Support NeoGAF

Yeah, and you could download games on the original Xbox so this gen consoles did nothing new. /sarcam

Both the PSP and the DS only got downloads very late in life. Until recently you needed a PS3 to access the PSN store and the DSi, which was only released in Japan, doesn't offer retail games as downloads.

My point was, do you really think they will drop downloadable content in the next generation?? It's not something that needs to be demanded. It's like demanding that the next generation of handhelds will support 3D graphics, or wifi multiplayer.

I think that both DS2 and PSP2 will have a major focus on downloadable games. At the very least, if PSP2 takes this direction, DSi will probably have a new firmware that allows players to access games from the SD card.
