"DS to be release early..."

Apparently the DS is due to hit American shelves on the 15th rather than the 22nd.

Nice.

Woo, another week earlier.

Have fun waiting until March.

I will, don't worry.

I've got my 'Cube/Xbox/GBA, I'll be fine.

God! March is way too soon.

Damn Nintendo.

How the hell am I supposed to play all these Gamecube games and GBA games before the DS? How the hell am I supposed to afford them all!!!

Maybe I'll get a DS next Christmas when the Gamecube release list starts to look nicer.

I'm going for a DS for Christmas 2005. Why get it so early, when I've got games like Resi 4, Zelda 2005 and Forza to sink my teeth into.

You importers, so impatient.

Well a friend's mum is currently in America for 2 weeks and she's going to bring back the DS for my friend so I'll get to try it out. Can't wait.

Zelda probably won't be out until Christmas 2005 anyway, Resi and Forza are hardly going to occupy you for 12 months.

Well you'll buy them and leave them lying around for ages or you'll never complete them like usual ;P

How great is this?!? As long as it is true.

Don't let me down Importmadness!

I'm still tempted to keep mine hidden away for Christmas, but my resolve will probably very weak when it arrives on my doorstep, with the package demanding "rip open my packaging and play me now!".

I have 4, count 'em 4, consoles on pre-order in total, so this little console launch is going to be expensive for me in the short term; 1xDS + Mario for me, 1xDS + Mario for my older bro (who's hoping to get it in time for his birthday at the end of Nov) are on order from Importmadness. Then I have another 2 consoles to come from Lik-Sang (they still haven't got any prices on there but I'm hoping they're going to be as cheap as possible, so they say anyway) for my younger bro and sister. Theirs are going to be for Xmas (though when my dad finds out he's buying them he probably won't be too pleased).
