Mental.

I don't get it.

Crap like this? Give it a chance man, you've only been aware of its existence for an hour! Seriously, Nintendo wouldn't pur money into this if they didn't have some damn good ideas for it. I'm not their biggest fan, but I'll reserve judgement until I see what it looks like and how it'll work.

Another failure methinks, which is a shame and great waste of time. Why don't they focus on things that matter instead of crap like this?

Plus the batteries won't last half as long.

Sounds like a pointless gimmick.

"Example - you're playing an RPG, and instead of pausing the game to access the World Map, it's right there on the other screen."

Hehehehhehe.

Seriously though, I don't think it'll work. What about arcade games where the extra screen is not needed? It'll just display score and other useless info.

Nintendo have always been one for weird ideas, for example the original "punch out" arcade had two monitors, and even stranger concepts like the virtual boy. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't.

It'll be like one of those dual screen game and watch affairs they had when I were a wee nipper.
