New DS rumoured for E3

From Akayuki.com:

According to the President of Enterbrain, (Famitsu parent company) there is a chance a new Nintendo DS model will be revealed at E3 2008.

Nintendo spokesman Hiroshi Yasushi did not deny this rumour, but told Famitsu that the company cannot comment at this point.

A new successor to the DS shouldn’t come as a surprise, as the handheld has sold over 64 million units worldwide, with Japanese sales approaching 27 million.

Checking with Nintendo. Hold your breath. Probably don’t.

It definitely needs something to end the drift. Although, if that piece is correct they shifted another 5 million in Japan in the last week :D

There’s definitely going to be another, although it seems a bit early doesn’t it? I’m not sure how they can improve on the DSL design though.
