Ok as far as the DS touch screen and the comments about fanboys taking it as an item from heaven you guys are worng. The touch screen idea for *GAMES* was never really explored until Nintendo released the DS. Many people liked this and love it now. I personaly do like it, but I am not a fanboy of the DS. I know my opnion is biased but people can not blindly take everyone's comment about how they like the DS as a fanboy comment. And as for the GC/Nintendo sales doing bad they need to realize that Nintendo is more than just the GC, not like it is doing bad, and has the GBA series and the DS. So even if the GC was a failure they still have the GBA series and DS line that preform very well. Many people may not consider them "consoles" but they are they play games which if I'm correct thats what many consoles are designed to do, NES, SNES, N64, PS1, PS2, GC, Xbox, Xbox360 are all designed to play games, granted some do more, but you need to play games in order for it to be a game console so they are consoles by general definition.
