Out of boredom, I was looking at the Japanese Nintendo site, and discovered that they have 2 other colours of DS unavailable to us (I thought they probably would...) As seen in the attachment, is dark and light blue...

I so wish they brought these over! I bet you those colour choices would be even more popular than the others. As far as I've seen with working in Home Ent. and seeing in other stores, the pink ones go fast. Probably because they're different. Heck, I own one because I wanted mine to be girly^^ Black is the next popular, and at the bottom is white, maybe because it's just too plain?

Either way, if we had these options to pick from before I got my DS, I would definately have bought the light blue. It just looks pretty^^ Or even better, if they had mint green that would be... very nice^^

I got the red DS before the Lite models came out. If I had the choice, I probably would have gotten the white colored DS Lite. It just looks sleeker than the others to me.

Oooh, the light blue one is pretty. :D Maybe, by the time I actually have enough money to buy one, those colors will have been released here already. XD But yeah, mint green sounds like a good color, too. :D

You could always paint one. Be careful to cover ports and things with tape, however. I imagine there are sites for DS modders that would have good instructions.

Same here. I got the metallic blue DS before the DS lites come out. ^_^ It was a hard choice to choose between the blue and the pink... but in the end I chose blue. And I love it! :jump:

It would be quite unwise of them to NOT bring these colors over. They could make more money if they did. I'd like the light blue one too.

I kind of like the dark blue one, but I wouldn't want to buy another DS. ^_^"
So annoying that the new version came out so quickly after the old one. >_<

That sounds like a really bad idea to me.

Personally, I'm happy with my red one...

I actually want a white one so I can make some decals and have it look supah stylish.

But the light blue is really nice, too. ;3;

I got tired of the white color DS lite and decided that I wanted one that was red and white. So I bought some red electrical tape (it peels cleanly off of smooth surfaces like the DS) and grabbed a razor blade. Vuala! Red and white DS lite. It actually came out looking pretty decent.

I'll put up a better pic along with some side veiws once I get my hands on a real camera. (as long as people are interested)
