I'm saying that if they don't release a new Gameboy to directly compete with the PSP, they're going to lose the handheld market (in my opinion). This is a handheld, whether or not this is the new Gameboy. And if Nintendo is delaying the next Gameboy during this device's lifetime, that's going to be a problem. However, if they're going to be running two handhelds at the same time, they're going to confuse people and possibly shoot themselves in the foot.

I don't know what to say. Everywhere I look I see problems. There are a dozen ways Nintendo could do this and each way I look I see a problem. Only time will tell how Nintendo will do this, but I'll remain skeptical until I see some results.
brings back memories of the virtual boy.

if nintendo would directly compete with sony or microsoft they would crush them. but they dont care they just keep comming out with ideals instead of finished proudcts. thats why sony is outselling them.

I'm scared that this might become another virtual boy. I really like the concept of it, and I"m sure once they unveil it at E3, It'll grow on me some more.

I don't like the idea of Nintendo having two handhelds on the market at the same time though. I'm afraid it'll split the market between GBA and the DS. That wouldn't be bad if they were from two different companies, but since they are both from Nintendo, it could create problems. Of course, this could be avoided if the DS could play GBA games.

But I guess we'll see at E3 where this goes.
