DS Lite

[Hatake Kakashi]

The clunky version of the DS will be a thing of the past with a new, redesigned DS called the DS Lite. The first thing to notice is the dual screens, which remain the same size despite the slimming down of the handheld body.

The images also confirm the pocket-sized dimensions - around 5 and a half inches long, 3 inches wide and a little over an inch thick - plus the new side-mounted power switch and stylus slot. And don't worry about the shoulder buttons, as they're both present and correct.

These photos weren't released by Nintendo but by the Federal Communications Commission as part of tests they were performing. A new info-burst from Nintendo can't be far off, though, with the Japanese release set for early March.

I was wondering when someone would post about the DS Lite. Although its New and smaller than the original DS, I still don't think it will take place of the original.

Well my friend has an oringinal DS and he said he is going to buy the new one and probably sell the old one. People believe the old DS will phase out by september.

Now rumors of an enhanced PSP are circulating. Saying Sony and Samsung made a deal to make a built-in NAND flash memory drive which can store store 8GB. NAND technology will significantly lessen the amount that PSP will have to read off the UMD, and therefore allow for extended battery life.
So if any console's are delayed you know why :P

I didn't know about the moving of the two 'Start' and 'Select' buttons. But i'm pleased about this, as when im playing MK I have to reach all the way above the buttons.
Glad to see they've moved them.
