White, Pink DSi Available on September 13th

Pink = Money

by Coop

It's been known for a while that more DSi colors were coming, but the actual date was never set. Rumors and leaks supposedly stated that Pink and White DSis were in the works for a September launch, but, again, nothing official was ever stated. From the Gamestop Manager's conference in Las Vegas we have word that Nintendo has just confirmed that the new colors will, indeed, be out in September, and are set for a 9/13/09 release. There's no press release of any kind yet, though I'd imagine a formal announcement will be coming soon. Nintendo has a long history of pushing out new colors for the holiday season, and it appears that this year is no different. The fact that Nintendo has Pink DS Lites ages before Sony even thought about the Lilac PSP helped get the handheld into plenty of female gamers' hands, and the color coming to the DSi is bigger news than it really should be.

We'll have more from the GS Managers conference as it develops.

    Okay, not gonna lie... I like the pink one, I did hold out on buying a DSi at launch, and the top screen on my DS Lite recently stopped working. I'd put it on my Christmas list, but no way are these things gonna be in stores for more than five minutes at a time during the holiday season, which means I'll have to consider buying one ASAP.

    Sigh.....
