In collaboration with publisher Harper Collins, Nintendo will release a collection of 100 classic books for DS on December 26, 2008.
The classic book collection of 100 titles from famous authors such as Shakespeare and Charles Dickens will have you holding your DS like a book and use the stylus to turn the pages. You can adjust the text size to whatever suits you best and a bookmark feature means dog-eared pages are a thing of the past.
The 100 Classic Book Collection allows you to search for books in a number of different ways, such as subject matter and length, meaning you can find a suitable story in seconds. As well as the novels, you can access book introductions and find out more on the authors themselves - there are also additional books that you can download via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.
