- PDAIsAOk, on 10/12/2007, -3/+30the white DS Lite has a matte finish on the inside too.
- tsunamisteve, on 10/12/2007, -6/+29I prefer "DS Black Lite".
- projectducky, on 10/12/2007, -4/+27Plz sir, could you use full words? If you don't have the time to spell "Please", than I don't have the time to visit your site
- tehJR, on 10/12/2007, -4/+20Is the black one $150 more?
- NoSuccess, on 10/12/2007, -2/+17@mikecampo: except the dslite in white is the same matte texture on the inside
- PDAIsAOk, on 10/12/2007, -6/+17Damn that is sexy, I'll have to hold out though to see if the Wii will initially be black or white. Im already afraid of my white DS Lite getting dirty though. Is the US getting the black DS Lite?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13Who said anything about it being innovative?
It just looks damn sexy - Dgen_X, on 10/12/2007, -5/+15one word Mike, fingerprints
matte on the inside will reduce the fingerprint smudges that you'll be looking at while playing - levyjl1988, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Don't forget Gameboy Micro, now even smaller LOL:P
- xelloss, on 10/12/2007, -3/+12I will take this one thank you.
- Wonotch, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9bury
- supert0ad, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8there's always something better coming. if you keep holding out for the next version, you'll never buy anything
- colonelpanic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Yeah. Your sites design is disusting, and thats not news, thats advertising.
- Kruncher, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9I swear, if I hear the phrase "after the jump" one more time, I am going to freak!
- NoSuccess, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7the black macbook is 100% matte black though (not just the insides)
- LouisC, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7The black color's also similar to my logitech keyboard and mouse...
zomg they're copying logitech!!!!!!!!!!!!!1eleven - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+9Apple invented black?
- masamunexs, on 10/12/2007, -5/+11It looks nice from the outside, but the white ds lite has a nice finish when opened. The Dull black looks kinda archaic.
- LunarOcean, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5There's this thing that happens - new products come out, and people buy them for their improvements if they so desire. It's a little different than looking at the price of a single unit.
- wilf_brim, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Wow, makes my blue DS look like a complete POS by comparison. But they play the same; I'm not going to part with 2 c notes just for looks and a marginally better screen. Nonetheless, damn, that looks hawt. Or as hawt as a handheld could be. Maybe if Mila Jovavitch was playing it. Naked. Then it would be hotter.
- Wonotch, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I would list all of the over-priced-letdowns-with-trivial-updates that Sony has released in the past 15 years, but I'm afraid the list would be so long that id hate myself for wasting the time it would take doing it.
Maybe you should do "a simple search on google"? ;) - neocitron, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4nice... very happy with my DS lite so far... does what i expect it to do.. play superfun Nintendo games
- tsar04, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5you can also get a usb charger for the ds lite
- m00nstone, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I'm not a handheld gamer. I love PC gaming, I like console gaming.
I can't help it though, this thing makes me gush. It's geeky hot! - SweetMercury, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6Damn!
When will it be available in the US? - LunarOcean, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3@Colonelpanic
New Gameboy every 6 months so you can play new games? Ok, let's get our facts straight a little bit.
What kind of portable Nintendo games have been made since the Gameboy came out?
-Original Gameboy games
-Gameboy color games. Gameboy color played original Gameboy games
-Gameboy Advance games. GBA, GBA SP (Not sure about Micro, but I imagine it does) play original Gameboy and Gameboy Color games
-DS Games. The DS plays Gameboy Advance games, but not original Gameboy or Gameboy color games. This is the only system that, to my knowledge, is not entirely backward compatible.
The GBA was around a long time before the DS came out. Simply seeing new systems come out in no way would mean you *have* to have them to play certain games. The format of them has only changed three times even though many more systems have come out that play them. - ThatOneFatGuy, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5Because glossy surfaces can make a man get all hot and what not!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Since the PSP, I have determined that I will never buy glossy black equipment, if I can help it. Those fingerprints are just too annoying. I wish they would make a matte black (it also shows scratches less), but even a glossy white shows less fingerprints than black. Just my $.02
- cheez, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3sweet, but it looks a lot like the dark blue one, i think the term is "enamel navy"
http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-9h-49-en-70-18un.html - Onibus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2The black DS Lite would be nice to have in class... blends in with the shadows as you sit in the back of the room...
The white one shouts "Look at me! I'm playing my Nintendo DS Lite instead of learning!"
Let me tell you, that's not a good thing.
Can't wait for the Opera Browser on the DS... then I can surf the web. - burke, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Flesh? I was unaware the DS Lite was the product of Genetic Engineering. Way to push the boundaries, Nintendo!
- tsar04, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2they look similar, but this is the black one that's only available in europe right now.
japan has ice(?) blue, enamel navy, white,
usa has white
and europe has black...maybe white too, i can't remember. - AwesomeMonster, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4What exactly has apple done to innovate with the ipods? Its just a solid product, nothing new, same goes with the computers, they don't innovate at all, nice use of buzz words anyways.
- greenbox, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5i remember seeing a whole bunch of ds lites under the gba and ds games at target. oh, how i wished i had the money. anyway, i really hope these black lites get to America. i mean it be common sense not to sell them. i don't think anyone at Nintendo HQ is thinking "you think anyone would like a black ds lite?... nah". it just sounds preposterous.
- techlinks, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I personally like my white DS lite better than black. The only thing is the possibility fo it getting dirty.
- trekkie, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Sexy? I suppose you also tried to watch the porno channels back when they were scrambled by turning the horizontal and the vertical until you could get an upside down inverted and negative image that only scrolled three times a second.
Those are the fuzziest pictures I've ever seen, kinda hard to see anything with any 'sexiness' at all to me. - bostisch, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Anything with a battery doesn't run on AC, so you need only worry about charging it. That being said, there are already chargers made for 110V 60Hz. Ergo, you can import a DS Lite from Europe, but you'll need a DC converter made for the US market.
- Etheo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2The matte finish on the White DS doesn't look as cheap though for some reason...
- tsar04, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3why does it encourage sweating?
- artanis, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2There are a ton of fingerprints on the glossy cover of my white one, but you cant tell because its white :P On the black one I bet they show up pretty good in the light.
- corsairstw, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5Seeeeexy!
- everfalling, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1i know power concerns are a problem, but what about the games themselves? there's a guy on ebay selling a black ds, and he says not all the games will work on it (his source is some friend of his who's worked in game STORES for 10 years...)
any truth to this? my friend really wants a black one, and she'll get it from ebay as long as she knows her games will work with it. - leftfoot, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Yeah, I realised that after I posted, I feel dumb.
- colonelpanic, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2yeah, I gave up after the original GBA and how horrible it was. I had to double the weight of it with a battery pack and a light. Same with my GBC and original. They may have fixed that, but I don't like buying a new game boy every 6 months so I can play new games. People complain abotu new iPods coming out, at least the old ones can play new music still.
- sam10685, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1import it from Europe. that's what i'm doing.
- MikeCampo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2@Nosuccess
I haven't seen one up close yet...I only assumed from some pictures I've seen. Oh well, it would have been nice. - Nocturnal, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Not diggin the matte finish on the inside. Otherwise, wonderful design and a damn bright display(s).
- dimatt, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3"*****. WHy don't you go change your clothes, too It clashes with your iPod."
Wow man, go take a rage dump or something.
Anyways, i do like the colour (or shade :p). I hope Nintendo as well releases in both white and black for the Wii too. - Kriz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2What I want to know is, when are we getting the Enamel Navy DS Lite here in the west?
- subscribtion, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It does kinda look like the monolith.
