New DS SKUs coming to Europe

Red, turquoise and green consoles to hit retail on June 13th; New cooking title coming a week later

The market-leading handheld will receive a boost in a few weeks as three new SKUs and a high-profile new cooking title hit the shelves.

Red, turquoise and green DS Lites will be launched on June 13th at around £99, while Japanese phenomenon Cooking Guide: Can’t Decide What To Eat? will arrive in stores a week later on June 20th at around £30.

Having sold by the bucketload in its native Japan, Cooking Guide: Can’t Decide What To Eat? acts as a step-by-step guide to cooking around 250 international dishes. As users prepare and cook the ingredients, they can speak into the DS’s microphone to progress through each stage of the recipe.

The title also features a cooking A-Z which provides in depth illustrated details on ingredients and cooking terminology. It can also be used as a kitchen timer.

My DS isn't old so teach it some new tricks...

As pleased as I am to see the new colours finally making its way over here I can't help but think about the launch of the Pink and Silver Lites and most shops will have a field day getting to bundle it with excessive amounts of useless add-ons for a very special price.

I like my DS but its been a while since something has excited me about it, its time for a change thats bigger than a colour scheme. Connect it to a Wii, give me official software to use it as a media player or organiser, anything except another cooking mama variant or movie game ... is that too much to ask?
