I'll wait to it to go retro. That would be better and you can then get it for a tenner! Funny, just yesterday (having not been on this) I wondered why Nintendo hadn't thought of having a digital camera for the DS, although I was thinking more of an attachment rather than a whole new console. Who remembers the gameboy camera? That was fun.

Meh, I love my first gen DS. I bought a Lite once, but I ended up sending it back...the screen was too bright and hurt my eyes (even on the lowest brightness), the colors were all distorted (blue looked purple, brown looked yellow, etc.), the ghosting was terrible, the corners were sharp and uncomfortable, it was too small to hold, and the buttons weren't clicky.

But I guess a lot of people don't really mind *shrugs*

I've got a Gameboy Printer, found it at Goodwill 8)

Haven't tried it out yet, though...it's out of paper, so I'd have to cut my own.

I guess all I can really do with it is print out the portraits in Zelda :roll:

A couple months ago? o_O Where?

The DS came out in 2004, the Lite came out in 2006.

They cut out the GBA slot to make the DSi smaller.

Congratulations, Nintendo.

I got a DS Lite for Christmas last year, and a DS two years before that... so what, in 2009 you want me to buy that? Their photo-editing program had better be good!

Geez. Look at my stupidity. XP
