Nintendo's World Touch DS Tour To Follow Full DS Press Conference
Satoru Iwata and Shigeru Miyamoto to answer DS questions
In a recent report from Bloomberg it was suggested that Nintendo is planning to unleash the final DS details at a press conference on 7th October. Although this hasn’t been confirmed by Nintendo, some sort of official announcement was always on the cards for around this period. It is slightly surprising that TGS wasn’t chosen as the time and place to make exciting DS revelations, especially as Sony are promising to show 100 PSP titles over the duration over the show: but Nintendo’s promotional activity has already started up elsewhere, with TV ads airing in Japan this weekend; so its marketing plans are clearly well underway. Holding the conference after Sony’s would also enable Nintendo to react to any specific details, thus stealing as much thunder away from the PSP as possible.
Even if the PSP parade at TGS does reel in the public in huge volumes, Nintendo is planning its own public tour of Japan (misleadingly called World Touch DS) to help stimulate the hype monster. Throughout November, the DS will be at free showings up and down Japan: and by this point, potential customers will literally be able to smell the DS funk hanging heavy in the air, because release dates and prices will have been officially revealed.
If the 7th October press conference is actually happening, both Satoru Iwata and Shigeru Miyamoto are expected to be in attendance: offering invaluable insights and definitive answers to any outlying questions alluding to the new Nintendo handheld. As soon as any DS conferencing commences, find the conclusive facts here.

Yep good news. Still waiting on that PSP price point for a laugh, but they could surprise me.
((Now going off topic))
I don't think Gaz meant any disrespect by it Ryo, (well he might have) but calm down and take a look at your posts from our point of view. Let me elaborate.
Using text language to make your posts, might not be the best way to get you point across. Remember our language is called English, and the spong website is viewed by not just those of us in the uk, but also other. While you might be able to type it quicker, when reading it takes a word by word deciphering by us that have to read it, and understand what you have said in here.
I know that in the end you'll do as you please, but spare a thought for us who then have to decipher and read your posts. I have to say, that your posts take the longest to read out of all the posters on spong, because of how it's written. Hate to think how foreign folk might find it.
Yes, a lot of us have mobile phones, we might even spell our stuff like you on our mobiles, but not here. No offence dude, but it would be better if you took our advice, even though I know you probably won't.
The ball is in your court anyway, sir.

Thats cool bro, if he gave me the view you just did i can start typin like im doing right now. Bare respect to you man. Reson as you know why i type like this is its quiker and its just street. But as for the benefit of our other SPONG brothers, i'll type like this, your a good poster and enjoy reading your views, if that knob had been a bit more polite and explained himself more i could have taken it less seriously. As of now i'll type like this.
Cheers Joji, u gangsta!!!
