Nintendo has finally announced the launch of the Opera web browser for the DS onOctober 6, 2006 . In Japan the browser powered by Opera is already available (since July 24, 2006).
Taking advantage of the DS’ built-in Wi-Fi capabilities the browser allows the user to
access the full internet, incl. webmail, online shops or secure bank websites. The browser will be sold as an optional DS card.
