A European release date, release colours, and a release price. What more could you ask for?

According to the all-round marvellous DS-x2 (though we still think the name gba.n64europe.com is catchier), the following details are correct - though still officially unrevealed by Nintendo themselves.

The DS Lite will hit Europe on the 16th August this year - around five months on from its Japanese launch. We will get the three launch colours seen already (Crystal White, Enamel Navy and Ice Blue) and it'll be on sale for �129.99 (around �89, $155).

Again, this news is unconfirmed by Nintendo. More as it breaks.
