Nintendo plans to release a slimmer, lighter version of its hit Nintendo DS handheld videogame system, the company said on Thursday. The device, known as the Nintendo DS Lite, is expected to hit Japan in March. According to some published reports, it could carry a price tag of around $145 (£80).
According to David Cole, president of entertainment and video game analyst firm DFC Intelligence, the move fits with Nintendo's recent history of releasing smaller and smaller versions of its handheld players. He pointed to the company's original Game Boy Advance, which was superceded by the Game Boy Advance SP, which in turn has been replaced by the Game Boy Micro.
