Games People Play Games People Play is where to discuss personal computer, video game console, and arcade hardware and software - be it RPG, Sim, Strategy, Fighting, Action/Platform, or any other category. Although discussion of modern platforms/software will most likely dominate, discussion of classic videogame/computer hardware and software is always enjoyable, and certainly welcome - ESPECIALLY since there are public domain/shareware emulators of nearly every older computer/console available these days. Here's a taste of what awaits you: Nintendo-vs-Sega-vs-Sony, Console-vs-PC-vs-Mac, Hardware spec sheets/information, Industry news and discussion, Software reviews, IRC conference announcements/Reports, Emulators, Emulators, Emulators! ... and much, much more!

Christ they just don't stop milking the cash cows do they? Too bad that DS will still have shitty graphics, except now it's a little more like a PSP with the camera attachment. Or its also like a little thing called a cell phone...

since when did the psp have a built in camera? I know they just added a built in mic to the psp... so it's more like the psp is like the ds. It's nothing like a cell phone. It doesn't make calls... unless you mod it. The psp has skype... that's more like a cellphone, or more like failphone, amirite? As for graphics... seriously? your going to make that argument? When has better graphics ever made a system more superior then the other? Mattel Intellivision, Atari Jaguar, Sega Dreamcast... The PSP is a nice system, but I have never heard anyone rant about how great such and such game is on the system.

Learn to read fucktard. Camera attachment... and cameras are ultimately useless on a gaming device anyway.

What does a phone have to do with anything? I merely made the connection that the DS now has some similar traits to a cell phone, since it has a camera and SD card capability yet Nintendo tries to pass it off as cutting edge tech. OMG camera? I still have my Game Boy Camera.

I'm amazed how you are able to gobble up whatever shit Nintendo spews out. Wow now they are able to get people to waste even more money on them so they can do fun stuff like put their Animal Crossing characters on a SD card and buy things of Nintendos overpriced online store. You're the reason that Nintendo has more money than god and still doesn't cater their games to those who even got them to where they are today in the first place: the loyal, hardcore fans.

I read your statement, and I realized you said attachment. However, that still makes it nothing like the psp. I agree, though, a camera is rather useless, especially since I own a digital camera anyway. Along with this though brings the SD card slot, which thus makes homebrew apps and roms all the more easier.

lulz, I still have my Game Boy Camera/Printer as well. Truly a worthless purchase though.

Honestly what I am more interested in is the fact that both screen are now touch... although some sources do not show this claimed to be fact.

You talk about the "overpriced" store from Nintendo like none of the other two companies have similar stores. Who buys things from those anyways? If the home consoles offered full games as disc alternatives I would.

Oh, so when some other company comes out with a system that does the same thing but costs more money, it's not considered milking the cash cow?

Just because you have no nostalgic feelings towards Nintendo doesn't make them any fucking different than any other company you choose to waste your money on.

They don't miss a beat. Just wait until they have 23582935892358 colors out. I mean,they didn't have enough of them with the DS Lite or anything.

These motherfuckers are almost as bad as Apple with their Ipod line.
