DS Lite shining on UK this summer

Monday 22 May 2006
Nintendo has announced that DS Lite will be launched in Europe on 23 June, is expected to cost around £100 and will be available in two different colours - black and white - at launch.

Smaller, lighter and infinitely more beautiful than its bulky predecessor, the new DS Lite also boasts vastly improved screen brightness that makes its games super crisp, super colourful and super gorgeous.

We've been enjoying our DS Lite for some time already - you can read our Lite love story here - and with New Super Mario Bros being released on 30 June it's unlikely that we're going to be putting it down anytime soon.

I don't have the energy to really hate anything properly. Most things I think are OK or inoffensively average. I do love quite a lot of stuff as well, though.
