I doubt they bring the ice and navy over here though. Black is more likely.

No...thus my saying it was unlikely they'll bring these colours here...

It's worse than you think.
You see, with getting another DS, not only is it one more DS a friend could use to play multiplayer, but it doubles as a permanent Animal Crossing town for everyone to visit.
PREORDERED!!!!!!!
D'oh...

Is there something funky going on with the lighting/angle, or is the DS Lite's screen really that much brighter than the regular DS'? I'm assuming it has to be the angle the picture was taken at.

I've already mentioned countless times how if Nintendo hadn't redesigned their Game Boys and GBAs, I probably wouldn't have experienced Pokémon and other multi-player GB games, or else I would've had to buy more than one of the same model...

QuoteAwesome idea!
There is ONE thing I'd change about the DSL. I'd make those white rims between the two halves a colour, i.e. blue, so it looks even more the the Rev!
Argh, now if the DSL comes in black Nintendo will have their hands even deeper into my pockets. Bastards.

The DSL has 4 light settings to choose from, maybe the DSL is at the max setting, while the DS max setting might be (in comparison) the 2nd lowest seeting for a DSL.

It is.
If you want to see what the new DS screen will look like, go to any store and look at the GBA SP "bright" model. The color saturates so well that you'll have a harder time seeing the pixels in the game at all.

QuoteIs it the new SP screen? or the Micro's screen? I bought one of the new SPs and I feel it oversaturates, actually. The Micro's screen gets it right though. I hope the DS Lite has Micro type screens vs new SP type screens.

It's hard to say, as I didn't see the micro.
However, since the DS Lite has 4 brightness settings, I'd wager that one of them will be an improvement without over saturating.

But what I'm really hoping for is that a bunch of people richer than me start dumping their old DSes when those come out and I can pick up a used original model on the cheap for multiplayer (like I did when the GBA SP came out).

Not only is the brightness and color better...but look at the viewing angle here! The viewing angle was one thing that bugs me about the original DS and it appears to be fixed. If you look at some of the pictures you can also see the buttons have a little more depth to them which I'm betting will feel better when playing games. I've heard the Dpad is still a little "clicky" though so I may still be suffering some extreme cramping while playing Mario Kart

Are you forgetting this is Nintendo we're talking about? They know black will be insanely popular. Therefore, they won't release the DS Lite in black until at least 6 months after launch.

In any case, the picture is taken from the right side, meaning that there is definitely an improvement when it comes to viewing a DS from a different angle, which in turn means that you no longer need to violate someone's personal space bubble when you want to show them something on the DS.

QuoteWell, if the Revolution is any indicator..
