Nintendo News: Nintendo Adds Color to Black Friday with Orange, Green Nintendo DSi Bundles

Black Friday is almost here, are you excited yet? I’m not, I hate to be a scrooge, but Christmas is not supposed to be about who buys the best present, and that’s all it’s become anymore. It’s all about shopping, and on that note I’d like to see one of these under my tree if someone would buy me one.
