I bought mine after all of the best games came out; Mario Kart, animal crossing, and other stuff. Also, lots of my friends had it to.

I bought a ds because for it's small size nothing else can touch it for games support, old and new.

Because the one that I bought was used, and actually at a fairly good price.Also, Mario Kart and the Mario platformers, backward compatability with GBA games, no region-encoded lockdown, and the eventual promise of a certain monster catching game sealed the deal.

Well, it was between the DS and the PSP. After weighing the pro's and con's of each handheld, I felt the DS was just the better handheld. Better battery life, more practical design (clamshell), smaller, and also the fact that I could look forward to the quality in Nintendo franchise games... made it a no-brainer over the PSP.

I bought the DS because I've been a Nintendo Fan for 14 years. (That's all there is to it.)

I actually got it when the Lite came out, I wanted to make sure that they got it down right. I was so envious of my friends pink DS, but now we all got white lites. America got screwed on the initial color choice IMO.
