This piece of news is a bit of a no-brainer, but Nintendo have announced three new colours for the DSi will be available from October 23rd. The colours are Metallic Blue, Light Blue and Red.

The new colours will come pre-loaded with the very popular Flipnote Studio and will also have the Facebook functionality right out of the box. Also, anyone who buys a DSi from now until March 31st, 2010 will be able to receive 1,000 Nintendo DSi points for free which will allow you to purchase exclusive DSiWare games and applications through the DSi Shop.
Red DSi
We want one now!
Not only are Nintendo bringing out new colours for the DSi but they also announced a new games called Nintendo presents: Style Boutique where you run your own fashion store and enter fashion contests. Yes, really.

“Nintendo presents: Style Boutique, for both the Nintendo DS and Nintendo DSi, challenges you to run your own fashion store as a style consultant, hand pick your own stock from 10,000 items, take part in Fashion Contests to win special items, open a branch of your shop online and even play against other consultants in multiplayer modes. Working your way up from shop assistant in a store, you can offer clothing advice and outfits for customers. With each customer having their own style and personality, you need to choose their clothes carefully to make a successful sale.”

If we were in a Roman coliseum, right now, we’d be giving Nintendo presents: Style Boutique some major thumbs down, whilst shouting “KILL THEM!”. The new colours sound pretty cool, though.
