I think Nintendo will mark the DS lite launch as a success. despite the lack of the other colur units. A week isn't very long to wait for those and I'm sure Nintendo will look at all those sell outs and step up production somehow.
Sure I'd love a new DS Lite, but I don't mind waiting til the import rush dies down a bit. It's more important to me that I can experience the games, be it via an old or new DS.
Nice to see the japanese public getting into the DS fever. Almost feels like a an old school console launch back when Nintendo ruled.
I hope MS are paying close attention, because if they do plan a handheld they might fragment the handheld market. Handhelds are about the games and if they can't see that, then there's the fact that a lot of console games won't work on a handheld console. Halo won't be enough to get MS out of this one IMO. I also think two major handhelds are enough, we don't need another (don't forget we also have GBA SP and GBA Micro too). maybe I just like the way things are with DS and PSP, two's company and three's a crowd.
Well, here's to Nintendo and lets hope those same folk return for more DS Lite and the upcoming Rev launch.
