Europe drops DS price

Sunday, June 13th, 2010

After Japan, now it is Europe to cut price. The price of both model DS’s falls, but not that of the XL.

Nintendo Europe confirmed that Nintendo DS Lite’s and the DSi’s prices will be dropping from June 18 in Europe.

Well, there has been no set amount yet for the drop in the prices because it will be left up to the retailers. They will be deciding the reduced price for the consoles.

It is not clear why this move comes from Nintendo. Is it that it is to clear stock for a new handheld that is coming soon?

Also in Australia there was a price fall of Nintendo DSi and the DS Lite was ignored after the DSi came to the market.

Well, don’t expect any more drop.
