In order to capitalize on the sucess of “Talking DS Cooking Navi” and its upcoming sequel “Healthy Assistance Recipe 1000: DS Complete Menu (which focuses more on nutrition than the previous cooking game)”, Nintendo is releasing a new stand accessory for the DS that will let you stand the DS up on your kitchen counter or magnetize it to your fridge. Since both cooking games are touch-free once you’re in recipe mode, this device allows you to see your DS easier when you’re using it to cook in a cramped kitchen space. 
The stand slides into your DS’s GBA slot and seems to be only constructed for use with the DS Lite. The device will cost 1200 yen (probably $9.99 if it’s ever released state side), and it will be released in Japan on December 7th to coincide with the release of “Health Assistance Recipe 1000.”

A small stand is one thing but the magnetic anchor for refrigerators sounds dangerous. I wouldn't worry about the system getting messed up but I can just see someone putting their DS on the fridge and having it knocked to the ground somehow. Good thing Nintendo makes tough products.And I want to see if the cooking program will make it stateside. Still with Japanese recipes, I hope.
I really hope that a US version will come out at some point. I would love to have this software. Anyway, this little GIZMO has been out for a little while now, but I'm not B***ing…
I actually love this little magnet… maybe I can use it to play with my DS in the car while driving!
