Nintendo DS Lite White Color

Nintendo DS Lite comes with a variety of distinctive changes that set it apart from the original – and from all other hand-held video game systems:

  • It’s less than two-thirds the size of the original Nintendo DS and more than 20 percent lighter.
  • Its two bright screens can be adjusted to four levels to adapt to different lighting conditions and to extend battery power.
  • The microphone sits in the center of the unit, and the LED lights are clearly visible whether the unit is open or closed.
  • The stylus is 1 centimeter longer and 1 millimeter thicker than the stylus of the original, and slides into a side storage slot.
  • The Start and Select buttons were repositioned for easier access.
  • A removable cover keeps the Game Boy(R) Advance cartridge slot clear from dust and debris when it’s not in use.

The Nintendo DS Lite will available in white color when launch, and hopefully the Colorized Nintendo DS Lite will follow soon.
