Want a lighter (218g), thinner (133.0 × 73.9 × 21.5mm) Nintendo DS? You’ll have to wait till March 2nd when Nintendo officially releases the “DS Lite”. Other new features include a 4 stage brightness control for the display and a slightly higher $144.99 USD price tag. This announcement came as a surprise to us too, especially when Nintendo denied rumors of a new version being released. Dissapointed fans even created mockups of the next version. Source: [Nintendo]
