    The website for Nintendo Korea has gone live, expectantly chock full of info on the DS Lite and its Brain Training games. They do a good job of introducing the DS and going over its many features. There's even a commerical or two for you to watch. Overall, the site is very easy to navigate, although barren of Wii-related items at the moment.
