According to this guy, Kevin Gifford, Nintendo will apparently hold off on a proposed 2005 release of their next-generation console, instead opting for a 2006 release. The anticipated delay is supposedly a result of the PS3 and Ybox supposedly getting a new 2006 release, which Nintendo supposedly heard through the grape vine. In addition, Nintendo reiterated that they ain't nevah skurrd of Sony's PSP, considering "shipments of the Game Boy Advance will likely exceed 60 million units by the time the PSP is released."
