It can last forever. Just like any other console you take care of properly.

You must be like 10 years old. Look how long the Gameboy has been around. The PSP will ultimately fail, much like PS3.

Well put.

Now that we talk about it, we know the DS wont be lasting forever.
Since all good stuff will have to end one day, and a new handheld by Nintendo will come out sooner or later, replacing the DS.

But i really wonder what kind of handheld console Nintendo will design and make to replace the DS? Maybe it's time for the futuristic projector handheld? xD

Both unexpressably incorrect.

lol What the heck dude. The PSP or PS3 arent failing. There is room for 2 handhelds in the market, and certainly enough room for 3 consoles in the console market. After all, Nintendo is doing just fine after almost 12 years of domination from Sony right? Well, the DS is completely dominating the PSP, but the PSP isnt failing either. That's some crazy logic there.

Anyway, I kinda was wondering the same thing the thread starter was. I was debating on buying a DS now or waiting for Nintendo to come out with a new handheld. I went ahead and bought a DS, and it's freaking awesome. Longlive the DS.

Wasn't there originally a 10 year plan for the DS so there's probably 7 more years of the DS before nintendo comes out with another system

If you're talking to earthmonkey, you're horribly wrong. What do mean "wow....just wow.."? You sound like a whiny baby, oblivious to the fact that hes right and your wrong

IDK about any new systems coming out from Nintendo, but I have read that they are redesigning the DS and the new model should be coming out soon. I think it will be the same price as the current DS. It is supposed to be smaller and sleeker, achieving this by removing GBA compatability.

Well, to be fair, UMD's were never a big peice of the PSP's pie. It was supposed to, but never took off. The PSP is/has been what it is without UMD the whole time.
