Rumor: New Dual-Touchscreen Nintendo DS in Early '09

This is on the rumor-ier side, but Brian from Kotaku's man deep, deep in Japan has dropped him a tidbit about a new DS that might be in the works—one that bumps up screen sizes and finally replaces the top screen with a touch screen. The Nintendo DT, perhaps? Anyway, this certainly won't be hitting before Christmas, as Kotaku's source says "early next year" if true, which means a lot of DS-gifted kids' smiles may quickly turn to frowns in '09. It makes sense, given Nintendo's excitement-free showing at E3 this year, and how far touchscreen tech has come since the DS first hit, that something DS-related will be brewing for early 2009.

i dunno about this one.
i dont think its gonna happen.

Double Touch Screens? Impossible. It would be really awkward to play.

Not really, it's not like all games have to use both touchscreens at the same time, and everyone who uses my DS always tries to tap things on the top screen instinctively. Personally, I've been waiting for a DS upgrade so I can trade in my old one with broken L and R buttons so this will be nice.

as long as my r4 works ill upgrade

pointless upgrade if there is one, its doing so well already, this will only hurt their sales
