I bought a Cosmo Black 3DS back in early June and neither the circle pad nor bottom screen scratches my 3DS, however after being close for a long time or being in my travel case, the bottom screen edge will leave a slight line of dust/dirt and a smudge that looks similar to a scratch on my top screen but it comes off when I wipe the screen with my cleaning cloth. Nintendo really needs to put a stronger hinge and better bumpers on the screen though, as doing those two things would prevent this problem entirely.

This is big news apparently??

What a non-story. Slow news day I guess.

nope, pat is just doing what he always does...makes news out of nothing.

" and Nintendo's a company historically known for being pretty easy to deal with when it comes to replacing devices."
 
False, when my DS lite's hinge broke they wanted $70 to fix it. Everyone claimed Nintendo was fixing them for free.
Instead, I got a replacement shell for $10 off ebay.

This is something we needed to know? That for a few hours you couldn't buy black 3dS's from Amazon, that is news worthy? 

Joystiq offers enough "news" for I.

O.o Why is this important?

But are games art?

What is truly art?

Why would anyone want to buy any color 3DS?  There's nothing out there, unless you're that desperate to buy N64 ports.

The same reason your parents opted not to abort you. Even there's idiots around the planet already, they wanted one of their own.

Wow.  Did you REALLY have to take it to such a personal level?

he mad

Did someone drop a box of them or something?

And now Amazon is letting you pre-order the price drop. I'd say all's forgiven. ;)

@YukoAsho:  I've never seen someone use the fact that someone was NOT aborted as an insult.. haha  Seems like a win to me, being born and all..
