As we reported last week, Nintendo is scheduled to hold a new DS Lite press conference tomorrow.
What wonders does Mr. Iwata have in store for us this time? Several sites are reporting that the DS Lite has a few surprises left in it. In particular, there is supposedly one bombshell left to come. The DS momentum machine rolls on!
Start looking for word to leak out sometime in the middle of the night as the conference is scheduled for 2:30 pm in Japan on February 15th (in fact, it's already February 15th there right now).
Any DS Fanboys want to make any last minute predictions?

Scans of the instruction manual are already up; we got them with those yellowed photos from the FCC. Any surprise would have to be in there, unless it's a bundled game at a lower price than the current DS, or something like that.

It'll have a tiny motion sensor built-in, allowing it to be used as a wireless Revolution controller.

I bet it has something to do with the GBA "filler" cartridge. If it was just a "filler," it wouldn't need the trademark Nintendo screw because it would be made from a single mold. Maybe it's some kind of memory card.
Built-in WiFi PictoChat seems likely, too.

My Prodictions:
1) I bet they roll out a head set to be used with games like Metroid Prime Hunters During Chats in the game
2) I thing that they're rolling out the new port to recarge the unit not just for size, i think it'll conect to PC's via USB 2.0 and alow some midia content like video, music and pictures on black DS cards you could buy.
3) I hope Mac compatible software for the Wifi USB adapter.
4) Other accesories
5) unveial some new games (Most Likly of my 5)

imagine this:
full support of the Nintendo Revolution Virtual console via flash memory; how amazing would that be? Obviously that isn't it since there is no flash memory though...

I believe that the DS Lite's dust protecter is in fact a bomb which will deploy if in a 15 foot radius of any Xbox, Xbox 360, PSX, PS2, PSP, and or PS3. That is my prediction ^_^.

The reason for the Twilight Princess's delay was so they could port it to the DS.....

Oh yeah, like the one on the PSP! Wrong forum, buddy.
It HAS to be a web browser or online Pictochat, what else? Either way, they'll come up with something good.
