Looks very nice indeed. Let's hope it's not too expensive otherwise I won't bother investing in one.
The faceplate stuff if a nice option. I'm now wondering how long it will take Nintendo to redesign the DS like tthey said they would. Do they really need to though?
the t-1000 is the liquid metal one... removing its flesh would look the same... just a bit smaller.... the arnold model is a t-800... which is what i assume you where talking about.

GI.biz had a interview with someone from Nintendo Europe who said that he thought the Micro would be priced between the DS and the SP - £85.
That's a bit too high for this device, I think. I'd rather pay a little less and get an SP. The micro could probably retail at up to £70 and still attract a large number of sales.
Looks good though. I hope SPoNG will be me in mind when it starts giving away the latest Nintendo hardware ;).

In my opinion, they do need to redesign the DS sooner rather than later.
A lot of people I know, who fit into Nintendo's "casual" band, are put off by the fact that the DS is "large" and not as sleek as the PSP, or even the SP for that matter. Adjectives such as "large", "massive", "tacky", "ugly" have all been attached to the DS by my companions.
I have to get one of these! it looks to be one of the few actual "pocket sized" portable consoles, I mean my psp can barely fit in my pocket as is is, this would fit in no problem, and it seems as though nintendo have finally adressed the dark screen issue, the screen looks so bright it could be used as a make-shift tourch.

yes no?!
Actually, Arnold's model is a "Series 800 terminator" or a "Cyberdyne Systems, Model 101". T-800 is never mentioned in any of the films. For reference here is the T2 shooting script, which mentions "T1000" but not "T-800"

We realize now that the cop is a terminator too. We don't know the details yet, but let's call him the T-1000 (since that's what he is). A newer model than the one we've come to know so well (the 800 Series "Arnold"). This guy's a prototype... and he's got quite a few surprises.
So while your statement was correct, your terminology wasn't.
considering the terminators in T3 the giant ugly tank treded suckers, are labeled t-1 and the most advanced is a t-1000 and arnold is par t of the 800 "series" i assumed his official model # would be t-800... i may be wrong, but since they are all terminators an 800 series terminator should be labeled a T-800... i think... i may be wrong.
but I personally think that if this device could be used a simple MP3 player (obviously you'd have to buy a seperate memory card to plug in, including player software) then Nintendo would be onto even more of a winner. It's just so portable - I think it would be a misseed opportunity not to do so.
Hey, question. Anyone try plugging in a GB/GBC pak to see if the system has a physical lockout for those?
You see, there's a bit of a fuss right now on if it does or doesn't.
Nintendo said it played all the games the GBA SP does, they had different people at different parts of the booth who said differently, GameSpot says no, IGN says yes, and I didn't get to pull the gamepak out at E3... So the closest I have gotten a GB pak to the unit is this.
