Korg’s DS-10 Nintendo DS Instrument is Getting International Release
Good news: the Korg DS-10, a Nintendo DS musical instrument (synth + drum machine + sequencer) based on Korg’s MS-10, is not going to be limited to Japan, despite what the publisher’s website says. From the DS-10 blog:
Hi there! my name is Tomi from AQI Inc.and I’ll be in charge of this product for international territories. For those of you out there wondering the release of DS-10 other than Japan, well, here’s a good news. YES, we will release DS-10 worldwide and currently we’re making an adjustment with each territory. So please be patient. Your support means a lot to us and we’ll keep you all with the latest update of the international release as soon as possible.
Thanks to Mark Mathews for the tip!

@Richard: maybe it’s all in the preset design?

something tells me they should have waited and developed this for the iphone / ipod touch instead.

Hmmm… except for the fact that the DS has sold something like 50 million units versus iPhone which is something like a 10th of that, the stylus is more precise than your finger for the application here, the DS is available worldwide and iPhone isn’t, and the DS is cheaper.
