We're all well beyond the point where there's any kind of surprise when a device gets made over in yet another color -- especially pink -- so save that aghast look for something a little more unusual. Nope, sorry, that won't be the price either; the "Noble Pink" DS Lites will weigh in at an almost-average ¥16,800 ($144 US), and will see release July 20th overseas. Which means if nothing else we'll get them around or before the Wii drops in Q4, though hopefully not before the elusive, highly desireable black market black Lite.[Via Joystiq]
oooohh
pretty pink!!!
I SAW ONE IN GREENHILLS,THE MALL IN MANILA-PHILIPINES
I bought the ds lite pink last week with brain training and I love it! I got a great deal from http://www.nintendodsliteconsole.co.uk
Personally I would stop buying this and start looking at the new dsi console.

The pink looks nice, but I prefer my black one :) This is probably the first time in gaming history that I'm happy to be european, though we where the last ones to get the machine. The black DS lite is sooooo cool.
I would really like a black DS Lite.
Ill buy one :)
"Pretty in Pink"... Naw couldn't be related to the movie...
Think I would pass on this one and anything that has such a small screen...
I still to this day and prolly my dying day will never figure out how anyone can Game on such a small screen with such low rez...
Almost average? That's the exact same price as the DS-L Japanese price. The mouse is right there, all you have to do is move it around and click. They call that "research."
It seems the world has gone mad about pink! There are even websites now just selling pink things... www.allpinkstuff.com who'd have thought!
Anyone know if there is a date for a UK release for this console?
The DS screen really isn't all that small, and the resolution is great. I don't know what you're talking about, Keith. Maybe if you tried it, you'd see.
My 11 year old daughter has always thought Nintendo was sexist for having a "Game Boy' but no "Game Girl".
This will definitely appease her.
I want bright orange!
"Which means if nothing else we'll get them around or before the Wii drops in Q4"
Seems like a dubious assumption. The pink version of the original DS never made its way to these shores. I certainly hope it'll be different this time around, but I see no reason to expect pink DS Lites this side of the Pacific.
OMG!!, PONIES!!
My 11 year old daughter has always thought Nintendo was sexist for having a "Game Boy' but no "Game Girl".
That reminds me of a camp I went to. We had to create a product, and we made the Gamegirl. With such accessories as 'Tanning Light"(Screen Light) and the "Juicy Juicer" (AC adapter)
I want a purple one!! :P
Yes I agree, the DSi looks great, I was watching a video of it here: http://www.dsi-prices.co.uk/
