lol Drum, he meant PC as Windows users, in whcih windows is evil and uses alotof Pent4/AMD artitecture, thats why the G5 mac is about 1ghz or so and runs shit fast fast fast
But the mac still costs more than a PC :p

The specs sound very reaonable to me, it was never going to compete with the PSP graphics wise but maybe in terms of gameplay...
in the Mac ro get mroe of an Artistic style, the mac is decorative :D, plus the coding and shit is better so naturally you pay more

they announced how one screen would be on top of the other, what if that means that one screen is partailly transparent and actually plced in front of the other to create a 3d effect? probably not but just a thaught.
 
the PSP specs are so much better though it has two 333mhz processors right? One for games and one for other stuff, it will probally be able to emulate the GBA. The DS sounds cool wow two screens but I've thought about it and I'd rather have a good sized screen then two small ones.
Completely agree!
 
"This things success all depends on Nintendos ability to prove that there are practical applications for two screens (I see none). Show me some software that makes concentrating on two screens appealing, and ill show you the contents of my wallet" - GMR


"What really makes me curious is what this means for GBA. Will Nintendo really be able to support two different portable systems, especially after the PSP comes out, which will only help make GBA SP look archaic in comparision? Considering that most of Nintendos business is derived from its GBA sales, possibly fracturing its customer base with two different portable systems doesnt sound like the smartest idea ever." - GMR
 
Nintendo Game and Watch on heat? I just hope theres enough third party support for it. Otherwise they'll do a Sega and bomb.

Mind you the 802.11 support could well be the killer thing for this (depending on PSP having it too).

The ultimate (but will never happen) would be to have a cross platform wireless network (or protocol) - so people could play each other irrespective of hardware on the move. Kind of like now with online play with PC and Mac - so many different specifications yet one and all can meet up online for a game or two.
