New Nintendo DS Colors and Download Centres improve sales

Tyranitar24 | June 27, 2008 | News | DS Gaming Tech/Hardware 
Last week, Nintendo released their Red, Green, and Turquoise DS's and a store that allows gamers to download demos straight to their DS in the UK. It seems to have a positive effect, raising the sales of the DS.
Nintendo UK has received an overwhelmingly positive response to its new range of DS colours and in-store DS centres, the firm has told MCV.

Nintendo released its Red, Green and Turquoise DS SKUs last week, along with new in-store centres that allows consumers to download demos of DS software onto their console. And Nintendo has told MCV that it’s all about offering extra choice and opportunities to consumers.
