Yeah, I was impressed with that.

It'll be interesting to see what the PSP games are priced at.

I am well aware the post was a joke. But I clapped slowly simply because it wasn't funny.

Eh? How was this a joke?

The DS launch details were released so I posted them.

No - Nintendo confirmed them on the fifteenth.

They weren't posted so I decided to stick them up. I certainly didn't know about them, and it looks like others didn't either...

What!!! There are loads of posts on it, they were released on the 27th of february, I'll pop my post I wrote on it in a minute just to prove it.

Tilt further down the list criticises the launch line up, whilst there were several posts about those getting the DS from the stars catalogue.

The news is 3 weeks old.

Nah, not convinced.

I got an e-mail from Nintendo on the fifteenth. You may have known certain details before, but the above is a more comprehensive and straightforward guide to the launch.

No the release information was the 27th, I knew that would be the time we'd hear the launch info in early january because Nintendo confirmed it.

I can prove it to you. Look at the date for both of these news articles.

Mav is the first person I've met on these forums NOT to know the release date of the DS.

See the "Nintendo DS" link in the corner over there? It tells you the launch date of the DS there, and has done for 3 weeks. That seems clearly labelled information to me.
