Nintendo DS 2

Nintendo DS 2

nintendo-ds-2Back in December, Gizmodo created a wishlist about the next Gen Nintendo DS. Phil Nolan, a 3D artist, liked what he saw there and got to work creating a 3D rendering of what a Nintendo DS 2 could look like. Taking ideas from the iPhone, PSP and Wii the DS 2 pictured above was created. As can be seen, the faces of the device are shiny and the screens are larger then the regular DS. If Nintendo took some advice from Phil they would have a killer looking machine.

    The Nintendo DS2 Has To Be Announced In Japan Summer 2008 And The Nintendo DS2 Has Also To Be Announced Fall 2008 & The Nintendo DS2 Has To Be Announced Worldwide 2008-2009 Because I’m A Fan Of A Nintendo DS2 Because I Wanted A Nintendo DS2 To Be A 2nd Generation Of Nintendo DS & Part Of An 8th Generation Era Because I Wanted The Nintendo DS2 To Be Mine If I Buy The Nintendo DS2 Thank You.

    I really like your creation. I think it’s the coolest thing ever. I like it more than DS lite. I hope it comes out in the store:-) Go Nintendo DS2…. Go Phil!

    I think you should take your model to the Ninetedo company and try to sell it to them. If they buy it, you might make millions.I hope your model comes out in the stores. I loveyour design.

    That Nintendo D.S #2 is totally awesome and I wanted to get it so I really needed very badly and I will get it and I wanted to try it because it is so mad fun and I love it and I was like YHA and I will get it

  • Ethan

    I think they should make the new ds have a slide out screen and the game port be on the side instead of the back and make them in different colors like green purple orange yellow or any other colors and it should be slim and possibly fold up.

  • Ethan

    I think the new model of ds is awsome its shiny and sleek I think everyone including me will like it.

  • gamez

    what about directionnal buttons?
    i wish, a better design of them will be better than ds (which stays the same than gb or gb color…) . something more easy for diagonals directions, and for a half circle. Nintendo disappoints at this point..

  • paul

    the concept looks pretty cool, but what i would really like to see happen is graphics that match up to the psp, better online gameplay, have the internet, and make the ds have music and video capabilities like the psp.

  • …

    It looks OK, but what’s a DS with no GBA Slot?

    Sorry but without GBA Slot = Epic Phail.

    It’s Flat, which is a HUGE Dis-agvantage, because it could break or snap easily, and the game goes into the side?
    what if it were to pop out while holding the side, and pur-lease, people, this is Obviously FAKE, As the Touch Screen and Top Screen can’t be that skinny, because all of those wires and stuff will have to fit, and if compacted too much, would explode while you are playing!

    I Can’t Believe everyone thought this was real!
    Well then again Paint Shop Pro makes almost Everything seem real when you do it on there.

    PLUS: In the THird Pic, did I see a DS Game with Super Mario Galaxy?

    WRONG CONSOLE!
    SMG is for the WII, not the DS, DS Lite or your ‘Ds2′, plus nintendo dosn’t use number’s in name to say Example here, Example here 2, Take the Gameboy, Gameboy Colour, Gameboy Micro, and the Others for Example, they aren’t Gameboy, Gameboy2, Gameboy3 are they?
    No!
    Take the Name, DS (Dual Screen) and Take it To Your Advantage, I dunno, maybe FDS (Flat Dual Screen), That’ll work.

    Your Artist Impression is Excellent, but I just don’t see anything behind it, all I see behind it is a cloud of shadow, waiting to snap the thing in half the day you try to show it to nintendo, because they won’t buy it in, probably because of the reasons I’ve given.

  • …

    Hmm…I’ve noticed, it’s Two IPODS Stuck together!

  • Miss 99

    Its a very good idea i like the wideness of the screen :P
    BUT i dont like the fact the game sticks out of the Ds !

    Also what is the point of a Nintendo Ds2 There is no point of bringing a new one out unless there is new qualitys on it.

    I also have a question — If the Nintendo Ds2 does come out do you have to buy NEW games or can you use the nintendo Ds games that you already got?

  • Ganpeichun

    The nintendo DS 2 is the console every one would want but because of it flat and thin size and its stylus is 2 times longer than the oringinal and one more thing is that base on the picture shown,the cartridge isnt fully insert into the console so if the DS drop to the floor,the cartridge might just crack and thats it for all your games data so many things on this console needs to be improve.but still,the screen size suits me and thats one thing that i like about nintendo DS 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Ashley

    That would be awesome.
    Period.
    But if nintendo made it like that, Apple might sue them >>

  • http://www.gadgetvenue.com Matthew

    Any reason why Apple would sue them Ashley?

  • Alyce

    it looks cool but it should at least machup with the psp like the internet and stuff also online play and music and video capability

  • Dot

    Maybe a Virtual Console with GB/GBC/GBA Games?

  • phillip

    nah nintendo never makes stuff that looks that cool

  • ron

    when does it come out

  • http://www.gadgetvenue.com Matthew

    @B.g – you are correct, it is fake (as mentioned above in the post it is a rendering which means it’s computer generated). Well done for spotting that ;)

    I think the new ds i will be the start of a new generation with technology. And I say good luck to the ds company and i hope i will be able to buy the new ds i and support your company

  • jose

    sorry 2 tell u this but that nintendo ds is not real

    • http://www.gadgetvenue.com Matthew

      Thanks Jose ;) I am sure all the readers know that already :D

  • john

    the top and bottom screen should have the same size for some games uses the bottom screen(less wider). you got to play some games on a bigger screen and some games on smaller ones. which is = sukks

  • john

    if the directional pad is changed to an analog like the PSP, then the bottom screen can be stretched.

  • jj

    they should make a nds with a camera

  • m,, mmkl,m,mkll
