Nintendo debuts PInk Ribbon DS Lite

Pink Ribbon DS Lite
Its always nice to see a corporation that’s swimming in money give to a worthy cause - and Nintendo has done just that. 1Up is reporting that the company released a new DS model - a pink ribbon version that retails for the usual $129.99, but $5 on each purchase will go to Susan G. Komen for the Cure - a foundation that supports breast cancer research and helps sufferers and survivors alike. The best part - even if the new SKU doesn’t sell, the big N has promised to donate at least $100,000 for the cause.

Aw, now isn’t that socially responsible? Nintendo may not be the most environmentally aware company in the world, but this is certainly a nice gesture.
