New Nintendo DS?

According to IGN, there are rumors that the Nintendo DS’s equivalent of the GBA SP in relation to the original GBA may be announced very soon - as in “this week”.

I don’t know if the “this week” part is true or not, but I predict that it will eventually happen - much like the SP, it won’t have more powerful hardware or anything, but it will be smaller, less heavy, and look better. I don’t know if they’ll change the screens’ size or not. And it may have a couple of extra features, though, again, there won’t be any “DS SP only” games - every single one will run on the original DS.

A rumble pack? I doubt it, since Metroid Pinball already includes one, which uses the GBA port (that port can be used for many things, other than GBA games, did you know?).

A better battery? It’s possible, although the original one is already very, very good.

IGN suggests stuff like image viewing and MP3 playing, to compete with the PSP, but I doubt that. It’s simply not Nintendo’s way.
