Can you see the light...

or rather - Lite?


***lighting's bad; but will have to do for the time being***

The wait is finally over - and I now welcome the newest member in my electronics family - the Nintendo DS Lite - Not to be confused with the DS Thick/DS Phat (I picked up this funny name on the internet somewhere...kakaka). It's a semi-surprised birthday gift from my brother, but nonetheless a pleasant surprise because I can now diverge all my DS fund into DS Game fund. Hohohohoho~

Another surprise was that I got the console on Friday afternoon (took a break to go back home to check the UPS delivery), which is 2 days ahead of the official release date (Jun 11th). Though Nintendo probably wouldn't be very happy about Buy.com's speedy delivery, I can't really complaint. One guy in Target even asked me whether I imported the unit or not.

The games I bought so far are: New Super Mario Brothers, Bomberman (it's only 14.99 at Best Buy - can't pass it up) and Magnetica. Hopefully these will last me till the several RPGs that will be coming out later this year (Final Fantasy III, Zelda: Phantom Hourglass and Child of Mana. FF's Crystal Chronicles franchise should also have a game coming out for the DS as well, but i don't remember seeing a release date announced at E3). King Snort bought Brain Age - the hottest game in town. The game definitely looked interesting, and it's not too expensive either. I might pick it up, or it sequel (Big Brain Academy) later.

Several other friends from work already tried out the DS Lite - I'll see if I can get them to get the own....***evil grin*** And of course, I wouldn't say no if Nintendo offers to pay me commission.....Muahahahaha...

Next target - Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

***Darn it! Just realized that the Wii-mote is still the old version - need to find a more recent pic***
