Nindendo DS

Who has this badboy?

I love mine. A true quantum-leap forward for portable gaming.

Damn them.
This is at the top of my son's Christmas list. Every year they gotta put me through hell trying to get the new game thingy. Makes life tough on a single Mom!

Please tell me what the difference is between this and the SP?
Should I go out there and hunt one down? Is it worth it?

I should add that to the gripe thread :x

It plays all the old game boy advance games.

But the main deal is that this is an entirely new machine. It plays new games that are amazing and way beyond the old games in quality.

It also has two screens, one on top and one on the bottom, so that adds to the game. Your view can be on the top, and the map can be on the bottom, or whatever.

It also has a touch-screen, so you can control the game with touch. This adds a lot to the type of control you have with games.

It also has 3-d graphics, so you can have games where you venture into a 3-D world, like most non-handheld games use.

It also has integrated high-speed wireless networking, so you can play multi-player games wirelessly. So cooperative and head-to-head play is finally immersive and of a quality that makes it enjoyable and not just a gimmick.

It also has integrated wireless chatting, so you can sit in class and have your friend beam test answers from 50 yards away at the playground.... oops, did I mention that out loud?

It also has voice recognition for certain games, and a built-in microphone.

It's pretty good.
