Gryph Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 http://www.nintendo.co.jp/n10/news/060126.htmlThe first redesign of the DS has been confirmed and it's called DS Lite. Here is the important info: The article says that the system is thinner, lighter, and has adjustable brightness controls (apparently it's called DS lite because of both weight and brightness). Original dimensions: 148 x 85 x 28mmNew dimensions: 133 x 73.9 x 21.55mm Old weight: 275gNew weight: 218gIt will be released in Japan on March 2nd with no announced date for the rest of the world. There is an English article at 1Up but the link isn't working for me. Here it is anyway, http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3147494 I think it looks damn sexy. Very Revolution-ish. I hope they release a black version since that would be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nusumenai Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 When is this going to be released? I plan on getting one, with all the wicked games coming on the DS and all (Xenosaga DS XD). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken_cinder Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 No, I mean Nintendo of Europe was obviously kept out of the loop here. If they knew but were told not to say, they would have declined to comment.....not outright refuted the idea.PAL gamers are almost always the last to get anything.......including news. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
