According Kotaku, this pdf from Nintento's site reveals a new DS http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/pdf/2010/100323.pdf
Nintendo describes the portable as allowing games to be "enjoyed with 3D effects without the need for any special glasses". According to Nintendo, the product will go on sale between April 2010 and March 2011.
The Nintendo 3DS will succeeded the Nintendo DS series and will have backward compatibility for Nintendo DS and DSi games.
Note that if the DS2 platform plays games that are incompatible with the original DS, it will be considered a separate console--sales of the DS2 would not contribute to the Nintendo DS stock (unlike DS lite and DSi). We will list a separate stock for DS2 if that is the case.
I've put no stock in these rumours up till now but the last couple of days there's been a lot more chatter to make me think there might be something in it.
Would be a bit of a shame for those still buying DS stock at 240m :P
The rumoured DS2 development kits are in the hands of select developers in Japan - and include a motion-sensing function, CVG can reveal.
The biggest of the firms working with the device is The Pokemon Company.
"a handful" of developers had been given the hardware on a trial basis.
However, Nintendo informed him that it was merely the first version of what will become the finished product.
