Seeing Double

I don’t really have the time to write a proper entry at the moment but I thought this was quite interesting.
Nintendo have announced that they will soon be launching a handheld with two screens.
Seems like a pretty cool idea although it’s all very vague so far and noone appears to be quite sure how they’re planning on implementing it - or what added value you’d get for your extra screen.
The same topic on game girl advance.
Tony:
I imagine things like the Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicals thing, where you could display all the menu options on a plugged in game boy, leaving the screen uncluttered for all those pretty special effects.
So, anything with a menu that gets in the way could benefit. I’ve got a few ideas for game gimmicks already…
