I would rather spend full price for it new from a store then $100 for it on ebay.

Yeah, they had some problems with some dead pixels so make sure to ask the seller about it if you buy it off ebay.

I have one dead pixel on my DS lite.

they're $129 canadian new, so $100 USD on ebay isn't a good deal at all

actually none of those even remotely appeal to me

brain age, the final fantasy games, and maybe metroid (the metroid using the stylus as a mouse for fps is amazing btw)

well

do the math?

100usd = $112 cdn or more

plus shipping

why pay basically full retail for something used? especially when it could be potentially fucked

They didn't appeal to me either at first but they are all pretty addicting, especially trauma center and kirby for the stylus use. If you haven't played them, rent them at least, maybe you'll like them.

And online mario cart >>

Must own DS items for me are:

1. Zelda: Phantom Hourglass - Not yet Released, but you just know...
2. Final Fantasy III - Not yet Released, same as #1.
3. Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time
4. New Super Mario Bros.
5. Brain Age
6. Animal Crossing
7. Free Opera Web Browser - By end of Year '06.

Oh and Tikker, you should buy the upcoming pink one. It's perfect for you metrosexual Canadians! :wink:
