Enid Blyton's Faraway Tree on Nintendo DS
Filed in archive Nintendo DS on December 9, 2009
Enid Blyton’s legendary series of novels, The Faraway Tree are to be made available on Nintendo DS, EA Games have revealed in the Telegraph. The books, written in the 1930s and ‘40s, have stood the test of time and are to be given a new lease of life, making them available to children in the DS’ latest piece of innovation. Thanks to the new FLIPS format, books will be enhanced by the touchscreen of the DS. The reader only has to insert one FLIP chip, containing about seven novels and costing around £25, and they are able to read the book page by page.

The news comes out in conjunction with a rise in sales of other electronic book readers such as the Sony Reader, just in time for Christmas. This will set you back around £200 at the minute, while you can make your cheaper DS, which you already own and enjoy flexing your brain on, into an e-book reader for around £25 a go. While this may be more expensive than you pay for each book on the Sony equivalent, the hardware is less expensive and surely more useful...
