Europe will receive three new variants of the DS next month, with light blue, red and lime green coloured handhelds on the way.

The light blue handheld had previously been available in other markets, so it shouldn’t be a shock to see it here. We haven’t seen the red one before though, and the lime-green one is just all kinds of new.
