Official European DS Lite release date revealed

DS News | Along with a price, and a new Nintendogs game.

Nintendo have just officially announced that their revamped DS console - known as the DS Lite - will be available in Europe from the 23rd of June this year. Europe will get two colours on launch - black and white.

For those unaware, the DS Lite is a slightly smaller and sleeker version of Nintendo's touch-screen console, with much, much brighter LCD screens, and a slightly longer stylus.

This new piece of kit will come at a cost of £99.99, or 149.99 Euros.

Also, Nintendo announced that Nintendogs: Dalmation and Friends will also be out in a similar time frame as the DS Lite - June 16th, to be exact. Coincidence? We think not. The game won't be any different to the others though, aside from the fact that a dalmation will be available from the start of the game. Great for dalmation fans, we suppose.

Coincidence - I was just listening to 'Black or White' for the first time in ages today.

Which one to get? Pressure, pressue.

I wish we were getting black. I don't think it's worth waiting 21 days for the black one when I'd end up paying probably $50 more excluding postage and if there were any stuck pixels, I wouldn't be able to take it back. I guess I'll still get the white one at launch.
