Jayenkai	Created : 10 December 2007 Life without a DS ARGH!?!?!
(Yes, my camera sucks) Haven't been into town yet, but I'm going to assume that since it's Xmas, it's going to be a complete arse of a time trying to pick up a new DS. Bloody typical. And so begins my first week of DS-less-ness. If I have no luck before Xmas then it'll be a mad January Sales rush for me. I might even try getting the local Gamestation to hold one for me. It's not that the DS is knackered, mind. It does indeed still work as it should, it's just that whenever you try holding it, the top-half flops and flaps around like it desperately wants to pop off. It's not nice to see it that way, so I've tried to avoid using it. ATM I'm wondering what crazy things I could do with a spare LCD screen and a touchscreen. So far, not coming up with too much, to be honest! sigh Aw well. So, I'll call it a day with the whole Platdude Retro Collection for now. I'd already planned to have a bit of time away from it, and this is as good a way of making me do that, that the DS could've come up with! Next project, no idea... I suppose I could do with doing a Xmassy game for the challenge. Maybe wrap it into a DS game like Spinal, so that I too can enter that Drunken Coder's compo (Yeah, I knew what you were up to!!) Hmm.. Yup. I should go do that. .. Think Xmas!

Jayenkai	Xmas = Snow.. Snow = White.. White = Gabby Gabby's about to star in her second Xmas game! Hurray for Gabby! Note 100% sure what the game'll be, but I like the logo

power mousey	Sorry for the loss of life. Nintendo DS Life. hopefully, you will have no trouble getting another one. Even in the midst of the Christmas shopping rush and frenzy. In the meantime, check this out. It could be a good replacement or a temporarily toy before you get your new Nintendo DS: www.survivormall.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=364 cheers Jay and happy shopping at the Survivor Mall.

Jayenkai	A radio? Haven't listened to proper radio in years! Who needs that when you've got Podcasts!

spinal	I feel for you jay, no idea what I'd do without my ds, emus just aren't good enough to run some homebrew, especially the state mine ends up. Good luck with finding a new one, although it shouldn't be a problem. \|edit\| I can hardly read the text on your avbar, light gray on white? huh?

shroom_monk	Ouch... poor DS... and it's gonna be pretty tricky to get another before xmas - I read somewhere that Nintendo are struggling to meet demand...

power mousey	well, maybe certain people are not looking well enough in the right places. I was over at Walmart 2 days ago and there were 8 Nintendo DS left. I could've bought one right then and there. But I held off for a few other things.
