Iwata's GDC keynote to shed some light on Lite

After snooping around the ongoing Game Developer's Conference, the guys at DS Advanced have reported that Satoru Iwata's keynote tomorrow is likely to lay out Nintendo's plans for the American DS Lite launch. If their information is to be trusted, Mr. Iwata will be announcing both a firm release date and a price for that most desirable of handheld redesigns. The question of whether or not this turns out to be true should be answered in less than 24 hours from now.

Of course, we can't let this one slip by without tossing in some of our own pompous and potentially embarrassing predictions:

• The original DS will be reduced in price to an attractive $99.
• The DS Lite will launch in June at the equally attractive price of $149.99.
• A classy black DS Lite will replace the Arctic Blue model in the US (because that one simply isn't attractive enough).
• New Super Mario Bros. will be bundled with either the Phat or the Lite in order to attract more buyers.

Note: We also predict that our predictions won't be entirely accurate, so subscribe to them with caution.
