Quantcast



Looks like the once-Japanese-exclusive Dialga/Palkia Pokemon DS Lite is on its way to North America.

Reader Spindash54 sends us images of next week's GameStop marketing, which displays an image of the limited edition handheld. According to the marketing, the DS Lite will sport a $129.99 price and will come with a DS carrying case, a Pokemon Mystery Dungeon DVD, a poster and a t-shirt. 

This special package seems like a deal to us, but Nintendo has yet to officially reveal plans to release the handheld in the States. The release date is currently unknown, but with the marketing going up next week, our guess is "pretty soon."

I never understood people's love for these special edition hand-helds or consoles. People go batshit for plastic being glued to their DS systems or someone painting Kratos on their PSP.

The price for this is cool, but all the shit you get is useless. Pokemon Dungeon DVD?

Man, I was just about to buy a DS. I'm glad I waited. I think I'll definitely pick this up, especially if the case is half decent.

@Heretic: The fuck are you talking about? My Triforce DS is fucking sexy.

And so is the free Feather Pen stylus I got for it.

Why am I not a millionaire yet? I want this, but can't justify owning three DSes.

Right...so while we get the aged DP version, Japan will get the brand-new Platinum DS. I have a black DS already and fleetingly thought of buying this one (or the TWEWY one) since I do a lot of back-and-forth stuff and generally have to borrow a DS to do so...

But honestly? I'll pass it by and (maybe) shell out the cash to obtain the "super-special-awesome" Platinum DS that they had as part of a giveaway. I love that DS.
