Obviously this is just a wishlist, as Ninty probably wouldn't do most of these, but here's mine:

  • Skype compatability. Skype says it's possible, but Nintendo won't let them
  • obviously, games launching from the SD card
  • youtube compatability
  • the ability to use songs off your SD card for background music on picture slideshows, like on the wii
  • the ability to record videos (although I'm sure quality would be pretty bad)

I'm not sure if the Dsi could handle some of these considering its processing power, but it'd be awesome

I agree with all of that, we need everything you listed... the most important to me is SD Card management... NIntendo need to trust its own users and allow us to play stuff directly off our SD Cards without going through all that Management mess in the Settings. I know it's only a minute to do that manually, but we own this thing, give us freedom!!! Also, I would like to be able to play my own music instead of a game's soundtrack, or at all... is there a way???

nintendo needs to step up to piracy and make a sd card menu app or dsiware will die becuase people will run out of space! also about nintendo not wanting skype its becuase the group for lost children and child protection are beging nintendo not to do this they will do anything in there power even sew them if a child hears bad words. but realy cant we just have a friend code thing like with wii speak? also i want a DSI messeng board that uses your email acount or friend codes just like the wii message board.

... People run out of space? I've downloaded 90% of what's on DSiWare, and yes, I've moved stuff onto the SD card, but it's still there, and I've got plenty of space left.

I am really digging the DSi message board idea! Why don't we have this already? I guess we do in a way on here, but we still don't have friends lists on here. We need a message board!

I'd be happy if they just put Pictochat online and allowed people to chat from a distance larger than 10 steps (Via friend codes if necessary, so it becomes like a MSN)

Wow, I would really dig that. What a wonderful idea! A PictoChat we could actually use.. lol... I'm always the only one in my house with a dsi or anywhere remotely near me, and if one of my friends are that close, we just talk face to face, so i never saw the use of the darn thing... Now i do... Let's try to suggest this to Nintendo. I'm sure they could make that work... surely..?

I mean, you can talk to visitors with WiFi turned on in AC:WW... why not Pictochat? This would add so much more value to our DSi's to be able to just communicate to friends wirelessly all over the world. Doesn't the PSP or PSPGo feature this already?

I used to be on board for the whole Storage solution but I'm fine with the one we have at the moment but I'd like to be able play music during a game (Maybe Mario Kart DSi will have this? That is if there is one), Some sort of Wii Speak like function for the DSi and straight mp3 support.

You can talk to people online while playing pokemon so why won't they make something for dsi?

Putting the DS Demo service ON the DSi... For $%^& it doesn't take a genius to figure out how much more successful the demo service would be if they did that.

if that will happen the demo's would only be accessed by the nintendo channle or the DS download stations at game stops
