http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.dsfanboy.com/media/2008/05/psds-pcp-mkp.jpg (http://www.dsfanboy.com/photos/nintendo-ds-mockups/746631/full/)Lately, there's been a lot of discussion over whether or not Nintendo is planning a redesign (http://www.dsfanboy.com/2008/05/08/nintendo-denies-ds-redesign-again/) of the wildly successful DS Lite. The rumors surfaced, and were drowned in a wave of denials ... but those denials were suspiciously similar (http://www.dsfanboy.com/2008/04/15/nintendo-dont-count-on-that-ds-redesign/) to the things we heard when Nintendo was busily denying the move from Phat to Lite prior to the launch of the newer model.
Nintendo redesigns things, especially when it comes to their handhelds. They love to launch the new model, the smaller, better design, and it seems likely that they'll continue that cycle with the DS. But will we see it this year? That's the question on the table today, and we'll look at both possibilities. After that, it's up to you to decide whether or not Nintendo will announce a new DS this year.
