Your kids exchanging innocently-saucy Pictochat messages with complete strangers? So 2006. Pretty soon it'll be all about the heavy-breathing and innapropriate Pokemon innuendo.

GameStop have up that April 23 is when the headset's shipping in the US. It'll cost USD$14.99, and while Nintendo couldn't confirm that exact date, they did tell GameSpot that it's being "released roughly alongside the new Pokemon games". So there you go.

Should be good for both Pokemon fans AND child predators, but me, I'm more excited about the "free mobile phone" angle. Luke Plunkett
