The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

New Nintendo DS confirmed.

What's more, the DSi features an SD memory card slot, making it possible to take pictures with the DSi and then view them on the Nintendo Wii. The DSi features a built-in browers, and its possible to download games and keep them on the DSi.

That's nice, finally a way to fight against the R4DS and such. Except for the fact that you'd have to pay for downloading.

Might get one of these if my brother's gonna scratch/kill my latest DS  -_-

I wondered how long it would be till a new one came out.  I'm not surprised at some stuff it has, a built in camera, no gba slot, built in browser and some ability to download and store a limited number of games like the wii.

I wonder what use it'll have besides saving pictures taken with the built in camera.  My guess is they'll have an identical thing that the wii has when it comes to gba games, where you have to pay for each time you download a game & you can only save it on the built in flash memory.

The new DS looks rather neat. I'm looking forward to it, and I don't mind the no GBA slot, I still have my GBA and old DS.

I guess the ones who would not miss the no GBA slot are the majority, & those who would miss it are in the minority.  There is the various versions of GBA and the original DS & ds lite that can play them.  & they will likely be for sale so you can download and play them in the dsi.
