I've actually already paid for it when I went to blockbuster and it is on pre-order. I wasn't for sure of how many wal-mart where I live was gonna get cuz I there is like a shortage of like 1 million. Nintendo estimated the launch would require 1 million but it turns out there are already pre-orders up in the 2 million.

At any rate I like the idea of the 2 screens and touch screen which was said to be more sturdy than most touch screens from the reviews I have read(Also from reading a scanned manual of the DS I think it was supose to come with a screen protector already on the bottom screen, also wal-mart will have a starter kit having a screen protector for the top screen too).

Depending on how far people are going to be able to go with it I may let my asus a620 rest in peace. What I am looking forward too is pda like applications and web browsing. Also NES, SNES emulation would be nice and psx would be ironic.

That would definitely be cool to have seperate web pages open on each screen. Or have a game going on the bottom screen and web surfing on the top.

Btw Dan, small correction: its Samus not Shamus.

I have to wonder about that. How long is that nice round stylus point going to stay smooth and not scratch the screen? Especially, with a kid.

Or is that a non-issue?
