No sooner had we posted the US release date, then the UK date came through!
The Nintendo DSi will be available from Friday 3rd April, and if you pre-order, it will be delivered to you that very morn. Oh, and we get it one day before the US too. Boo-yaaah! Speaking of the US Amazon have reportedly sold all of their pre-order allocation.
Merchants are starting to take pre-orders here in the UK, and it is advisable to do so to avoid disappointment. Don’t just take our word for it – you know what Nintendo are like. ALL the big launches sell out.

Nintendo’s confirmed that the third iteration of its DS handheld, the DSi, will launch in the States on April 5, and a European release date surely can’t be far away now!
Coming in blue and black models upon its U.S. release, the DSi will cost $169.99, which is about $40 more than the DS Lite currently retails for.
If you’re thinking about upgrading from your existing DS or picking up the portable for the first time, you’ll be interested to know that, beyond the fact that it’s slimmer and has bigger screens, the DSi introduces a raft of new features…

The most common of DS Lite models, Polar White and Onyx Black, may soon be discontinued as Nintendo looks to avoid causing confusion when it launches its newest version of the handheld, the DSi, later this year.
The white DS Lite has already been discontinued in the States and according to reports, retailers are now beginning to phase out the black model.

Britain is being flooded with hundreds of fake Nintendo DS Lites according to reports in the news today. Although this is bad because the majority of them don’t work, what makes it a real worry is that they are being sold with dodgy adaptors which haven’t been tested and are potentially dangerous.

These machines were bought from Asian-based console websites and had been selling for £40 rather than the nomal retail price of £100.
Be careful who you buy from!
All the retailers on this site are established merchants, brand names that most of you all recognize – there are a few names you might not be familiar with but they have been thoroughly checked by us and safe to deal with.

In America, the day after Thanksgiving is called ‘Black Friday’. This is when all the retailers have a one day sale – it’s also the busiest shopping day of the year and officially marks the beginning of the holiday season.
In anticipation of this, Nintendo have released two Limited Edition DS Lites which are both available for today from Amazon.com. Unfortunately, unless you live in the US you won’t be able to get them. This is what they are:
Mario Red with a Mario M emblazoned on the front, which comes with Super Mario Bros
and
Ice Blue, bundled with Brain Age (ie Brain Training) and a matching DS Lite carry-case.

We’ve had the Dead Zone, we’ve had the Twilight Zone but all that pales into insignificance compared to the ‘ Nintendo Zone’.
Nintendo Zone has just been trademarked in North America and was mentioned briefly at the Nintendo Media Summit last week.
With the announcement of the DSi grabbing all the headlines it was easy to forget that there was plenty more impressive DS related news announced at Nintendo’s Fall/Autumn Japanese conference.
A video was unleashed which revealed action from several upcoming DS titles all of which are published by the fair hand of Nintendo themselves!
OK we all knew it was coming but now it’s 100% official, the successor to the DS Lite has been announced and it’s name is the Nintendo DSi.
