News From Lik Sang (http://www.lik-sang.com/news.php?artc=3528&lsaid=219793) [br][br] Nintendo of Japan announced a TV Tuner for the Nintendo DS which will also work for the Gameboy Advance SP. The unit is supposed to hit the shelves of Japanese retailers in January 2005 for Yen 9,240. The unit requires 4 AAA alkaline batteries, which will provide 6 hours TV playback. The unit is being developed by Agatsuma Entertainment, and it is currently not known if it will be sold as first party accessory under the Nintendo brand, or as licensed accessory under the name of Agatsuma.[br][br]As soon as more news and better images emerge from Japan, especially about a planned US or European release, we will be updating the Nintendo DS section. In the meantime, the Japanese unit, which will most probably have some difficulties with PAL or US TV networks, has been placed on pre-order for US$ 89.
