So I might be late to the party, but it seems the new Cobalt/Black DS Lite really is coming out. Now, I managed to get a sneak peek at one at my nearby GameStop (they had a demo model tucked in the back, ready to take out in a manner of days). And I gotta say, it's the ugliest thing I've ever seen. Pretty much, I wouldn't give up either my Polar White nor my Crimson & Black DS Lite for this one. It has a wierd sheen that makes it just look strange, and honestly, I thought it looked plain cheap, not awesome-cool the way the crimson/black one looks ;) *toots own horn*.

But in all seriousness, even if I didn't have a DS, I'd buy a regulation White one rather than this one. What do you guys think? Has anyone else seen one in the flesh? What do you think of it?

I think it looks alright. If I hadn't bought my black ds lite last march, I would certainly have traded my original DS for one of these.

I think it looks pretty sweet actually. But I have a black lite, so I'm all set. If I didn't have one, I'd probably try to get a hold of the crimson one, though.

I like it, and with the Mario Party and Mario and Sonic: Olympic Games bundle for 199.00 from Gamestop, it's a sweet deal too.

I hate these 2-piece color DSs. They look like the ran out of the bottom half of the DS so just ripped one off another one.

They should have a clear-case DS version. Like the Gameboy Color and Gameboy Advance.

I think it looks eons better than the crimson/black one. That one looked more like a 'toy' to me. The cobalt makes it look more sleek and 'mature', if that makes sense.

But really, I prefer just one color.

I agree, I think that it looks really bad. The combination just looks really odd. But a lot of people seem to like it so more money for Nintendo.

I like it, but I don't see myself buying a new DS any time soon. I'd probably get this one if I needed a new one.

Its ok. If i had to choose between this and an OLD DS I would pick this one, but i prefer all of the other ds lite colors.
