E3 2004: DS = Developer's System?

May 16, 2004 at 05:12 PM in

We guess that poor translation may be the culprit in this official press release on the Japanese Nintendo site, where the DS in Nintendo DS is said to refer to the "Developers' System." Could they mean that the current incarnation of the hardware is just the developer's version? Can you tell we REALLY want the DS to look as cool as the PSP does, and hope there is another design in the wings?
