lol anyway, psp does look good but it'd irritate me like my ipod did when i first got it, constantly shining it and crap. Now ive just left my ipod and its a scuffed as well, i cant think of a good analogy.
I reckon that the DS will set a lot of new standards for games.
I'm not so sure about the double screen being set as a standard but wireless and touchscreen for sure. I reckon that pictochat will get more popular the more people have a DS.
All a successor would need would be a PSP style analogue disc and perhaps a little more power and then would you EVER need more from a handheld?
And yes, like you said, because it was an experiment.
But the quality of the machine and games, and the unique experience it provides are by no means characteristics of a filler machine that's just been churned out before the next GB.
If anything, the GBA2 will seem like a step backwards.
Proof that it is a filler, please. A special Nintendo annoucement, if you want.

Nope, Prospekt is right. The DS is supposed to be a filler, hence it doesn't carry the name 'Gameboy' on it...
