I think Nintendo should scrap any new plans for a Gameboy and just stick with the DS. Their next handheld should be like the DS, but perhaps more powerful and maybe dual touch screens or something like that. Gameboy was great, but it's truly the the direction the DS is taking that should continually be explored.ZhengiActually with what I have in mine, the GB would become completely VC in the new product. The could still sell the archaic line right along side the new line, just like they did when the switched over from the GBA to the GBA SP.
First of all, having 101 features did not really help Sony PSP (as in, being number 1 in the market place), so, I ask you, why in the world would be any different for Nintendo?
Plus, I thought Nintendo was "all about the games?" Needless to say, non-gaming features have never really been Nintendo's "thing," and I doubt that will change anytime soon...
In addition, MP3s have popularity to the point where that kind of feature would be more useless, than anything else...
Furthermore, all of that talk "third pillar" was nothing more than propganda. Honestly, notice how GBA, more or less, basically "died" when the Nintendo DS hit the scene? Most likely than not, if Nintendo were to release another handheld anytime soon, it would probably hurt the sales of both devices.....and seeing how the DS continues to have stong numbers, it would simply be error judgment if Nintendo were "jump" onto its next handheld before the Nintendo DS has finished its life cycle...
Honestly, did you learn nothing from Sega?
Edit: For my liking, more or less, the only thing I could see being something useful of what you mentioned is the idea of being able to download "classic" handheld games to N2H2 (Nintendo's Next Hand-Held).
Anyhow, with all of that being said, if next handheld from Nintendo is going to have any conectitivy features, it should be with the console after Nintendo Wii, not the Wii itself, seeing how DS will already be having that base covered...
