    Nintendo DS

    Platform »

    The Nintendo DS is a handheld featuring two screens, one of which is a resistive touchscreen. Four different models are available: the original DS, the DS Lite, the DSi, the DSi XL.

    I just scored a DS, but what is the edition called?

    I have this DS that I got from my sister who found it in a computer lab. No one claimed it at the lost and found so she gave it to me. It's all black and has two pokemon on the front, one pokemon is gold and one is silver and they're both sparkly. 
     
    Anyone know what type of DS this is? I couldn't find it on Amazon.

    @Snail: It was a high school and If someone had a DS this sweet, I have no idea why they wouldn't claim it. Unless my sister lied to me and didn't even put it in the Lost and Found

    @xyzygy:  Dayum!  Your sis probably wouldn't have given it to you if she knew it was this rare...  You should sell that and get something you actually want.  Or, if you want a DS, sell it and buy a DSi or something.

    @FluxWaveZ: I might wait and see if they'll become more expensive in the future. Besides, I've always wanted my own DS. I don't know what I'll do about it right now, I might sell it... hmm.

    You lucky bastard.  You need to do some charity work though, just to balance the Karma Universe.  If movies have taught me anything, they have taught me that bad things will happen to you unless you achieve that balance  :-)

    Sell it and get a DSi if you want a DS so bad. That will definitely get you enough cash to buy one and 1 or 20 games.

    Wow, I have no idea why the owner didn't claim it, if I had lost it I would have gone into a complete panic. But congrats man, you have got yourself a new DS.

    But I dont't want a DSI, I want to have backwards compatibility with GBA games.

    Then you could sell it and get a DS Lite (though personally I prefare the original) or you get an an XL and a GBA SP for that price and still have lots left over for buying DS (or other console) games.

    If you look at that amazon page you can get a new one for 150, used ones sell for about 100... so i don't know why you think its worth 600 bucks just because one dumb seller decided to list a new one that high. Just keep it.
     
    However grats on your free DS. My Dad works for American Airlines and has gotten me many free iPods, my PSP and my sister a DS Lite. So I know how getting free electronics feels :p
