The black Nintendo DS Lite

As you might or might not know, me and my sister own one of almost every type of GameBoy ever made. The only models I don’t have are the Gameboy Pocket (slimmer version of the original GameBoy) and, up until today, the DS. I hadn’t bought the original DS, mainly because I was very happy with my GBA (that’s Advance for you non-gamers) and because DS didn’t have any interesting titles back when it was first released. When I heard about the redesigned DS, named DS Lite – not very original, I know – I was very intigued.

Some months went by and the Lite is, as of today, also available in my country. Europeans get to choose between two versions of the DS, a black and a white one, that are otherwise completely identical in technical specifications. The only one in stock was, thankfully, the black one and that’s the one I got.
