MCV: New DS Announced Tomorrow

MCV, a respected gaming news publication out of the UK, has stated "according to [an] impeccable source in Japan" that "Nintendo will announce a new, updated version of its DS console at a press conference tomorrow morning." They cite the exact time of the conference to run at 5AM UK, or late tonight/early morning for Americans. Given the short timetable on this rumor, we'll know either way soon enough. But it's possibly that Nintendo wants to announce the products before any more leaks occur. [MCV]

Are These Screens from the New Nintendo DS?

This allegedly leaked photo of new Nintendo DS screens has played a game of Google Translate telephone before making its way to Giz wearing red sox and green hair, but from what we can make out from the source, the big difference in the updated display is a shift in screen size from 3 inches to 3.25 inches. It's still not a widescreen system like many of us would prefer, but then again, the alteration shouldn't mess with the aspect ratio of existing DS titles, either. [Byokan Sunday via GoNintendo]

Nintendo Neither Confirms Nor Denies New DS

After Japan's mainstream newspaper Nikkei announced a new DS with a camera, music player and enhanced wireless functionality, Nintendo had to say something in response. To gaming magazine Famiitsu:

We are always developing new products. However, since nothing has been announced officially, we are unable to comment at this time.

That's the most softly delivered "no comment" that I've ever seen. But take it as you will. [Famitsu via Kotaku]

Nintendo Shuts Down New DS Rumor Hard

Those of you hoping for a next-gen DS to be unveiled by Nintendo at E3 this year will have to stop by the supermarket to get a gallon of consolation ice cream on your way home from work. Nintendo Japan just shut down the rumor by saying "We cannot comment...but at the very least there won't be anything like what Mr. Hamamura suggested..." That's a complete denial if we ever heard one. Of course, Nintendo could be going in a completely different direction and rolling out a Nintendo Triple Screen, the TS. That would be nothing like what Mr. Hamamura suggested. [IGN via Go Nintendo via Kotaku]
