Rumors has been said that when Nintendo DS is released this november, there will be a retail price of $179.99 during the launch date.

For the Nintendo GameCube, over the holiday season, we hear rumors that ALL gamecube games (mostly the new ones, that is) will be priced $29.99 so that would let you have enough money to buy 2 or more games over the holiday season! :P

But they are rumors after all...you people think you can buy the Nintendo DS for $180? I don't know if I can...

at least it's not like it'll be $500 like the Playstation 3 lol :D
 
Think about this...

Gameboy Advance SP is $100.
Gamecube is $100.

I'd rather spend my money on a Gamecube. I think that $180 is an expensive price tag for the Nintendo DS. :crazy:

But Gamecube don't come with a LCD monitor, and DS come with two LCD monitors. Both of GameBoy Advance SP and DS monitors are backlit too as well.

You should take another look at the specs for Nintendo DS, they include far more features in comparison to Gameboy Advance and Gamecube. Nintendo DS is capable of using Stylus technology, Wi-Fi technology too as well. You also can play with other friends without the need of buying another game cart, which is a good thing.

Plus, they already have a massive library to start with.
 
If only Nintendo would make their systems backwards compatible, I'd enjoy them more. Right now, the Gameboy Advance SP can play Gameboy Advance games, Gameboy Color games, and Gameboy games. I want to see Gamecube playing Nintendo 64 games. I want to see Nintendo DS playing Nintendo 64 games! :(
 
speaking of Nintendo 64, I saw some pics of Super Mario 64X for the DS...

some sort of mini-mario party game that takes place in the world of super mario 64 game that was on the N64...I think I saw some pics where Mario, Lugi, Donkey Kong and Wario were "fly-racing" wearing their wing caps or something like that lol

OMG!!! It isn't $30 but, it is only $50 bucks. You're a noobie!! LOL!!
 
From Official Nintendo DS Overview webpage:
Dual Slots: Nintendo DS makes a vast library of Game Boy® Advance games readily available. Developers could find ways to make new connections between GBA games and DS games. The GBA port could be used for new hardware, enormously expanding the functional expandability of the DS.
This feature got me 100% to buy.

One thing more...Nintendo had 60 new games under developing for Nintendo DS as official news said. :P
