Good thing, PSP doesn't have a touch screen which would have resulted in adding silly things (photo effects?) to a gaming device. Nintendo currently is good for kids only. They should launch an Adult version to justify using adults for this video.

But, I only play harvest moon with an old SP once and a great while.]]>Feb 20th 2009 10:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/20/nintendo-dsi-gets-its-own-video-tour/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/20/nintendo-dsi-gets-its-own-video-tour/
I think the ad is well-planned and will hit on so many levels for them they'll continue laughing as they their bank balance grows.

In short, Nintendo doesn't care for hard-core gamers, or at least they're not its main meal ticket. For good or bad, they are going where the money is.

I think they have done wonderful things making the DSi a far more social device. The PSP, god bless her, I love for its multimedia capabilities, widescreen awesomeness, fantastic sound, native movie playback, drag n drop interfacing with PC, etc. but Nintendo are really playing to their strengths here, I feel. The touchscreen is being used to good effect, so really it's a device quite unlike the others out there, despite being 'low-tech' in many areas.

All in all, I feel strong 'win' for Nin' with this product.

(Not to mention a 100 million voted for bush, and there are hundreds of million of religious people, and the shopping channels sold a 100 million of dodgy products, what's your point exactly?)

I don't own any console though nor do I own a portable gaming device, but I can recognise BS and last year's technology and a screen of the resolution the nintendo dsi has just doesn't cut it in 2009, deal with it, there's only one fanboy here and he's recognisable by a fanatic determination to deny the simple facts.

I do see your point that games matter though, but there's no reason to not demand some basic 2000's stuff to go with the games, and the ad video doesn't even mention any games really, it's all about photo's and music, it is they who decided to put in 2 cameras but keep the screen low resolution, well then they should also accept they will get some scorn.

Last but not least I'd like to point out that I hate sony due to their practise of trying to install crap on my computer using sneaky ways.

I use it to play with my kid who also loves it.
Clearly we will continue to have a ton of fun with a pair of these.
Nintendo knows how to make a portable system. There is plenty of software and new features to keep the DS alive for years to come.
All that being said I still love my Apple Itouch. IMJHO it is the BEST TOY a person can own.

I want to play GAMES. Not browse the damn web on my game device. Our phones, hand held gaming systems, console systems, computers, tablets, netbooks, cars, pretty much everything does everything. When does it end? How about some standards you know? INFORMATION OVERLOAD!

No thanks.]]>Feb 20th 2009 12:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/20/nintendo-dsi-gets-its-own-video-tour/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/20/nintendo-dsi-gets-its-own-video-tour/
My concern is when - while trying to be all things to everybody - a device loses its core competencies, or does what it does less usefully or with more mucking-about. I don't think Nintendo have crossed at in any way, shape or form here; ie. it still pretty much looks and feels like a DS, plays like a DS (I presume, having never felt it), doesn't make things more complicated, etc. Its focus on gaming hasn't been diluted, IMO.

At the same time if they released a device without major reasons for people to buy it, many would complain it's not worth the upgrade. I think they have done extremely well.]]>Feb 20th 2009 10:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/20/nintendo-dsi-gets-its-own-video-tour/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/20/nintendo-dsi-gets-its-own-video-tour/Feb 20th 2009 1:02PM
