So ... Nintendo just had a Press Conference in Japan. Two major points I would like to make clear:
New Super Mario Bros. - May 2006, 4800 Yen (No new info for outside Japan, but one would assume it will reach other territories fairly soon afterwards.)
Opera Web Browser - You heard that right ... you will, sometime in the not to distant future ... be able to browse Ultimate Disney on your DS at McDonalds.

Ooh! Pretty cool!

[But I think I was more shocked when I found out Japan had a nice pink version of the DS.

Finally a date on the new Mario game! May in Japan probably means summer for America so I can either import then or wait till a UK release. Probably import if reviews are really good!

Cool. I don't have a Nintendo DS, although I've been wanting one. I'm going to wait until the new DS Lite is released, and then I'll pick it up. The New Super Mario Bros. will be mine!

I heard about this a while ago. It's pretty old news but it's very interesting...
It shows that Nintendo really needs to compete with Sony's PSP.

While I have a Sony PSP, trust me, it's the other way around. The Nintendo DS is doing VERY well. In fact, it is the fastest selling system to reach sales of 6 million in the shortest amount of time.
So, the PSP would do well to compete with the Nintendo DS.

Correct. In Japan last week (and most weeks) 6 of the top 10 games were for the DS, and that includes games from all console systems, not just handhelds, so only 4 games were for the PS2, PSP or Xboxes (like the latter would ever happen

)
