There's a strange phenomenon associated with Nintendo press conferences. While the actual events are over within a matter of hours, the repercussions can be felt for days and days on end, with news, pictures and videos exploding from every one of the Internet's strange orifices. Not that we're complaining, mind you.Over at the official Japanese Nintendo website, they've posted a glut of photos from the the recently DS Lite press conference--14 pages to be exact. This includes informative graphs, game box art, potentially lewd suggestions, people marked for death in 7 days, screenshots from upcoming games (including Tetris DS, Calligraphy Training, Children of Mana, Xenosaga I-II, Tenchu: Dark Shadow, Tales of the Tempest, New Super Mario Bros., Final Fantasy III, Dynasty Warriors DS, Mario Basket: 3 on 3) and of course, completely mesmerized Japanese women.

Some of the Japanese software is made to be used that way. Watch the videos.

The brain games and the new Rub Rabbits has modes that requires the DS to be used sideways. The pic is old though and has been there for quite some time.

Only a week left (plus/minus a few days) ! Will definately be hard to get to work on the 2nd, sure not only because of the release of DSLite. They are friendly (see EVIL) enough to release Children of Mana on the same day..(T_T) bah!

I'm not racist or anything but her eyes are definitely crossed. They couldn't fix that? She also looks a little tense.
So I'm definitely looking forward to Xenosaga and maybe that crazy triangle game there (I can't read Japanese). What is that; Logo?

People, her eyes are not crossed. Do none of you know any Asian people in real life? Their eyes are shaped differently than ours, if you hadn't noticed - she only looks cross-eyed to you because you can't see the left corner of her right eye, so you can't judge the distance her iris is from that corner. Which is because she's, you know, Asian. I'm sure her irises are both pointed at the same spot on the DS.

I wonder if they are going to come out with an ebook reader for the DS?
