Nintendo DS Australian Release Date Revealed - DS

11th January 2005, 10:16am
You ready for it? It's sooner than you think:

24th February 2005

Recommended retail price?

$199.95

We asked what Nintendo Australia spokesperson Kate Chambers what she thought of the RRP.
    "Nintendo Australia is pleased to be in a position to offer such incredible pricing." Kate Said. "At this highly affordable price, Nintendo DS is instantly available to the vast majority of portable game players, and we expect them to be both enthused and motivated by it".
Not only is it a good $50 cheaper than what everyone expected, it's also earlier as well! It will come with Pictochat and Metroid Prime Hunters: First Hunt too! The PSP is supposedly 3 to 4 times more expensive than the NDS will be, so it may have a hard time against its cheaper rival.
