How can EVRY DS be gone if you just said you found one at ToysRus? Just get the original DS.

Every DS can't be gone if you just said you found one at Toys R Us. Just get the original. It's basically the same thing except it's bigger than the DS lite. With big-time electronics, it's pretty near impossible to get them so soon after the holiday season.

Yeah, getting a game system after the holidays is a big mistake. I remember when I got my 360 towards the end of january and the only store that had any was Toys R Us and Gamestop only had the Halo 3 edition 360s. And thatw as almosta month after Christmas. Good luck to you, I have seen DSs in stores here but I live in ND.

honestly the Lite is better, of course he wants the newer version of the ds. as for the eBay thing I would think people should just be selling them. You can probobly even get a new one for about the same price as the stores if you need to.

If you REALLY want the DS lite, then I suggest, calling a store, asking when the next shipment comes in, and asking if you could reserve a DS. It's not really the best idea to try to get a game system so soon after Christmas. I got lucky when looking for my DS and my Wii. I managed to be in the right place at the right time.

I love my DS Lite, but the DS Fat has a better D-pad, IMO. You'd be better off if you're more concerned with functionality over aesthetic.

And... sorry mate, serves you right for waiting until after November to decide you want a DS. :/

You've already waited 4 years to purchase a DS. Just wait another couple months and get a DSi at launch. You'll probably regret it if you get a Lite now.

I sold my DS phat this christmas to get a DS Lite for my brother (he still plays gameboy advance games), me myself am eagerly awaiting the DSi to come out in the US. . .

Get a DSi, it'll be worth the wait.

First of all, all of the stores will be fully stocked by February. Secondly the DSi is 180$ which is 50$ more than a normal DS. The DSi is just a gimmicky mistake Nintendo has made by making a console more like there lagging competitor's. Last of all, if you are in a hurry you could order one from Amazon, a new one.

Wow You have that many Electronic stores to check?

Us Canadians don't have that many of those stores and we have tons of DS lites in.
