1) the only colors so far available are navy blue, that light blue, and white. I don't think other colors have been anounced.
2) The DS lite is supposed to hit US at may, no price has been announced, though I'm assuming anyware from $150-$200

Like geekbait said, maybe navy blue, light powder blue, and crack cocaine white. NOA may not have the guts to release the light blue one here right away because it may be deemed too grrly, based on past decisions. But as far as pricing goes, it will be no more than $150 (preferably $130 =) released during May or June.

:shock: it won't be more than $150?
The DS (normal) is about $130, so it'll be around $100 now :P !

That's actually what I'm hoping for.. and you know, that would be the wisest course of action, price wise.

If Ninty immediatly prices the DS lite at 130 USD then...
$100 DS phat
$80 GCN (or not)
$80 GBA micro
$60 GBA SP


Approximations be damned. If they move the DS price ranges, then obviously the GBA lines will have to decrease as well. The GCN most likely will need to be adjusted to compete with such value, though I think Nintendo may hold out on pricing it lower for now. Who knows, especially with Sony's $20 decrease. When the Revolution comes, then we'll see some definite price cuts if we haven't already by then.
