I got a DS for cheep

[Gabriel]

Hey. I got a Nintendo DS. I paid a whopping $20. Actually, I paid $20 and a Burger King value meal. I got a near pristine boxed system with all inserts and accessories.

You sure can tell a story.

 

You wanna be a little more specific. Maybe tell us how this came to be, and why it involved a Burger King Value meal.

Well, I can beat you - I paid 37 cents for my DS.

 

But my story didn't involve Burker King food, so I'm intrigued.

I got one for a single french fry and a ball of lint.

 

 

No, not really. Let's hear the BK tale.

Well, the post was longer, but I edited all the system war flamey bits out.

 

My DS owning friend decided he no longer wanted it. He asked me to make an offer for it, since I'm a videogame fiend. I offered $20, soley because it has a nice screen to play GBA games on, not because I really wanted one right now.

 

Then there was some good natured ribbing about how he was a dumbass for buying it and also that I had to be a bigger dumbass for buying a 32X when it was new, etc, etc.

 

Finally, he decided he'd rather have $20 than the DS. He was also short on cash and wanted a burger, so I bought him something at BK.

 

So, I'm set for if Advance Wars DS ever comes out. Until then, it's a great little thing to play Namco Museum on.

Nice story - stupid friend - but nice story!

 

You should at least think about picking up something for the DS - I have Mario, Feel the Magic, and Zoo Keeper (which I just got for 20 bucks) and they are all really good. But you're right, for GBA games the picture quality is amazing, I love playing the Konami Arcade on it.

 

Cheap DS's are great - mine was 37 cents, the stamp I used to mail my voucher in from one of those freecrap.com websites!

I'll have to pull that one out of the box. It's been a while since I played Gyruss or Time Pilot.

"Can I have fries with that?"

"Well, it depends. Are you gonna give me your XBox, too?"
