Got a DS Phat with Super Mario 64 DS the first Christmas it was available. The DS and I never got along very well, as starting out with a N64 port made me think it would be the 2nd coming of the N64...which of course it never was. So to me, the DS was one disappointment after another and so I never bothered upgrading to a different iteration and only wound up with about a dozen games after 8 years. I probably spent more time playing GBA games on my DS than I ever spent playing actual DS games.

Thank God for 3DS, and 3DS XL specifically. THAT thing has already become my favorite system (console OR handheld) ever! It IS the 2nd coming of the N64...except with Gamecube quality graphics. Yes, please! 22 games and counting! :D

Back to the OP: Good-bye, DS. I won't really miss you, but I know there are many that will remember you fondly.
