I was the first one at my gamestop to get one. I got it the day it came out. I would suggest calling up stores in your area and see when they get new shipments in. Also it helps to be at the store early if they do because the wii and the ds sell out pretty quickly.

The DS has been sold out for well over a year now at most retailers

A good thing to do is check stores online and select purchase in store, if they have one buy it then and just pick it up. That way one is held for you.

In the capital city of Michigan I can go to about 10 different stores and find ds's 75% of the time, so to say they have been sold out that long is crazy.

I picked mine up yesterday, but it was the last one on the shelf. Try waiting a week or so, or ask the store if they can reserve one for you.

Awesome for people who need a DS and live near you

Unfortunately that's not the case in most places.

Stores are sold out of white and black and most stores are missing pink as well (but that's still the color you'll find most times)

The reason you see the cobalt ones is because they're the ones that were most recently shipped.

I gave been looking in the local Wal-Mart and Kmart for months and I can't even remember the last time I saw a DS there. So yeah it's definitely tricky to find 'em.

I bought my Cobalt from my local Best Buy store as well... and they had a few extras, so I'm going to assume that Best Buy bought a fair amount of them. So, yeah, Best Buy is a good place to check :P
