Nintendo's DS Lite getting redesigned?

Don't place your bets just yet, but rumors are beginning to swirl in the DS Lite arena about a possible redesign. Considering all the PSP2 whispering that has been going on of late, it wouldn't be too surprising for Nintendo to plunk down a bombshell of its own in the face of competition, but moreover, we know Nintendo has a history of keeping its handheld hardware fresh. Be it colors or miniaturization, we've seen the firm's handhelds shrink and don new hues for ages, and the most recent blurb suggests that a new iteration of the DS could "feature a larger screen and more readable fonts for users who may have a difficult time playing on the smaller machine." Hey, it's not like grandpa isn't already getting his game on with another Big N product, right?

If this is true, then get ready to drop your Lites from a 10 story building and start utilizing that warranty.

An even slimmer DS can only mean smex. Let's just hope it doesn't mean that it's more fragile than the current Lite.

Yes, because I would want to buy three versions of the same thing.

You're still forgetting the people that haven't bought one yet. 44 million is only a small fraction of the 6+ billion that live on Earth, and they'll most likely replace the current Lite with the new one if they do release a rehash.

But remember, it's still a rumor.

True true. But still, even if Paris Hilton was slimmer, I'd still hate her if you know what I mean.

I just bought my DS lite. Even if the rumors are true, people are too tire to buy another redesign.

Nintendo owns both Microsoft and Sony,in term of making ten thousands versions of one console..

I don't have one yet. A redesign might just make me buy it once and for all.

Even if they were to make a new design thats slimmer, would it break easier than the current DS Lite?
