Nintendo DS Update

30th March 2005, 9:13pm
Nintendo has confirmed that, following launches in Japan, Europe and Australia, they are likely to ship 6 million systems worldwide by the end of March. At the same time, approximately 20 games in every genre will exist for Nintendo DS, with more than 100 more in development from major developers worldwide.

Their press release also defensively listed the specifications of the DS - including long battery life, clamshell design and no moving parts. They are obviously well aware of the potential impact the PSP could have on sales! The PSP's beautiful LCD screen, near PS2 graphics and control stick pave a new road for handheld's of the future, but Nintendo has stuck by its stance that graphics are not the answer with their N64-like Nintendo DS.
