Nintendo will roll out a Mother's Day DS bundle in the United States featuring a lime green DS Lite, a coordinating carrying case, and Personal Trainer Cooking. According to Engadget, the decidedly fetching new color rolls out May 3, although reports haven't indicated a price for the bundle. Similar packages, such as the limited-time Black Friday bundles that included a colored system, a case and a game, retailed for $149.99. Neither is it indicated whether this version will also be time-limited, as special-edition holiday bundles in the past have been. In January, Nintendo named Personal Trainer: Cooking as one of 15 first-party titles that had sold a million units or over; the game had sold 1.68 million units as of the announcement. Recent TV ad campaigns have starred actress Lisa Kudrow casually using the game in a kitchen, part of Nintendo's marketing push for DS toward adult women.
