You might have seen these pop up in your Black Friday ads, but here's the official word and images from Nintendo.
New Green and Orange DSi system bundles are coming this Friday, Black Friday, November 26th, to the US. Both colors will cost $149.99 and will come with Mario Party DS as a pack-in. "As supplies last," as they always say. That means that you need to walk shoulder first into crowds, covering your face, constantly pushing forward.
I think the new colors look great. The green is pretty close to Mario Pipe Green if you ask me. The orange one is almost red looking to my eyes, but it still looks nice. I'd take either.
This bundle joins the other new-ish bundle, a DSi XL in Red, colored for Mario's 25th anniversary. It comes with Mario Kart DS, two Brain Age titles and a clock app for $179.99. There's also that Red Wii (with New Super Mario Bros Wii and Wii Sports) for $199.99.
Happy shopping!
