<div class="IPBDescription">This is a poster-fueled thread</div> They had a Nintendo DS sitting on display in Best Buy and I got to play it. I would have to say that it's freaking awesome.
1) How did it feel in your hands? 2) Did the control feel ok? specially the touchscreen? 3) Can I touch you? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Oh, and the DS sounds hawt, too bad that's just another thing that I won't have the time/money to play/buy.
Thanks to one of my friends having an aunt that is the district manager of babages (yes I know it sounds wierd) I should be able to (hopefully <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> ) get it a day before it comes out, or at least make sure I'll be able to get one on release.
He did get pokemon gold a week before it came out, but that was years ago.

why is nintendo releasing another handheld anyway? they already have a corner on the market, they're only competing with themselves. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd--> They have to compete with the super-hyped PSP from Sony. Though I feel the GBA (being backwards compatable and supporting a library of rather immense proportions) is capable of this, I think Nintendo fears that the technological superiority of the PSP will sway customers. Thus, the only way to keep their virtual monopoly on the handheld market is by releasing the DS.
On annother note, I have come to the conclusion that Wikipedia contains entirely too much information.

IT shouldn't be out on the floor for another week or so but meh. I've played with it in the warehouse at my store. It's just like the pictures. I'm just curious how the touch screen will stand up to abuse. Nintendo products are known for their longevity but this new stuff has my a little worried.
It's a shame that the majority of the games I want for the DS aren't scheduled for release until January (Mario 64 and Crystal Chronicles being the exception), so I won't be getting one until then.
What am I saying, shame... it's a good thing. I've already got enough games to buy this week.

Well actually, how is Super Mario 64DS? That's the game I'm getting first. Is pictochat pretty cool too?
2) Did the control feel ok? specially the touchscreen?
3) Can I touch you? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

STAY ON TARGET
This thread is now (once again) about the Nintendo DS
**edit** oh yes, and it's good to hear the controls feel fluid, fluidity is the most important thing.
your making me feel all excited for some reason
1.) How did it look. We all know the pictures of what it looks like, but in person, does it look good or bad?
2.) Size-wise how did it feel, besides the buttons.
3.) How did you use the stylus and still use the buttons? Was there any interruptions in the flow?
