Just in time for the holidays, Nintendo has announced two limited edition Nintendo DSi harware bundles, each coming pre-installed with "more than $20" worth of software.

Available in North America "while supplies last" beginning Friday, November 27--the day after Thanksgiving, often referred to as Black Friday--both the white "Brain Age Bundle" and metallic blue "Mario Collection" will be available at the hardware's usual price of $169.99, according to an advance Best Buy circular obtained by Kotaku.

For details on the downloadable games contained in each bundle, read on:

      Cause the XL is bloody huge and not everyone wants one.

        Yeah, but the (Much) bigger screen will be nice, and it actually hurts my gorilla hands to hold the DS Lite for very long.
