My neighbor just got a Nintendo DS and since my brother is best friends with him, i got to take it for a test drive. I have never been this dissapointed with Nintendo EVER ;(.

First of all the dual screens really isnt needed, i was playing Super Mario 64 DS on it, the map was at the botom and the gameplay on top, it was kind of a waste IMO.

Second is the controls they are set up really wierd.

```auto

 POWER Select Start
                                        X
   D-Pad BOTTOM SCREEN Y A
                                        B

```

Thats pretty much the best i could draw it, but its a really weird setup, and unlike the GC controler, I had a really hard time getting used to this one.

I really have nothing good to say about this, other than its a good thing i didnt buy one.

Sony PSP here i come!
