will be.

I don't think it will be micro, Nintendo is away from bad marketing decisions. (Micro has fallen out of favor with the GP)

Not great names but it's a start

Smaller DS:
DSgo (my favorite of the bunch)
DSnano (probably not)

More functional DS (MP3s, video, camera):
DSvideo
myDS
DSplayer

Joke Names:

Power saving hand crank and solar panels:
DSearth
DSgreen
DScrank

Others:
DSphone
DStalk

OMG Nintendo announced NDS AIR!

Nope sorry we wont see New DS model till next year.

i think any changes to the DS will be minor, there is nothing wrong with the machine and its selling incredibly well, major changes could affect that.

Slightly bigger screens and better speakers would be nice.

Why would we even want a new DS model? The one we have right now is about as small as you could possibly get while still maintaining the screen size, GBA slot, and comfort in your hands.

I'd rather see a new DS 2 system. But not until next year's E3 at the earliest..

I would welcome a redesign of the DS, but I certainly don't want it any smaller than it already is. It's already difficult enough to handle for larger hands. I ask for only a few things from the new DS:

1. An SD card slot.
2. A media player.
3. A classic system emulator with support for downloaded VC titles off the Wii.
4. An embedded PIM application. No reason it shouldn't have capabilities on par with 10-year old Palm Pilots.
