New DS Lites Shipping With Cheaper Screens?

Posted by x3sphere at August 26, 2007, 12:45 pm


A NeoGAF member checked out three of the recently released Brain Age DS Lite bundles and to his dismay, screens on the new two-toned DS Lites found in the bundle have a diminished viewing angle and ghosting is also much more apparent (check out the comparison videos: Brain Age DS Lite and Black DS).

All of this just begs the question: is Nintendo shipping out DS Lites with cheaper screen to cut costs and eventually make way for a price drop? Or, is this simply an isolated manufacturing problem?

Nintendo DS Lite gets new LCD screens. Not for the better unfortunately. [NeoGAF]

Those comparison videos weren't really worth posting. I have a PSP, so I KNOW what ghosting looks like. But with the videos so freaking blurry, I couldn't tell which one had more ghosting than the other.
