Just when you thought you were safe from its terror... tEH MeGAton RETURNS!!!!

Exactly, its not a popular format like the DVD is so that somewhat negates that plus... not completely, but somewhat. Having to buy movies AGAIN will not go over well. And MP3s? If you can't record to the cartridge, not many people will care.

Well so far we know very little about how it's all going to work, so let's wait until we do before we continue this discussion.

I don't think many people will buy it because of that feature. Buying movies on again and only being able to play them on the PSP and with a small screen isn't going to turn people on to it.

The screen size won't be an issue. If you can play complex 3D games on a screen that size then you can certainly watch movies on it. But like I said above, let's wait until we find out more about how watching movies on the PSP is going to work before we continue this.

They'll probably do that either the same as the N-Gage where you can transfer MP3s off your computer and onto a memory card, but that will me buying extra memory cards just for your music. Again, not something that will turn people onto it, I think.

Not if Sony uses their widely-used memory sticks. People already use them for digital cameras and mp3 players, so it wouldn't be like having to buy a brand-new type of memory stick that will only work with one device. The lower-memory sticks are also pretty cheap.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and with no basis at all say that the next GBA will be $150 or less. But, we shall see.

I sincerely hope you're wrong, because that would most likely mean that Nintendo would be sticking to cheap parts (i.e. carts) and it wouldn't be as powerful as the PSP.

It MIGHT go as low as $200, but I think $300 is a much closer estimate.

Probably.
