[Rumor] Another DS redesign? (Larger screen & buttons for the older set)

[Icarus Moonsight]

Damn it... just when my silver brick goes spazzy and I deceide to grab a Lite I stumble across this rumor at Kotaku. Wouldn't surprise me much. The GBA had 4 incarnations if you count each of the two SP versions. Larger screen is a big plus and bigger better spaced buttons for adult hands sounds great as well. I need all the help I can get fighting back my inevitable carpel tunnel. What's the vibe you get?

Of course if they do make it, I'll buy two. One for the wife and another for myself. Plus the entire nation of Japan will pony up as well, I'm sure. That will be 6 DS's I've bought... I think I'm just about out of milk guys... ok?

wow, I think the ds is pretty perfect now as a lite. But I agree that holding it for long periods of time becomes akward because of it's small size. The screen brightness and quality is already the best of any hand-held that I have seen, so I can't see them focusing on that much, hmm....

I'd still buy it at a reasonable price.

If I wanted a bigger DS, I'd sell my Onyx DS Lite and get another Electric Blue DS.

Good. I HATE the DS Lite, having a model that can fit in my hands would rock.

Even though I love my Lite, I'd be all over a revision if it indeed had a bigger screen. At least as big as the SP.

Bigger DS would be great. I love the DS but I find myself playing more puzzle based games that allow me to hold it comfortably. Games like StarFox that are more action based cramp my hand after playing awhile.
