Don' t know if you guys know about this already if you do then you can delete it :

Datel Media Player for Nintendo DS with 4GB Hard Drive




Keeping in theme with the nintendo news:


As Miyamoto and Co. cryptically reference the last unrevealed feature of the Revolution’s control scheme, the lads over at Revolution Advanced seem to have already descried it: a built-in accelerometer allowing the nunchuck controller extension to sense the speed and direction in which you’re whipping it about your head.

What this essentially means is that you can use the Revolution want to control your character on screen while using the attached nunchuck to perform ancillar actions like reloading, jumping, strafing, whatever.
