Nintendo have announced that they are dropping the price of all DS models in Japan and introducing three new colors for the DSi XL (LL in Japan).
There is no news of similar prices drops or new colors in the west, however with the 3DS due out later this year we would not be surprised if Europe and North America saw similar reductions at some point. Here are the details:
DSlite from ¥16,800
DSi from ¥18,900 to ¥15,000
DSi LL from ¥20,000 to ¥18,000

Nintendo of America exec Cammie Dunaway (above) has been very vocal recently about Nintendo’s current position in the market and she is understandably excited about this years software line-up for both Wii and DS.
Venturebeat had a recent interview with her where she talks about all of these subjects in more detail including “Metroid: Other M“, Mario on Facebook, digital downloads, E3 and Wii price drops.
Dunaway on the appeal of Metroid: Other M…
“Well, you can’t get access to Samus and the Metroid franchise on the other platforms. And this experience isn’t about the graphics at all. It is a shooting game. But it is a much more emotional experience with story to it.”
Continues after the break.
