The Nintendo DS's dual-screen design has always invited book comparisons, and the new DSi XL (http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/24/nintendos-oversized-dsi-xl-heading-to-the-us-on-march-28th-for/) even more so with those two 4.2-inch displays, so now's as good a time as any for Nintendo to announce that its 100 Classic Book Collection will be coming to American shores on June 14 for $20. Joystiq says they're expecting the book list to be the same as the Euro pack (http://www.joystiq.com/2008/12/11/shakespeare-dickens-twain-and-more-coming-to-ds/#continued), so expect some choice public domain works here -- we doubt this has got any of the big e-book players shaking in their shoes, but just wait until Miyamoto releases the $129 Wii Eye Motion Detector with packed-in Mario's Read Speed mini-game. Then it's gonna get crazy.Nintendo to release 100 Classic Book Collection for DS on June 14 (http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/24/nintendo-to-release-100-classic-book-collection-for-ds-on-june-1/) originally appeared on Engadget (http://www.engadget.com) on Wed, 24 Feb 2010 23:03:00 EST.
