Nintendo DS - Unofficial Launch Details

With GameFront spilling the beans, we add some extra information on the European launch details of the Nintendo DS...

Gaming-website GameFront has spilled the unofficial announcements from Nintendo about the release of the Nintendo DS. Where GameFront only reports the suggested retail price of ?149.99 and a release 'early March', we (gba.n64europe.com and our host Cube-Europe) take the information a step further.

A reliable source (not the SPoNG type of reliable sources), could tell us that the European Nintendo DS will hit the European stores on the 11th of March at a suggested price of ?149.99. The Nintendo DS will also include the Metroid Prime Hunters: First Hunt demo.

Nintendo will also take care of the distribution of Sega's Feel the Magic: XY/XX (or: Project Rub) in Europe.

Nintendo will officially announce the European launch details next week, at a DS Press Conference in Paris on the 27th of January.

  That's ?103.872, rounded up to ?104. D'you reckon we'll get a tasty ?99.99 price tag in Britain? Or will they take it further,following the old trend, to ?110 or something =S

  ?99.99 would be a fantastic price point. Especially with the Metroid demo thrown in.

  You Europeans get a cool name for FTMxyxx. Project Rub is cool. Not like it really matters though. Will someone notify me if there is extra content?

  It's likely to be the same as the US. I'm not sure how you'd add extra content to it.

  The same way they add console-specific content.

  as far as I've heard, it is. Thursday's the official announcement, and I'll try to report all facts a.s.a.p.
