The white DS looks very sleak and nice, almost up to par with the PSP's glossy design.

Yeah.... definitely would go with importing a color. The black and grey is just the ugliest color scheme the DS has.

The white makes the DS look sexy.

Well I would've gone out and said that (I did...) but He was contemplating about a DS and I didn't want to come off as a Fanboy.

So since you came out first...

Cany... you should definitely spring for a PSP and get Lumines and Mercury.

the color is probably worth it... that is awesome. the metroid prime demo is awesome, but short... you'll play it a few times, but you'll be fine without it

I bought a DS first then a PSP, but if I could only have one I'd pick the PSP. I didn't realize how high it scored on the awesome meter.

Anyway white sucks - it would show dirt way too easily.

The irony in that statement is so funny.

Considering a color DS w/ a case would be worth $235, as opposed to the PSP with it's extras costing $250...

I now realize any bashing of Sony's $250 price point is totally irrelevant now...

I mean, honestly Cany, if your willing to shell out $235 for a DS (mind you with no Metroid demo) and a case.... then you might as well pick up the better machine in PSP value pack.

Suddenly I had this relevation that I don't want a DS. I don't need it, there's only 1 game that I would like to check out.
It's pretty much money.

I'd like to buy something that my girl likes as well, like a music CD of M2M (best of).

Yeah you shouldn't shell out money if all you want is one game. Be it DS or PSP.

If it was 1 year ago, I'd already have it. Right now I'm just too busy with other things...
I better get my kicks from my AGB, GCN and PC. When talking about games of course.

So eh..... forget this thread. But thanks for the help...
