Anyone know where I could get a DS?

I already have a DS lite, but it's pink and I've had it for a long time. I've decided to start looking for a Dsi. (At least. I heard the 3ds is good, but doesn't it hurt your eyes?)

So where are some good websites that sell either the dsi or the 3ds for a little cheaper? I'm looking on ebay, but not much luck... sad
I need a new one, to narrow it down even more.

I don't know, maybe eBay. I have an original DS. (not even a DS Lite. It could play GBA games.)

Re: Anyone know where I could get a DS?

You could trade in your pink DSlite at a Gamestop to contribute to the cost of the DSi.

You know, you can disable the 3D on the 3DS with the slider.

Re: Anyone know where I could get a DS?

Best Buy or Gamestop in maybe a couple months.

Eventually the price will go much lower, and you'll get the DSi for a bargain  wink

I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE my DSi. I play it all the time. It's definitely worth the money  big_smile  The 3DS is... eh. I mean the 3D features are cool, but the system is weird.

Let's just say the 3DS is cool for 3D games, and DSi is good for everything else.

Re: Anyone know where I could get a DS?

The 3DS is to the DS as the GBA is to the Gameboy.
The 3DS is the new generation and I hate when people talk about it as if it is a DS.

Re: Anyone know where I could get a DS?

At least your DS isn't broken like mine is. You should just get a 3ds so you won't hav eto be envious of the new awesome games.

Re: Anyone know where I could get a DS?

3DS doesn't hurt eyes. Nintendo makes one statement about no 7 year olds to avoid possible sues (even without any age-related eye strain evidence or proof) and everyone goes BONKERS.

I always play at max 3d and it's fine and EPIC.

BETTER online stuff.
SYSTEM UPDATES to constantly improve.
3D games.
3DSWARE (coming soon)
EPIC games

Why is DSi so much better for everything else.

Re: Anyone know where I could get a DS?

A 3DS doesn't hurt your eyes, unlees you're under 6 and/or play it for 30 minutes under 3D mode or more.... you can turn the 3D effects off, though, and still get the rest of the features.

Actually, there is a switch at the side of the 3DS where you can toggle it from 3-D to normal, so you're good to go. Saw it at Target and decided to give it a try. However, before you buy it, I suggest you try it out just to see if it meets your liking and standards.  wink  Hope that helps!

And the 3DS can run all the DSiWare.

Re: Anyone know where I could get a DS?

Getting a normal DS over a 3DS is like buying a normal Game Boy over a Game Boy Advance. Besides, they'll likely abandon the normal DS line in the near future, so I would strongly recommend against it.

It's your money, though, so do what you want with it.


I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.
