New DS 'unveiled tomorrow'

Twisted | October 01, 2008 | Rumor | DS

MCV has learned that Nintendo will be announcing a new DS tomorrow at a press conference. This new DS is supposed to be able to take pictures like a camera, and also be an MP3 player.

Nintendo will announce a new, updated version of its DS console at a press conference tomorrow morning, MCV has learnt.

According to our impeccable source in Japan, Satoru Iwata will make the announcement at 5am UK time – as first predicted by MCV last month.

Little is known about the machine's exact extra functions, but we do know the product will be the ‘multimedia’ model mentioned by Nikkei this week – with an MP3 player and camera function.

Whatever it is, it won't look like the DS in the picture. It's just a shooped iPod Touch.

Yay! I'm hoping they do implement the features such as the music player so it offers what the competitors do along with everything else it has such as the dual screens. That way Nintendo can dominate.

And make a much more enticing hand held for fans like myself.

Awesome. Might be time for me to pick up a DS. Been holding out thanks to a modded PSP occupying my handheld joy.

The source uses atrocious spelling like 'learnt'?

Dunno how reliable this source is, but if they're in journalism, they should at least try to spell things properly >_>

(When I use atrocious spelling/grammer, it is deliberate)

  Learnt is a word. They've not misspelled it.
