Are those who bought the 3DS early (doing Nintendo a favour) gonna be stuck with an ugly piece of plastiiiiic?
Most people consider those who bough the original 1st gen DS to be stuck with an ugly piece of plastic after the re-design.

This is not news. You can't expect any electrical hardware to stay up to date forever. My laptop was brand new Jan 2010, but it now can't run ANY new PC games. This is just a fact of life.

The only question is are you willing to wait for the upgrade. And how long are you willing to wait; because there is no point waiting for the next improvement if you want to play games today.

The problem with 3DS of course, is that there is a lack of "must have" titles that made more people willing to make the leap. People ARE waiting for the next hardware upgrade because there isn't anything they desperately want to play. And if their desired game is, say, two years away from release, then they might as well wait for those two years before buying a 3DS. By then, the old 3DS would be much cheaper and the next upgrade would be available. And they would not miss any game time at all either.
