Nintendo is set to offer limited edition bundles for its Nintendo DS gaming system. The bundles for the handheld device will be Mario Red and Ice Blue. Each bundle will sport a game title with the DS unit.

Nintendo of America is set to launch two new limited edition bundles for its Nintendo DS gaming system. Starting on Friday, November 28, Nintendo will launch the two colorful bundles with a game title.

The Mario Red bundle includes a red system with a copy of New Super Mario Bros. The Ice Blue bundle has a custom carrying case with the popular Brain Age: Train Your Brain In Minutes a Day.

Each Nintendo DS bundle sells for $149.99.

"Nintendo DS is both the most affordable and the most popular video game system in this generation," Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America's executive vice president of Sales & Marketing, said in a statement.

"These limited-edition bundles make great gifts for first-time Nintendo DS players and collectors alike," Dunaway added.

Both bundles have distinctive colors. Nintendo expects a total sell out of the new limited editions.
