Bah, I do. Just haven't seen those triggers.
Sometimes I don't look at pictures when they're of no use to me.

An interestling little titbit for those who didn't know already, both the DS and PSP games/demos on show were all emulated.

The PSP games and demo's were emulated and all the PSP was at E3 was an empty shell with a screen hooked up to a PC. This is according to a few news sources. But none of them have said that the DS was emulated. So I don't know where you've gotten that from.

Now, I wonder if ninty will allow us to use the DS to link to the gamecube instead of the gba ;)

I'm keeping my new NES GBA SP after the DS comes out anyway. Why you ask? I have a couple of reasons:

1)The NES SP is fucking SWEET!

2)The DS will NOT play GB or GBC games. :/

3)Did I mention that the NES SP is sweet?

3) Haha, ya you did :p But I'd rather not use nes sp. Waste of money imo ;)

Huh? I thought the DS would be compatible to the GBA and thus to the GB and GBC Games? Aint that the case?

my understanding is the DS is GBA compatible but not GBC compatible

I´ll check with someone who should know though, rather than some IGN fanboy pulling things out of his ass

The DS only support GBA games, not GBC. This is due to that the GBA actually had GBC hardware in it afaik, while such a thing in the DS would be a waste. I could of course be wrong, but I am almost 100% certain on this info.

Is the battery in the NDS the same as in the GBA? Because if it is i dont see how the battery can last the 10 hours, since its powering two screens this time.

Unless the starting prices of the two systems are other than those predicted by this board, Im sure the NDS will have a much faster start than the PSP. But the PSP will probably sell good when its price is down to a reasonable range, which might happen soon once Sony realizes they're losing their ass. But then again Ninty's systems haven't often had slow sales when they're prices drop. I think we can all agree sales between the two systems is going to be a battle of games. The two companies' games tend to attract two different crowds.

To me the games being run on DS make it look like a handheld n64, which is probably just my way of putting it down so i have a reason not to buy it(because im poor).

A couple questions on the PSP though,
-Does it have 4 shoulder buttons, Or just the vissable 2?
-And with the disc media how will it get over the huge problem of skipping?

I thought the remote moderator was just there to tell rom requesters that they are idiots. Since when does he/it reply to regular topics?

He replies all the time to regular topics, you must not be in the forums much.

What does it matter anyway? It's a person, not a bot.

Dont bite my head off doom I was just saying i thought it was a bot, not a big deal. Isn't there a bot on emutalk that i might be confusing him with?

Anyway about the DS, I was looking around the internet at different stuff and at a tripod site there was a banner advertising the DS with a new picture. Anyone know if its a fake? I think it looks nicer but would be almost impossible to play with the tiny buttons so close to the edge again.
