DS Lite launching in South Africa

According to this, DS Lite is about to launch in South Africa, alongside New Super Mario Bros, Nintendogs, Mario Kart DS and Dr Kawashima’s Brain Training: How Old is Your Brain. South African gamers will be able to pick up four colours: white, black, silver and pink. Unfortunately, you won't be able to get the cobalt blue SKU, South African people, but we're sure you'll survive.

It's a good day for South African Nintendo fans. Core Gaming Group, the distributor of Nintendo stuff straight down under, is also releasing Super Mario Galaxy and Mario Party 8 for Wii. That report also claims that the Wii Shopping Channel is launching in South Africa and that the country will now follow the PAL territories release schedule.
