I've heard nothing about this. Was it a concept for the DS? Is it in the works? It looks too similar to the GBA SP. Anyone?

Buh?

Where the hell did you hear about that?

It's a fan-based mockup. When the new DS was rumoured to be coming out (EG the day after the DS was announced in the first place), people started making mockups of a new DS.

Some got passed off as real because people are too retarded to know better.

Last year, Nintendo announced a remake DS (which turned out to be the DS Lite). This is a fan concept that surfaced shortly afterwards, it's never been close to official.

You know, lookingat this mock up, the thing wouldn't be stable. The sides would keep faling over after a while and you'd get frustrated.

No, this came out before there was an announcement.

It'd be horribly fragile is the real problem.

the only good thing i see with this design is the analogue stick... which should be able to pull up

i am so pissed that they didn't include one

[Kane Knight]

You'd have to add new hardware for that, and make new games compatible with it.

Too much work, TBH.

yeah, which is why i was pissed they didn't include one from the start, it'd be useless now

It''s a handheld shits. Cut them some slack. It would porbably be really stiff or reallyloose and very useless as a result.

yeah, i'm just a bit annoyed from having to "emulate" an analog stick from the thumbstrap for mario 64 ds

While they're too stupid to figure out how to make the TS work as an A-Stick, I think a stick on a portable is a bad diea. The PSP nub is fucking stupid, so why elumate it?

[Dorkchop]

I figured it was a mock up. It looks neat.
