Yeah on NSMB I had the same problem, blowing on the Yoshi game. I blew too hard and nothing happened. You do have to blow lighter. I don't know why.

Works like a charm for me every time.
We need to battle Mott, as opposed to racing.
Should be an eveen playing field if I can blow my balloons up and you can't.
Beats getting smoked in vs mode. :P

lol.

I'm still considering the DS Lite, although i think i'm definately going to hang out for a different colour.

Check this out.

I was having a problem with my new DS lite shutting off abruptly. (It only seems to happen with the new SMB, but that's besides the point). Since all the stores were out of the DSLite, I decided to call nintendo rather than wait for the stores to get it back in to exchange it for defective.

They sent me a brand new one via UPS, three day shipping. Pretty nifty. Now of course I have to send the old one back to avoid being charged for the replacement, but they give me 21 days to do it, so for like two weeks, I have two DS Lites, which is killer. Jen and I have been playing tetris, Brain games, and Mario all via DS Download. It's pretty cool.

What occured to me also is, if you own a DS Lite, and wanted another DS lite for a friend or something, you could call nintendo and say yours is broken, they'd send you another one like they did for me, and instead of paying the 129.99 plus tax, you only would pay 115$ (what they would charge me if i don't send the "damaged" one back). Plus if all the stores are out of it, like they are right now, you wouldn't have to wait.

Anyways, that's my story.

I would feel a bit bad about doing that just because Nintendo is nice enough to send one out of good faith that we would resend ours. 😊

Sony on the other hand required I send them my PS2, which came back 2 weeks later with missing parts, in which, instead of just sending me the parts, had me send in my PS2 again for another 2 weeks. How lame.

But I digress, white looks sleek. :thumbsup: Black too. Heck, the DS Lite looks sleek, I think almost any color would look awesome on it.

Anyway, time to gloat - we in Europe get a black DS lite.

If you know the right people, anyone and thier sister can get one off the hong kong black market.

Apparantely Nintendo released a press statement saying that it was, in fact, White Lites that went missing.

I picked up DS Lite this week and the screen quality is amazing. Hard to go back to a GBA SP now.

The only problem I have is there seems to be more motion blurring than the old DS had. I've tested the same games on my DS Lite, DS, and GBA SP, and the DS Lite has the worst blurring.

Wow, I just got a package today from Nintendo sent to my work place, addressed to me. Open it up, and its a Nintendo DS Lite. A free DS Lite. Now I have two. 😊 (Plus my old one makes 3)
