You'll be able to play the Nintendo DS during Thanksgiving dinner

There are some "unconfirmed reports" coming out of the Ziff-Davis Electronic Gaming Summit that Nintendo is feeling increasingly confident that they'll be able to get their new Nintendo DS portable game system in stores in time for Thanksgiving of this year (giving you a chance to annoy everyone by insisting on playing with it during dinner). As you'd expect, there's no official word from Nintendo, but as we know, the final design for the console has been confirmed and the number of third-party titles that should be available for it continues to grow. Expect some sort of proper announcement about this thing's availability soon.
