I didn't forget.
You got your two pixels on top and on bottom.:lol
Though I suppose I should have just put 4 on the bottom, (to prioritize the touchscreen).
Of course if Nintendo were to do it, then they probably would shrink the space between the screens to compensate for overscan.
Title safe - 10% off the top, bottom, left, and right. I hate overscan.
If your TV's resolution is 320x240 - 256x192 becomes your real usable size. If it's 640x480, your usable size is 512x384. I hate overscan. I double-hate the ATSC for not resolving this. Most LCD's and plasma HDTV's are pretty good about maintaining a small overscan area. Traditional RPTV's do not, and DLP's are a bit varied, but definitely worse than LCDs and Plasmas tend to be. Overscan means wasted pixels, bandwidth, and titles that are way too close to the center of the screen. A proper definition of "NO OVERSCAN ANYMORE" would have made things better all the way around.
I bought my HDTV particularly because when I have a PC hooked up to it, and give it a signal at it's native resolution, it gives me a perfect picture, at native res (1366x768) with no overscan whatsoever.
