Im having trouble choosing between the onyx and polar white ds. From what I hear the polar white is:

-sleek
-bright
-original
-scratches and smudges don't appear easily

And the onyx is:

-stylish
-deep
-unique
-scratches and smudges show up easier

If scratches, or finger prints didn't show up on the onyx ds, I would most likely get that one, but I am also thinking about the polar white because they don't show up as much and I tend to be a litle paranoid from scratches and smudges.

I would go for the more appealing one... It doesn't make sense to get one based on its overall scratch durability, they make them in different colors so you can choose your favorite....

Get the red and black one, its more unique than the other 2, the white one will show any speck of dirt, the black one shows fingerprints really bad. Just a suggestion.

Black = Fingerprints. White = Specks of dust.

xD It's really your choice. Just pick whatever you think looks cooler. If you really are paranoid like me about fingerprints and such, like REAAALLY paranoid, just get the white. Either way, it's not like you'll be staring at your DS all day long... you'll be staring at their screens. :P

My son and I both have the black one and we just wipe it off after each game play and they look like brand new.

I'd go for the black one because it looks good, though it's a pain to keep clean because it shows fingerprints.

I heard that the L and R buttons on the black one don't work that well after playing for a while. Is that true?

Sorry for bringing up this old thread, but my hands can get pretty sweaty and greasy especially when playing a game. Would this put any brown, darker smudges on the polar white one? It happens to my computer mouse and if I forget to clean, it's harder to scrub it out later.

Get pink! That's what I did (and I'm a guy..straight guy...lol) =3 people will be like, WTF, Y U HAV PIKN DS?! And i'd be like, 8) 'cause I'm cool like that...haha

Pink is totally unique, it's different, and it's individual...and you can laugh at the people who don't like it XD 'cause they're silly.

plus kirby is pink and kirby is awesome (subliminal messeging)!

Also, I think smudges, stains etc. don't show up as good on pink as they do on black/white

It really does not matter about smudges and scratches!!

I have a White DS and I can clean it every 3 months and it looks brand new. It is also much more stylish so I would most definitely go for the white
