No problem  ::)

The truth is that nobody really knows. None of the companies have released any info so all anyone can do is guess.

Sorry!

I honestly think Microsoft KNOWS they can't get into the handheld market and beat Nintendo. I honestly think the PSP was the best chance anyone else had to topple Nintendo in the handheld market and Nintendo slaughtered Sony. No matter what happens on the home console front, Nintendo will OWN the handheld market for as long as they choose to.

Hi

It won't be out for a couple of years at the least. I mean, sure, xbox has been out for a year already, but is it not considered by everyone a cool new console of a new generation.

Plus, since xbox won't be making a portable system most likely... well... Nintendo and sony just gave us a new system last X-mas. They want to give the new systems attention. When people get board of the wii and ps3, THEN we'll start hearing some news about a new portable, and even then we'll have to wait for the portable to come out.

Just for fun, what do you think a SuperDS/DS2 would be like? One of my friends said two touch screens, but I think one touch screen works very well, and besides, a new touch screen is not a new system.

This isn't to say that their will be a DS2 though, its just a what if.

rly?  no offense, but i think that idea sucks.  imagia a kid walking down the street throing his Nintendo Wii Portable around trying to get paper mario to jump :D

Most Nintendo portables did very well, I would expect the next one to be good also.

I heard rumors about game machines from Apple/Google.

ew O.o

i can imagine it:
a home console that has a big GOOGLE logo on it and it is the ultimate 'search' machine...

apple might be better (ipods)
