    Youtube support, an MMO, and Game Boy Virtual Console.

    And the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. That would be awesome.

    DSi specific carts for one thing. Possibly make use of the additional CPU and RAM.

    That would be an absolute deal breaker for me.  Nothing would stop me getting a DSi if they made that happen.  GBA games would be excellent and better still.

    When the numbers of the DS Lite drop off enough and the DSi has huge numbers out there, like maybe 15 million units, there would be no excuse at all not to make a separate range of games clearly identified as for DSi only.

    That's what the Opera browser is for.  I am not a fan of internet on the go though.  I hate using the iPod Touch for it, let alone a DS.

    That's what the DS Lite is for :-)

    Maybe they could make a detachable GBA slot .........

    nah, that would be crap.  We need to move on from the GBA as a current format.  It is retro and as long as we have some device to play it )hell, I have abut 11 of them) then it is all good.

    This. Think about it: Super Metroid. On the GO!
    Ideally i'd have liked a GCN disc reader, but perhaps i set my sights too high.

    Game demos are only available via Nintendo Channel.

    Did anyone get it?  It intrigues me a little, as there are some great titles on it.

    I would like to see full manga books, fully enhanced with appropriate music, sound effects and narration.  With the option to turn off and just read as well.
