    Dang, that kinda pisses me off. I bought the DSi when it came out. At least mine is low-profile...

    You know that you're loosing credibility when the rest of the world is getting new electronics and release date for you is unknown. It's terrible how a small group of people makes us American seems like idiot. Go out and learn about other country/culture. Just because it's not English doesn't make it weird symbol. It's not like English is such a beautiful language.

    I agree, I always feel like we are the last to know. But the way I look at it, by the time we get it bugs are usually found and fixed. I wait a few months before buying electronics just to be safe. Same thing with updates, never know when a PS3 update will kill your PS3...

    And for the second point, I agree, English is so complex and filled with millions of rules and guidelines. It's so complex, I feel English teachers have it the worst in school. I could not teach English if my life depended on it.

    I find it strange that the progression of technology went from lets make things really small and then wait now lets make them bigger.

    I'm glad I didn't bother buying a DSi when they were released. Me thinks that Nintendo should spend more time to release a greatly improved/different console with a longer time period between, rather than a new one every 1 or 2 years with hardly anything changed/new.

    And yes, it is Japanese, with an estimated 120 million native speakers. Native only, not including western people such as myself (gaikokujin) who are learning it. Here's a thing to consider: If you learn Japanese, you could play inported games waaay before they're released in America or Europe or wherever you may be - if they're even released there at all.

    Anyway, until my DS Lite dies, or they stop making games for it, it's a keeper!!
