That's right. And the DS Lite is set to be reborn as a kitchen aid-cum-refrigerator ornament. To coincide with NCL's latest edutainment venture -- which is in essence a sequel to Shaberu! Oryouri Navi* -- the DS Lite Magnet Stand (as in, a stand which contains a magnet, and can thereby stand attached to a fridge door) will be released in Japan next week at ¥1200 (about US$10).
Presumably, this is to facilitate easy consultation when Japanese housewives are working their kitchen magic with the help of Kenkou Ouen Recipe 1000 DS Kondate Zenshuu (or, as we'd put it, "The Complete 1000-Recipe Healthy Eating Guide"). Or perhaps it's been designed to distract the portly gamer from reaching for so many refreshments. Either way, it's for the good of your body. And your body is your temple. Keep it clean. Over.
*More e-book than game, Shaberu! Oryouri Navi (which we'd translate as "Audio Cooking Guide") compiles more than 200 popular recipes and guides users through the whole process of making grub. It was, in fact, released in Japan in July of this year and continues to sell steadily.
