I read that the DS is a "third pillar" so I was wondering if Ninty will release another game boy handheld?

They may say the DS is the 'Third Pillar' but everyone treats it as the replacement for the Game Boy. Heck, the DS (not DSi) can even play GBA games.

It's not getting boring. Just because you don't like the games, or are bored with them, doesn't mean that the system itself is boring.

I've played new-to-meN64 games and they are just as fun as my Wii. I think it's the game, not the system(most of the time).

Nee nee.

And I still don't see why people are so excited for Scribblenauts. :x

Even though I did pre-order mine, but we all know the real reason why that happened.

I doubt another gameboy is coming. I'm pretty sure they just didn't call the DS a gmaeboy because they weren't sure how well the idea would do, and they wanted something to fall back on.

DS is a Gameboy. All Nintendo has done is killed a name. There's plenty of games that don't require touch controls. In fact, some DS games are more comfortable with regular button control.

Why won't people give up on the gameboy and move on with the DSi?

if they did it would obviously have to be a powerful system that would be very unlike the gameboy.

I think there's a chance. The DS really wasn't supposed to replace the Gameboy, but it ended up doing just that.

Makes me think of a certain "third pillar" that isn't suppose to replace DS and will have its own games....

but asking Ninty to drop the DS brand name is like telling Sony to stop calling there consoles Playstation

it was just a back up plan. if DS hadn't succeeded they could go back to GBA

honestly, i believe Nintendo knew and wanted Ds to be the new handheld all along but their smart, they know how to introduce a new handheld

I always thought calling it a "gameboy" was politically incorrect... you see, I am a girl and I have had every Gameboy that existed.

you see, nintendo thought "most gamers are boys. so lets name it "gameboy" because it would be the essential gaming machine for all boys over the world". bad choice :P well i'd never think of the game boy as "game for boy", but rather just a name. sure, if you stop and think, you'd see it has that meaning, but if you dont, it's just the name of a handheld videogame... which happens to be synonym of "portable videogame" for most people (how many times did someone call your DS a gameboy?)

What for, it would be a step back. Unless they plan to make another portable system that plays all 3 generation of GameBoy games. I kinda doubt thatthey make anything new gaming wise, when they could be working on the DS/i with far more superior graphics & sounds. Let's face it, the DS has hit thepinnacle of portable gaming for Nintendo, & thatthe GameBoy is going the way of the VirtualBoy & other older systems but only more popular &/or memorable.
