I know the above sounds weird, but it may be that Nintendo is making a marketing strategy. The DS was the same...I was launched in black and white (IIRC) and in a matter of months they started launching new colors and I personally know people who went out to their local GameStop and sold their DSs to buy the new colors...It's sad actually...
nevermind the colours...
what should be the main talking point is the similarity in price despite the exchange rate.. $169 - £149.
At todays rate, $169=£118. robbing gits!

No it's sick actually ... Like these retards who go out and trade in a car just to get another color and extend their payments for much longer. This is a child's mentality and it is sad to say that many, if not most, people fit into this catagory. Mindless, childlike retards. That is the main reason why we need to bring back the poll tax !!!
