According to Raymond Padilla, there are some pretty awesome predictions about Nintendo’s newest upcoming hand-held device. The double-screened gaming experience that has become a trademark of the DS is changing in the next iteration of the popular platform. The screens will be bigger and have higher resolution, but what’s really cool is that there will be close to no separation between the two screens. This means the two screens can be used as one for some awesome cut-scenes and gameplay dynamics.

Speaking of gameplay dynamics, the new DS is also rumored to have an accelerometer. Thanks to the iPhone for popularizing this type of functionality. Think about it: two inseparable screens, one on top of another with an accelerometer built into the gameplay? Tetris will never be the same again.

All these rumors are just that: rumors. So don’t go counting on this as fact, but the best rumors are always the ones that sound both awesome and reasonable. Raymond says to look forward to some kind of announcement later in the year.
