I was thinking, with rumors or facts circulating about the release of a new Game Boy in the relatively near future (usually used in conjunction with anti-DS remarks) What exactly should we be expecting? it probably is looking too far into the future, but how exactly would nintendo be able to sell this thing with everyone out there enjoying their touch screens? (There's probably no real answer right now, but crude estimates, rumors, prayers, and guesses are welcome.)
Make it like the GBA SP, but with a larger screen and 4 face buttons = instant sale for me.
probably a battery life of 10-12 hours, and the power of a GC or less. Some kind of odd, fancy, Nintendo only could think of coding games on fruit roll-ups type media, a backlight, headphone jack, and hopefully some fucking games by launch.
Personally, I think Nintendo is making a bad move in the realm of, just because we can launch another Gameboy, doesn't mean we should, but hey, thats why they make money and I don't.

You know, I heard these rumors before I bought the DS...but I'll still be pissed if the launch a new GameBoy in the next year or two. :P
Whatever it takes to make all that money...
Wider unit with an Analog thumbstick?
If it was a bit wider, and had the screen quality near PSP .. it would be an automatic buy for me too. I still play my GBA more than any other console I own.
Why not just buy a PSP?Quote:

If either the PSP or DS get sny games that interest me, then I'm not going to hold out for the next GB.
I'm pretty sure I started this rumour, and on this board..
