Japanese DS for me. I dont see any good games for DS right now but the technology is just to cool to pass up on.

i hope they find a way to get homebrew and emulation working on the baby.

if it is basically a n64 handheld then like the gba with the snes emu we may see some exciting developments.

yea, homebrew for a DS would just OWN....ya may even be able to make something REALLY cool........like a mame emulator or something...that would be pretty slick
