Nintendo of Australia has announced the details of its launch of the Nintendo DSi. The good news is that Australia gets the white model that North America doesn't, and that both the white and black versions will be available April 2, three days before it shows up here. The bad news: no blue DSi. The worse news: Nintendo is selling the system for AU $299 (US $190.85), which is $100 more than the price of a DS Lite. Actually, the price bump is a lot less odious than we expected, and the early availability ("early" meaning "not a year late") is a very pleasant surprise. The browser will even be available for download at launch.Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments
