Hm, I wonder what will come out of this? And if I'm not mistaken isn't Sharp also the supplier or PSP screens? Or did Sony move to their screens or Samsung's? I can't remember lol.

Good, maybe DS prices can finally come down.

I doubt it.


Demand is still strong for the DS Lite, and Nintendo would just rather continue selling it at the current price and have a nice profit boost from it. Though if US sales start to be affected by the slowing economy, we might see a price drop then.
