Lik-Sang is reporting that they received word a few days ago from a Japanese contact that on Monday Nintendo is planning to announce a redesigned DS. The latest rumors point to a sleeker DS that looks more like a cellphone than the current husky model. Last month Famitsu came out with a report that a Nintendo console was getting a redesign which could also point toward the GameCube (very unlikely) or GBA (possible). Well, fortunately we only have four days to wait until we find out for sure. I'll ask Nintendo reps in the morning, but rest assured, they're going to say they can't comment on rumors. Let you know if they break from their decision.
