I think I'm going for the idea of Crash (And GM).
Or the online thing.... it would be cool to play AGB online.

I guess Crash is closer to the company than anybody...he's probably right, although that should be pretty neat, I dont think it's gonna be a huge seller or anything for Nintendo. I was hoping for an announcement for something to compete with the PSP, but oh well. Some places have hinted at the PSP going for 300-400 dollars, and im sorry, but not enough people will pay that for a handheld. Simple as that.

Nope, not the GameEye (since that's not a stand alone system but a peripheral anyway)

From the-magicbox.com:

- Nintendo confirmed to Famitsu magazine that they will present a new game system at E3 2004 in May. The machine is not a successor to GameCube or GameBoy Advance, this product can play back existing game titles. (Editor's note: Further hint that the new machine is a variation of iQue Player?)

that would be ghetto if it was a variation of the I-Que Player. (even though I'd probably get one)..... but it is ghetto unless it is battery operated with a screen already attatched!! If they can make a 64 that small, they should be able to come out with their successor of the GBA like next year with 64 style graphics, not those crappy PSone graphics that are on the n-gage. Makes you wonder what Nintendo has in the works!

Nintendo will have 64 style (or at least better) graphics on their next handheld. If the N-Gage can do PS1 now, then in a year or 2, the next GBA can do much better. Hell, Sony is claiming their PSP can do nearly PS2 graphics, so why can't Nintendo?

Price, probably... Or maybe just being stubborn...

I'm curious as to what the new dealy is...
I've been hoping they'd do something to make NES/SNES games easilyerish available to gamers nowadays, not having to pay high prices at used game stores, or risk getting ripped off buying from seperate buyers... But I'd rather them just release more compilations on NGC or something...

Yeah it would be perfect if they'd build a machine that would play ALL the cartridges. Plus have an option to DL games (with charge of course). That way nobody would have to mess with a broken NES or numb controllers.
