funny story for me. I wanted a PSP for Christmas and my mum told me not to get my hopes up cause they where meant to be out of stock right. them i though to my self " you know what im not going to listen to here im not gunna wait she is stupid" so i changed my mind and wanted a ds lite. a black one cause i saw lots of them in pc world. 2 days after Christmas we went to get my ds expecting there to be millions of them and guess what i see when i get in there. about 50 PSP waiting there for me. so i waited in till the 7th January so i could get one :doom:. im glade i got the ds now.

Short version? I needed a handheld system, since my GBA was always faulty from day one and I didn't want to carry the brick of an original Gameboy around with me anymore. It was time for an upgrade. I've always been most loyal to Nintendo when it comes to my gaming, and I have no regrets. :( Best games out there! Not to mention, the pricerange of the DS games are better than the PSP alternative, I've found.

I was getting frustrated with NDS Emulation. The MAIN reason was that I wanted to play Trauma Center 2 and i didn't actually play it till like 8 months after I bought my DS and M3 and ended up not liking it.

Long bus rides with all the sports I do. Most people had a DS along with some good multi-player games like Mario Kart, so it was just a fun way to hang out and have fun on the road.

I bought a DS cause I really liked the touch screen for homebrew apps makes for a great organizer. More importantly though cause I'm a big Nintendo fan just couldn't pass up on their best portable yet.

I had to buy cos the kids wanted it for X-Mas. But not only the kids are playing (when they are at school, it's my turn, hehe).
