The only thing that REALLY makes me consider trading in my old one and replacing it with an almost exact replica is the lessened loading times...and maybe the lighter design...but, I'd want a confirmation on just how much less the load times are...cause the internal memory is not that much of a deal seeing as by the time you own a few games, you end up grabbing a memory stick anyway. The slim design reminds me of the DS Lite, so that is somewhat nice, but thus far, I can wait it out a bit...I am glad that they're opening them at the going price...it they upped it for the non-packed kit, I'd have had another reason to be somewhat distraught over Sony's decision making. Though they did do enough to the PSP to make it look, and apparently feel nicer...so I'll probably end up getting one, as soon as they start taking the portable world a bit more seriously.

Hmmmm....I don't know. I'm a Nintendo fan, but I do have a PS2, and it's awesome! I'm just looking forward to the Wii. Though, I was disappointed to see that the money I'd saved up for the PS3 will more than likely end up going to my car payment, and I'll have to wait 'til the hub-bub calms down and people aren't paying thousands of dollars to get their console off eBay or something ridiculous like that. I just see this as a kinda sucky way for Sony to repay their super-avid fans....and I know that it'll pass, but it's kinda of a hard pill to swallow for the ones who have had their hopes running high for the past few months. :? P.S. G3n0sI - I see that you're an XboX fan....why do you have a Nintendo Mario mushroom avatar?

I don't know about this pokemon duo release. I've been following the game for a while, but I didn't get the Fire Red or Leaf Green, cause I was waiting for something spectacular....this looks as if it could be decent enough to at least look into...or keep an eye on at the VERY least. Right now, I'm looking forward to Pearl and Diamond to see where they take the series. I'm hoping that it's going to be worth the wait, cause this just doesn't look like it's gonna cut it. Though I've been wrong before.
