Re: New gameboy
Meh. I think the SP design is the best one.

Re: New gameboy
I thought I read somewhere that Nintendo plans to eventually branch the DS into a different market altogether (other than just a portable game system), but keep the GameBoy line specifically a game system.
But I could be wrong.

I imagine they'll tweak the product once they start feeling the heat from the PSP. As of April 29th I knew one person who owned a PSP, I now know 6. All of them were sold on the device after messing around with it for a few minutes.

Or for people who don't want to forget to sit on their phone, and accidentally dial their boss at a bar after they just called-in sick.

You play games (specifically) on these parts of hardware. It's called Gameboy for a reason.
Plus all of the other posts from E3 have gone there. Topics already exist about this there. (Xbox 360, Revolution, etc)

The DS is Nintendo's attempt at combating the PSP. The Micro is just an extension of the GBA family.
