I find you the opinion of DSi only carts making DSi a new platform flawed.

You can view them as like DS peripherals. The cameras are like Balance Board games or something. Again nothing amazing is going to come to DSi only cart. Which is why that is a bullshit excuse imo.

 

But they are essencially different from a peripheral because there is nothing a DS user can buy to be able to play the game other than a DSi.  For it to be like a peripheral there would have to be some camera attachment you could get for DS that would allow you to play DSi only games.

Well going by your view then the DS should be counted as GameBoy Advance sales since it plays the intire libary......

They also seperated the DSoriginal and DS lite... but I don't remember seeing any seperation on the PSP redesigns..... nor is there one for the X360s models, nor were there for the PS3 models.

 

I do not agree with seperating the DS for Ds lite, but the DSI is a different beast from the DS with functionality not in the DS 

 

here is where i break it down, every 360 model is cabable of playing any game that came out, they may need a periferal to do so thats fine.. (the HD is a peripheral )

 

same with the with the PS3 it can play any game made for the PS3

 

the same for any game made for the wii

 

or the psp ...... yes i know in some cases the video get fd up on newer units

cube,  and the xbox were the same way

 

 

the DSi is not the same it has games that can not in anyway shape or form be played on the ds/dslite and there is  o peripheral to fix this 

 

only the ps2 on a few set of sub models has this occurred before and normally not an intended change caused the incompatabiity but rather a mother board redesign (there were lots of them) that was not properly tested before being pushed out. see   SCPH-75001 and SCPH-75002

@goddog... that maybe, but they still did seperate the DS phat and lite, yet they have not seperated anything else (at least not this generation)

Which I find odd.

drama queen much?



It's all about the game.

Sephiroth357 on 10 May 2009

Yes I actually agree.

At the end of the day winning by 1k, or 6k doesn't matter anymore.

So carry on.

I can agree the lite from the fat is BS but the current split is deserved as i stated above
