Portable Gaming Revolution

We all know that Nintendo absolutely loves to practically print their own money by re-releasing many incarnations of what is basically the same product - i.e. GameBoy, GameBoy Mini, GameBoy Color, GameBoy Advance, Gameboy Advance SP… I could go on, and on and on.

Keep in mind that this is mere speculation at this point, but the folks over at Joystiq did a little digging into some rumors flying around the Japanese message boards that we might be able to expect… you guessed it, yet another release of the DS sometime in 2007. This one is supposed to sport larger screens, a whole 3.5 to 3.8 inches compared to the current 3 inches across on the DS Lite version. It doesn’t sound like a whole heck of a lot bigger, but I’m sure it’ll make a huge difference!

I suppose I can’t begrudge Nintendo too much for their multiple handheld systems, considering that I own pretty much each and every single one of them… including both a regular DS and a DS Lite. We’ll see about this new one if it does, in fact, get released. I might just have to splurge to get that awesomely larger screen!
