Here's your info! Nintendo redesigned the DS, if you haven't heard already. It's coming out in Japan -- March 3rd? 2006. Yeah.

The DS Lite is brighter and lighter than it's original version.
We all know how 'unappealing' the DS looks like. It's shape and design... it's eerily reminiscent of Nintendo's old systems. But this new DS....wooo!
Yea. The design is very nice. It comes in that shiney material that the new iPods are made out of. Coming in three colors currently--White, Ice Blue, and Navy Blue. What's even better is that the design is similar to Nintendo Revolutions! New features? A new software version. And... just released on the news earlier this week........ OPERA Internet Browser! And other pictures of the DS Lite with a..... TV Tuner. Of course, this TV Tuner is usable with the old DS, as it connects to one of the slots. And the brightness! It's now adjustable to 4 different levels. It's just like the new GBA SP Light version. The highest brightnesses are much brighter and vivid in color than the old DS's screen. Want to know more? Google it. Nintendo DS Lite. Check the Nintendo Japan website. Big news there (in Japanese)//Great pics tho.

The release date for the U.S., however, is unknown. Certain to be much later this year. Don't get your hopes up. It sucks though, because many people just got DS recently! Now you might need to get a new one?
More info to come!

Grrr....Now that they have the Lite....what'm I gonna do with my teal Nintendogs DS I got for my birthday?

Old news.

Everyone already knows about this, and it was predictable. What does Nintendo love doing more than anything? Making a product, then after christmas, make an improvement.

I am not buying a new DS. My mom spent $150 on this one, and I'm lucky I have it. We are not paying another $150 for an "improved" DS.

Edit: Lol Gardevoir1313, I have the same kind of DS that I got with Nintendogs.

yea! see.... that's the deal. this is an example of how you get a new thing and it gets replaced by something even newer.... kinda like my ipod mini and the nano coming out 3 months later.... :x
