First Photos of Nintendo DS Lite
Yeah, I know it's a tad off topic, but I'm sure you want to see this. Otherwise, why would you be reading this blog entry? <grin>
First photos of Nintendo DS Lite
The bandages are off! We’ve been teased with
concept art, but now here’s the real thing. And what a testament to the
wonders of plastic surgery!
The old-style Nintendo DS just couldn’t compete with PSP in the
purtiness stakes. It was like Anne Widdecombe vs Angelina Jolie. But
the updated DS Lite is in a different league to its predecessor
looks-wise, and here’s the proof…
It’s two-thirds the size of the original machine and 20 percent
lighter. And as you can see in our gallery section below it’ll be
available in a few shades, including crystal white, ice blue and our
personal fave, enamel navy. All very tempting. Especially with the fact
that PSP’s line-up of games is still somewhat disappointing – barring a
few quality titles like GTA, Virtua Tennis and WipEout – DS Lite with
its innovative catalogue becomes a very appealing prospect. Especially
with it’s global multiplayer Wi-Fi gaming experience now in full swing,
and the announcement of free game demo downloads from next month.
It’s first scheduled for launch in Japan this March, with Europe and the US expected to follow shortly after.
