Something that I always liked about Nintendo when compared to Sony or Microsoft is just that, that they are focused on gaming and everything else is secondary.

On the other hand, the flash storage is neat though, as well as the SD support for downloadable games and the larger screens. Not needed, but still nice. And if the multimedia features are simple ones that don´t get in the way of the gaming ones, I guess that´s not an issue.

Furthermore, like jarrod said, a new “Virtual Handheld” shop to buy GB/GBC/GBA games as well as new original games and from old 3rd party handhelds would make it really interesting… If that gets confirmed, I hope that the games become also compatible with the Wii.

And it´s a shame that the GBA slot got removed… Not only does it affect the ability to play such games, but also those several DS games that use it (besides Pokémon, there´s also the Rumble Pak, Guitar Hero and other games that use connectivity with older GBA games). I´m guessing that there was no choice though, because of wanting to make the redesign slimmer.

Still, I’m a bit shocked at how much Nintendo’s added… internal storage, SD support, camera, larger screens, music playback, web browser, downloadable games and still thinner? Reads more like a fanboy wish list than an actual Nintendo product imo, this is honestly way more than I expected of them.
