Nintendo to release matte red and blue DSi systems. Wait, what?

Either 3DS sales are that bad or market research indicates some people still want to buy the stopgap system that is the Nintendo DSi, as today Nintendo announced via their Twitter account that the system will soon be available in new colors. Matte blue and matte red versions of the system will mark the dawn of a new era for people who hate visible fingerprints on their handheld systems more than they desire new games and hardware with the exact same features and then some.

Wait… I’ve got it! They’re releasing it for people with OCD so that they’ll stop endlessly wiping down their systems and pick up Pokémon White/Black 2 in a couple months. Brilliant!
