The Nintendo DSi was dated for North America on Wednesday morning and now Nintendo has finally revealed Australian and European release dates. Both territories will actually be getting the latest version of the DS before those of us in the States.
The DSi will arrive in Australia on April 2nd and cost AUD$300 (about $190 American). Europe will receive the handheld on April 3rd. It will retail in UK for £149.99 (about $216 American). It's not clear what the continental Europe price will be. These territories might be getting the DSi a bit quicker than the States but they're getting hosed on the price. On the other hand, Australia and Europe won't be getting the ghastly looking powder blue DSi that's coming to the US. As with Japan, both territories will have their choice of black or white. |
