Nintendo DS upgrade
Nintendo has announced it will release a new version of its popular DS handheld console next month. The Japanese maker said that the new console would be similar to the DS Lite but would be slimmer, have a bigger screen and will include a built-in camera and audio player.
Nintendo president and chief executive, Satoru Iwata, said that the dual-screen machine will go on sale in Japan from November 1 and in overseas markets early next year.
Nintendo has sold more than 20 million DS consoles in Japan alone since they were launched three years ago.
The Kyoto-based company is also the maker of the highly-successful Wii gaming console.
