Mr.Iwata (president of Nintendo) confiremd that The Nintendo Ds will connect to The Nintendo Revolution. The thing I'm wondering is, what would they do? Will it act as a second controller? Help you Unlock things? What do you think the Nintendo Ds and The Nintendo Revolution will do together?

I'm thinking it'll be similar to the GBA-GCN connectivity. I just hope it also has connectivity with the Next-Gen Game Boy as well, and if a multiplayer game does rely on it, they make it online.

One thing I would like, if the Rev. will have ethernet cable jacks, because I would rather play that over using my wireless router, and if that's the case then I would like it if you could connect your DS to your Rev. for instant online play.

I would like to see DS have downloadable demos via Revolution. You could download the demos onto your Revolution, and then send them to your DS with the systems' Wi-Fi abilities.

The thing with the DS' downloadable demo feature is, once you turn the system off, the demo is gone, so I don't know if Nintendo will want to do that.

You could just go download it, again from your Rev.

You could just go download it, again from your Rev. Or maybe it would be better if Nintendo would release a blank GBA cartridge for the DS's GBA expansion slot to save downloaded DS demos, instead.

Yeah, or maybe on Play-yan(as maybe an optional HD for DS.) if you save DS demos on Play-Yan to SD cards. I know this is an MP3/MPEG4 add on for Nintendo's handhelds(GBA/SP and DS), but it would be nice if the Play-Yan has HD capablities to save your DS demos to play over and over again if you want.

You know, I never thought of that... SD Cards via Play-Yan are the perfect way to save stuff like that.

@ Jason-RN
Yes, I think it's another good option.
