2 screen means more challenge but more ruining the screen LOL

Maybe they will include a wipe that removes some marks like Apple does with the iPhone!

I really don't see much point in that.

I do not see the point of 2 touch screens.
If newer DS games can still be played on the Current DS lite/Original. I guess I won't have to buy it.
How ever, If games are only coming for that I will have to get it lol.

I just thought of something that will make the Double Touch DS a cool idea. Imagine using the touch screen to play something like a game of chess on one DS, where it sits flat like a chessboard and both players can move their peices like an actual chess game.

Other applications can be used to, but it can basically make multiplayer move from single-card play via DS download, but single hardware play...

It can also be used for a much larger touch screen interface, utilizing two screens to use both screens for visuals and making the interface less cluttered...

Lastly, it can be used so that two stylus' can be used for more complicated handheld games...

Just pitching out some possibilites...

that would be sweet...
i still need a regular DS....
but i would SO get a double DS

JamestheFreak · 08-28-2008, 12:04 AM

thats kind of stupid to me one touch screen is enough but if it helps the sales in japan then i guess they can try

Mayhem · 08-28-2008, 12:51 AM

people are judging a lil premature don't u think? Were not gonna find out until we have some games to try out with using this extra screen? I believe its gonna make DS games alot more challenging! Nintendo doesn't just slap something 2gether and market it 4 cash... "/me points @ sony"

hehe

It sounds awesome to me but i quess time will tell

Gurrah · 08-28-2008, 05:24 AM

sounds good, but im not sure why they need a second touch screen

By measure of sheer volume, August is proving to be rumor season. In yet another tidbit of hardware gossip this month, Kotaku is reporting that Nintendo is in the process of updating the Nintendo DS. The news comes, Kotaku says, via "several industry sources outside of Nintendo," which have indicated that the revitalized DS will feature bigger screens on the top and bottom, the former of which will now be touch-enabled. Naturally, a dual touch-screen DS would offer new and exciting interactive play styles, and with them a new crop of games.

The leak comes at a relatively awkward time--post-E3 and GC, and with the holiday season just around the corner. Kotaku's sources maintain that the official announcement will not hit the wire until early 2009, which again, is an unconventional timeframe for such a significant redesign.

Bolded some new facts.

Netto Hikari · 08-28-2008, 07:59 AM

Im not to excited about another touch screen. But im totally razzed about it possibly being larger screens!

I will definatly be in line to buy this if they do release something like this xD
