New DS predicted for Christmas

Analyst says that weak Japanese sales of Nintendo's handheld will see second hardware revision before the end of the year
Nintendo has a history of refining its hardware offerings, and leading games analyst Michael Pachter has, on the back of the firm's strong financials, predicted that the platform holder's world-conquering DS could see its third incarnation hit retail before the year is out.

Isn't this like predicting the sun will rise tomorrow?

We'll know for sure at the Tokyo Game Show (TGS), if not announced there then it won't be this year.

I for one fully expect Nintendo to milk this for as long as they can, I would think Fall '09 more likely than by the end of '08.

Reggie said flat out at E3, no new DS hardware in '08.

I enjoyed both Rush games, I did think the action was sometimes too fast to see what was coming up in terms of hazards though, which meant replaying the same stage a bunch of times, other than that they were enjoyable, good special stages, 3D sections and bosses for the most part.

DS is one of the best consoles of all time. Such a rich library of software
Zelda were all glorious on it.
