I am fairly sure it mean's "New Kind" as in the new "slim". In other news the local store I tend to go to is holding a White 500gb, has the white DS3, and everything looks pretty good, the controller is a TINY bit dirty, but nothing a paper tower wouldn't clean up. I just... Someone talk me out of it, I mean yeah you can say "The exclusives are great!" But if you saw the pile of boxes filled with games I have amassed since I joined cag... You would say "Mayyybbbeee you should hold off on the ps3". Considering the fact that except exclusives, I probably have every game for the 360 already, not to mention the fact I REALLY have impulse control and every time there is a sale on games I would start snatching them up! "I can't WAIT to take this home, put it in a box with 15 other games, and play whatever was already in the system!"...
So yeah while it may only cost $150 for the system and a $20 game... it would end up costing me a couple hundred more by the end of the year x.x.
