Too late in its life? Its only 2 and a half years old. It just turned 2 in Europe a month or 2 ago. Get your mind of the PS2 date since GC came out a different year.

But remember, there still is that ubiquitous Serial Port 2 there. It still needs some kind of purpose.

now jonbo, you get mad at stu for jumping on you. dont jump on me.

my mind isnt on the ps2 date, its on the GC date. The DS wont come out for a little bit yet. and after that it would take longer to develope a DS player to connect to GC when they could be developing it for the new Nintendo in the biggining of its life.

a DS player wouldnt be comeing out now. it would take a year maybe 2, and thats too late in the gc's life.

And there will be L and R shoulder buttons on the final model.

I wasnt jumping on you. I was just stating that the GC is still young.

I don't see why they would realize a DS player anyhow.

I mean it's one thing with the GB, I mean it's like 100 year old and most folks probably played the game on the handheld anyway, the GameBoy Player as well as the Super GameBoy just gave you the option to play on TV.

It would however be weird if for games like Metroid Prime Hunter, where you use the touch screen to shoot. Now that would be a pain in the ass on a TV, especially since mines doesn't have a touch screen.

as i said i doubt it will be made anyway.

however if it was, 'your not thinking 4th dementionally marty'

prolly they would make just the vid come out the screen and still use the touch pad on the DS.

still, i dont think touch screens should even be involved with most games. what would be the fun if you just touch where you want to shoot? be better for games like mario paint.
