There happens to be a SHOCK! case of that, too.

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> I just bought my DS Lite last month (Had the original but had to sell it to help afford my 50" TV). But I missed the DS that I bought it with FF 1 & 2 for GBA and 3 for DS.

But one of the things I didnt like about my purchase was my only choice was black. (I always hated white, and was one of the reasons I didnt like the Lite at launch) and there is no way I am going to explained to everyone why I got a pink one. So I went with black, the color almost everyone owns. Even my nephew said I was copying him.

I wanted another color, and now that I just bought one, I know the US is the next to have a new color announced. And it will be Red I bet. Cause I love red.

Yeah I want a red one myself. Red is the color of naughty. ;P

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> @Mit: I agree. I would kill for a green one, personally.

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> I'm still holding out for a bright red DS color. If not I'll just have to settle for black.

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> @neo_jman: Heh. I like the pun, but really... those 'metallic pink slips' would only be justified if these things don't sell like... (what's the current superlative for selling things? surely can't be hot cakes any more... hell, in Japan, probably it's 'DS Lites').

Call me a stick-in-the-mud but personally I wouldn't bet against sales of DS Lites, even in some slightly tasteless colours.

Me, I'd go for pastel green - or a pastel pink that's (even) more pastel and less pink than the current 'noble' one. Except I wouldn't, because I already have a DS Lite, it's white, and looks very nice (hinge crack aside).

Big_Jock

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> They are ok, but I have yet to get that "damn that looks nice, why is mine so ugly" feeling that usually occurs when dealing with Nintendo handhelds. I'm just fine with my basic white one, though, if I red version is ever released, I suspect I'll yearn for it.

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> They need to just go ahead and release a chrome DS.
So the colour you perceive it as just depends on whatever colour T-shirt you are wearing.

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> My friend bought a see-through blue shock DS Lite case, which was cool until the bottom plate didn't fit on the system. So he mixed the pieces with his white DS pieces and make a decent looking hybrid system. Then both hinges on the case COMPLETELY broke, and the thing couldn't open/close without flopping all over the place, so he went back to all his white parts and his original cracked hinge (which was the reason he bought the replacement case in the first place).

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> Lime Green DS Lite would be sweet!

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> I still think Navy Blue is the sexiest.

NewSc2

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> I want a tweed DS Lite.

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> I've been waiting for a silver DS lite to replace my old original DS for a while, although I don't know about the gloss. I'll wait for some customer photos. What's wrong with matte, anyway?

metaly

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> All very well and good, but where are the RED ones?

Goddamnit I want a nice bright fire engine red DS and matching Wii.

RJG

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> Just a little while ago I found myself wishing for the metallica colors, like in the GBA SP days..

A silver and a pink with no finger prints and a nice sheen: definitely worth trading in for!

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> @Kenofthedead:
There is those SHOCK! DS Lite replacement cases, but there is the issue of them not being official products, so you miss out on some of the details of an official DS Lite case (i.e. the "screen" logo on the back).
Plus, I've been hearing they're not all that great... [shrugs]

@Evin:
Spice Orange GameCube was Japan-only, I think. Maybe it came to Europe? Well, it defnitely didn't come to America (but the controller did!).

@Chef:
Like the GBA SP and original DS cases?


And I second the comments about how these colors are unnecessary. :/

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> @Evin: Spice. It was spice!

Luke Plunkett

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> So instead of glossy pink and white they get metallic pink and white? Why? What is the point behind releasing smudge-and-oil-attracting versions of those colors? Nintendo needs to give metallic pink slips to the next bunch of idiots that come up with unimaginative drivel like this.

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> I've never liked pink too much...but it would be so much better if it was a light pink. Light pink I can handle, but the more garish pinks bring a shudder. >.<

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> I think we found out how Nintendo will create even MORE sales of the DS in Japan. Just periodically release new colors. They don't even have to change the hardware.

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> Unless it actually has a metal shell, I dunno if I'd be that interested - metallic plastic usually comes off as cheap.

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> @Kenofthedead:

There was orange for the GameCube.

Evin

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> Oh AND glow in the dark FTW!

Janaff

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> Silver FTW!

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> How about Holographic Plaid?

supercrap

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> They seriously need to bring Enamel Navy over here to the States.

grrr, I bought one from Hong Kong via Play-Asia, but I seem to have misplaced it. damnit, it's nowhere to be found.

ABigSmall

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> Those two colors together remind me of Pokemon Diamond and Pearl. Although Japan got those games nearly a year ago...

SDafra

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> Give it time Mit, it will spread elsewhere.

I second the Glow in the Dark edition, but I rather have a see-through aka "Glacier" DS.
Atomic Orange would be nice as well, it's been some time since the N64.

Kenofthedead

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> What a waste of a color...Why a new pink, I mean there's a million other colors they could of used.

Me? I'm still waiting for glow in the dark edition.

Dr.Chocobo

]]> <![CDATA[Japan Getting Two New DS Lite Colours]]> I don't get why anyone is pleased with either of these colors. There's a large list of colors remaining on the ol' color palette, why not tap into those? Nope, make metallic version of two already existing colors -.-

Oh well, it's Japan, not here.
