I want all three!
Nintendo gives European gamers a splash of colour with new DSi models
From October 23rd lucky European DSi fans will be able to get their grubby hands on not one but THREE new shades of their favourite console.
Perfectly complimenting the current black and white editions, the new DSi colours are Metallic Blue, Light Blue and Red.
What's more, the new units will come pre-packed with the unique Facebook application and the superb Flipnote Studio. If you need reminding why Flipnote is the best thing since sliced bread then check out Corbie's review.
As if this wasn't enough, you'll also score 1000 free DSi points when you connect to the DSi shop using the wireless connection.

What!? Is that a red DSi I see? Red? And only in Europe for the time being? Why, Nintendo, why? Why do you have to taunt me...

Damm it all, I would have bought the Metallic Blue one if I didn't have a Black one. Oh well
Can't say I like the others though. Not nearly as good

That's good that Nintendo is installing Flipnote Studio and the latest firmware that fb photo uploaded by default.

Australia just got a purplish/pink and another colour that escapes me right now.
The only thing I hate about new colours, is that if one comes out that you want, you can't carry over your downloads. And if there IS a way, it'd probably be incredibly hard and frustrating

Imo black and white are the only ways to go when you buy a ds.

Red and Blue!! I want!! Jealous.. We just got pink and white.. BORING... I have a black dsi myself and I couldn't be happier, but if I were to buy mine now I'd get dark blue or red

I have a black DSi, but i'd sooooooo trade it in for a red one.

I do like white though...
20. RurouniTeeter

The red one is very nice. I got the cyan one myself and I'm happy with it cause its more of a unique color. Although red is my favorite color....Hmm... Oh well. I don't live in Europe, no biggie.

I wish that NA would have gotten the red one. Oh well guess we might see it next DSi update.

That metallic blue color would match my armor and cassette deck so well! But I'm not European. And I have a black DSi.

We got all the red we needed with the Virtual Boy.

Wow, one of my subscriptions, TheNintend0Channel, has one. it's actually a glossy finish instead of a matte finish the normal DSi systems sport.

Curse me for buying a black DSi when it came out!!!
I'd kill for the dark blue DSi, it's my favorite color
27. minial100
23 Sep 2009, 04:08 BST
Ummm... Until my freaking 300$ total DSi dies, I AM NOT buying a new DSi. As much as I like the red and dark blue, I'll keep my 100$ in downloads thanks.

23 Sep 2009, 04:18 BST
you spelled "color" wrong
Anyway, I think those colors are hideous. If I had any money, I'd have a black DSi

Enjoy the awful light blue color. Wish we had white at launch instead of that nasty thing. Ah well, black is nice too.

Wish you could transfer downloads and get a pink one. I like my black one though. I really want to know how they figure out what colors will do better in different regions and when to release new colors. All the randomness, it just doesn't make sense. Why can't we who love our DS's and bought one early have some choice too?

FINALLY RED! I am At 90% won over factor.
Now if only this small issue of DSI exclusives being region locked hadn't arisen.

Sometime I hope my silver DS L "dies" so I "have to" buy a new DSi - in this case the dark blue one ^^

I kinda like the light blue one.

Damn, that glossy dsi looks awesome. USA plz.

Makes you wonder if Nintendo of America will have the red and metallic blue colors coming out in this region.
Those in the US that want these colors, send out a message to Cammie Dunaway about it. She's the VP of sales and marketing at their company.

I'm really sure that Nintendo is having fun with the different colours and games it's offering in each region. They watch us beeing envious at each other & laugh at us!

I've noticed some people out there in the WWW saying that Nintendo should release a PokeDex app for DSiWare. Then if you had the red DSi...

Yeah I like the new colours but until Nintendo announces a VC service for DSi I won't be getting one. Oh Well.....
