I am fine with a new one, but...... I want the first one first then hit me with something new. And nintendo is creative enough to work something out with the button scheme. I bet next gen handheld will have 4 buttons though, and possibly a analog, but not one that sticks out, maybe have an inzerted analog, where there is a little ditch for your thumb and you could roll it nice and easy, that would be confortable.
