There is yet another speculation about the new Nintendo DS! Earlier, there were rumors stating that Nintendo DS will roll out 7-inch widescreen DS model. However, the company completely disagreed with that gossip. The next rumor hinted the next generation Nintendo DS will be unveiled at E3 2008, which didn’t happen either. All we saw were new colors and limited editions of the Nintendo DS. But once again there seems to be news about the upcoming DS model by Nintendo.
Nintendo is preparing DS successor, which will release by end of this year, stated Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter.
According to Pachter, “It is likely that DS demand will continue to decline in Japan, and we think that Nintendo has a new handheld device ready for launch in that territory before the end of the calendar year. We think that the lion’s share of the expected 28 million DS hardware units shipped during the fiscal year will land in the US and Europe, and we expect to see strong software sales in those territories.â€
The Nintendo DS is seeing a decrease in sales in the Japanese market. Hopefully, this new DS will help rejuvenate the sales that is if or when it finally comes out.
