Cool! I can't remember the last time I saw such cool Japanese queue pictures. Shows how good the DS is that people are prepared to line up for ages to get something that's effectively been available (in the old form) for over a year!

Not that taken by the light blue colour, but the Navy one does indeed look awesome. I can't believe how shiny looking it is!

Yeah I think thats the thing you've got to look at. What people are queuing for is effectively a console thats well over a year old. Not only that but apparently the queues are bigger this weekend (due in part to the navy and light blue release) then they were for the original release last week!

Also its been stated already but look at the demographic of people queuing... kids, student, people in their 20s, 30s, old people... it really is quite amazing.

I think if Nintendo can get sufficient made in time, then May is looking a good time to release the Lite in the US.

Lite + New Mario Bros = Massive sales.
