Hey everyone. Well it's been about a year since my Nintendo DS Lite left my hands, as well as the games that went with it, so I thought I would create this blog in it's memory, and to let a number of you know the story about my late Nintendo DS. :P Well, it's a rather pathetic story really. Truth be told, I let my brother's friend borrow it from me, as well as about ten games that I owend for it. I kept about three or four at my home. He was borrowing it because he wanted something to do as he was having surgery and needed to stay home. Well, after two months of him playing my Nintendo DS Lite, he gave it back to older brother so he could return it. Though my brother, being the sneaky, money hungry guy that he is ...

He pawned my Nintendo DS Lite and my games! :(

Yeah that's pretty much the story. I was incredibly upset when he did -- well, I was extremely angry despite the fact the fact that he continually denied what happened to it. Likely enough, maybe his friend pawned it for him instead. I just know that he was having financial difficulties at the time so he did that so he could pay the bills that he still owes to this day. It was such an unfortunate event and I'm bitter every time I think about it. :|

There were plenty of games that I was still looking to purchase on the DS such as Nintendogs, Final Fantasy III/IV, Chron Trigger, the new Advance Wars, Yoshi's Island DS, and now with more games being released such as Kingdom Hearts, Mario and Luigi III and Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, it's incredibly irritating to know that I no longer have the system that would've played those excellent looking games. Of course, I could do the smart thing and go buy another one, but being so tight on money already (including my family) it probably wouldn't be the best investment, considering I already invested a great deal into it already ... I'm still debating on whether or not I want the next handheld when it relases, but that surely won't be for awhile. After my brother pawned it, I decided to get rid of the remaining games I had, since it wouldn't have done me to well to keep them, since I had such a small amount of them, and they weren't even my favorites either ... I do miss that system sincerely; I spent so many happy hours with it! I never even got the chance to finish Phantom Hourglass! :cry: And I seriously kicked ass at Mario Kart too! Here's a list of the games that I had:

• Advance Wars: Dual Strike
• Brain Age
• Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow
• Elite Beat Agents
• Kirby: Canvas Curse
• The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
• Mario Kart: DS
• Mario & Luigi: Partners In Time
• Meteos
• Metroid Prime: Hunters
• New Super Mario Bros.
• Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney
• Sonic Rush
• Super Mario 64: DS
• Tony Hawk's American Sk8Land

Oh, and my brother stold and gave away Super Smash Bros. Melee the other day, and he stole and sold Metroid Prime for a quarter. :| I bought Prime again, but I'm still working to buy back Melee. I really need to give him a peace of my mind ... I'm such a peace lover though ...
