Nintendo is planning to launch a new DS handheld games system next year, according to US blog Kotaku.

The story, which claims the DS successor will feature two touch-sensitive screens, said the device would not be offically announced until after Christmas.

The DS is still selling well in the US and Europe, but sales of the handheld have fallen in Japan during the three months to June this year.

According to the NPD Group, as of June 30, 2008 sales of the DS topped 20 million in the US.
