Kid Icarus would be amazing. But that link could also have been easily photoshopped.
I never knew why they never came out with any other under that franchise, it was such a great game. Tough too.

I've read that Target is supposedly honoring the $99.99 misprice of the DS that was offered in their catalog. Has anyone gotten them to do this? Joystiq.com says that if you bring in a copy of the catalog, they will honor the price and if they don't, they can call the 800 customer service number.

If I continue to use the DS the screen will break off completely. So hoping my store would replace my system the boss said that we can't, we only cover defects and not accidental damage. I guess theres no accounting for employees huh? I just emailed Nintendo, hopefully they can replace my system its only a year old. Im fighting every temptation to run down to my store and buy a micro so I can keep playing Gunstar Super Heroes, and Zelda-Minish.

Good news all around:
Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time recieved a 9.0 from IGN
Target is honoring the misprint price in their catalog (you have to show it to receive it) DS for $99.

Did they just match it or beat it? And don't they usually require that you print out the final invoice including any shipping and handling?

GP - It should be the same screens that made there way into the new SP.
That mock up is missing speakers...
Nintendo only hinted at this, there is no set date or anything. If history is an indicator it wont be out until next November.

I really don't like this trend for nintendo. Up until recently, every redesign that they have done was for a more pratical or technological reason. Now they seem to be redesigning just for the sake of redesigning. I guess it isn't a big deal as noone is forcing anyone to have the latest model but it does make me second guess as an early adopter.

I think the SP was a great redesign and really needed it. I still defend that it would not have been possible to come out with a better GBA at the time for under $100 like Nintendo did. All those improvements were necessary over the original GBA. But the micro? Not necessary. I understand they are trying to cut a profit but it isn't really like Nintendo to do something that isn't beneficial. And now they are talking about redesigning the DS? I don't think they could really change it enough to make it a worthwhile redesign.
