Trying to push the extended warranty purchases at Gamestop aren't you? I bought an original DS (phat) at Gamestop back in college days. I took it home and right out of the box I noticed the bottom touch screen was damaged. I only went back to Gamestop because I was on the phone with Nintendo rep telling them that I just purchased the system and it was damaged out of the box (I lived across the street from a Gamestop so I was able to walk over there while still on the phone). I had the employee tell them that I just bought the system there and eventually I was able to send the system back to Nintendo for a free replacement. The Gamestop employee told me if I had purchased the warranty under Gamestop then it would have been used and voided with the return. So basically it would have been worthless for my situation besides not having to wait for Nintendo to ship me another DS.
An extended warranty can be useful sometimes. However, extended warranty is usually just another way for department stores to make more money. I purchased a 3 year warranty on my new TV after my old LCD died a little over a year (apparently the TV was dropped and had a cracked power board along with damage to another board, should have known something was going to happen after the first was DOA; I bet the UPS guys threw the TVs around a lot during the holiday season).
