DS Lite Launching June 1st!

Monaco Corporation Ltd is pleased to announce the new member of the Nintendo DS range, the upgraded Nintendo DS Lite, will be available in New Zealand on June 1st, at RRP - $269.95

Nintendo DS Lite, launching in Polar White, features brighter screens, is approximately two-thirds the size of the original Nintendo DS and about 20 percent lighter. It also features a larger stylus and repositioned button layout, all the while maintaining all of the original Nintendo DS features, as well as screen size.

The Nintendo DS Lite has experienced phenomenal success in Japan. Since its launch earlier this year, Nintendo have struggled to keep up with incredibly high consumer demand.

With a series of exciting and innovative software releases, Monaco Corporation aims to continue this trend:


• The highly anticipated Metroid Prime Hunters is scheduled for release May 25th. Blast your way through six ferocious bounty hunters in adventure mode, take on up to four friends wirelessly or battle online using Nintendo® Wi-Fi Connection.


• Twenty years after Nintendo's biggest franchise was born, the Mario Bros. return in a dazzling, all-new platformer sure to set players' fingers twitching. New SUPER MARIO BROS. arrives June 8th.


• Dr Kawashima’s Brain Training: How Old Is Your Brain?, releasing June 15th, is designed to keep people's minds active with fun mental workouts that incorporate the user-friendly voice-command and touch-screen capabilities of Nintendo DS. Brain Training also includes more than 100 sudoku puzzles.
