Nintendo DS: Nintendo to release DS-Xtreme 2GB

By: Aaron Estman - Published April 08, 2007 at 9:05 AM EDT - Writer Archive
The Nintendo DS and DS Lite will be getting an extra boost from the new DS-Xtreme 2GB (2048 MEGABYTES) of on-board memory.
The Sony PSP had a leading advatage over the Nintendo DS and DS lite, but now with this new sleek 2GB storage coming out, any advantage that the Sony PSP had over Nintendo, is now out of the door.

The DS-Xtreme 2GB is suitable for gamers of any skill level to just pick up play, as it is incredibly easy to use. To use the 2GB unit just connect the cartridge to your PC via the housed USB port and drag and drop all your homebrewgames, applications, movies, audio files and more ready for instant playback on the device.

There’s enough memory to hold over 20 episodes of your favourite shows, and over 50 music albums.

Xtreme functionality, One device, Limitless opportunity:
A single unified device – NOTHING else required

Compatible with ALL DS original and DS Lite™ handheld units

Optimal compatibility for homebrew, audio, video and other media files

High speed internal memory provides fastest possible file access times, NO slow-downs

100% Plug ‘N Play, no drivers or extra software required

Easy to use upgradeable on-board operating system

Massive 2GB (2048 Megabytes) of memory included

Compact unit, no bigger than the size of an original DS cartridge – no sticking out!

Gamers can design and publish their own OS themes to be used on the DS-Xtreme 2GB

Lovable applications such as Sudoku, calculator and Pong act as a testament to the power of the engine

Custom engineered components such as a high-speed USB 2.0 connector

u can get an R4 with 2gb microsd for far less than this. along with the fact that ull be able to easily increase memory size as microsds get bigger there is no reason to buy one of these.

thats probably the lamest name i've heard from nintendo, DS-Xtreme? come on.

but ima buy it anyways because ive always wanted some mp3s on my DS, AS LONG AS I CAN LISTEN TO MUSIC AND PLAY GAMES AT THE SAME TIME THEN ITS ALL GOOD.

since when is 2 gigs a lot of storage? even on mobile devices, high speed flash memory is pretty cheap meaning that 2gb of storage might cost them 5$~?
