Also, there are very rural places in Japan, like some parts of Shikkoku and Kyushiiu, so i assume some kids still dream of owning gba's and such.

hey me too! What games you gonna get?

*waits impatiently for Ouendan 2* :)

My DSlite broke after just over a month of having it.:(
It's a great machine with a great library of games, but it is a really flimsy piece of kit. The original ds is an ugly brick, but it's much more durable.
