That is too bulky. I like the design though.



Too blocky, and It looks exactly like the DS.



thats on deviantart its fake and dammit i still only 6 deviantions!



Interesting, but some notes:

1) Both screens need to be the same size, whether widescreen or not. Many games have gotten a lot of use out of using the two screens as one for displaying certain things, and if they're different sizes then that gets severely compromised.

2) The PS2 taught us that pressure-sensitivity for buttons is a bad idea. Keep them digital.

3) If the power switch is going to be a push button, then it needs to be moved to the front, the back, or some other location that won't be covered by the user's hands when the machine is on.

4) Where are the speakers?



Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.

Looks like a first try at the original DS, looks too big. I like the wider screen idea, but I doubt they will go with a biger handheld than the DS Lite, I mean, remember Nintendo always goes smaller and smaller.



pretty ugly if you ask me.



That doesn't look nearly as cheerful and user-friendly as the DS or Wii, so nothing like that plz.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

That design is powerfully stupid for a variety of reasons. For one, it's just a bigger, uglier DSlite. Nintendo would not put out just a big ugly equivalent to what they have now. The successor to the DS will be vastly different from the DS, of which, I'm pretty damn certain. Hell, it may not even be dual-screened. But one thing is certain, that particular artist has no imagination and only bulkified what Nintendo already made.

The sequel to the DS will be far more creative than that claptrap.



100% ugly
