Re: pics of the new dsi
I've owned a DS (And a DS Lite) several times before and was meaning to get a DSi when it came out via the $70 bonus credit on it when I traded-in my DS Lite, but I ran into some money troubles and had to cancel my order thus being left DS-less.jfe2 wrote:Do it!

Anyhow I don't do flash cards, I'm VERY against piracy of an existing and or in production system. Unless it's old and not easily accessible (Sega CD, extremely expensive imports etc...) I own the real deal.

Re: pics of the new dsi
So don't put any DS stuff on it. I have an R4 and only have 16 and 8 bit stuff on there, no GBA or later. Heck, I own a lot of the games that I end up playing off of it. Ones I don't are probably on my want list.Mod_Man_Extreme wrote: Anyhow I don't do flash cards, I'm VERY against piracy of an existing and or in production system.

Re: pics of the new dsi
Yeah same here. I really only use my CycloDS for stuff that I already own on the NES or Genesis. It's just nice to be able to play them on a portable.Hobie-wan wrote:So don't put any DS stuff on it.

Re: pics of the new dsi
Agreed, but I've got Nomads and portable Famiclones for that. I'm one of those guys that will use original official or clone hardware until they can't find any more.jfe2 wrote:Yeah same here.

Re: pics of the new dsi
I reserved mine at a local game store. The funny thing they asked is "Would you like to trade in your DS system for credit towards the new one?"
I just said "No". Then as I walked out the store, it hit me. These people assumed I already own a DS. They were right, but that is the mentality in Japan I guess. If you don't own a DS, you are out of the loop.
