Mmm, Pocket Gaming

The DS Lite is due out June 11th which means it's time to get your game on. [If you haven't already that is.]

I have put off picking up a DS for a few reasons: (1) I hoped the PSP would turn out to be awesome and have some kick ass games, so I bought it instead; (2) I didn't think the dual screen thing would work; and (3) I bought a Gameboy Advance SP the year before and only played my original copy of Gameboy Tetris. [And I do mean, lil green screen Gameboy brick Gameboy] If Nintendo hadn't come out with any games for the Advance, they couldn't possibly come out with any games that I'd want to play on the DS.

I was wrong. I can admit to making mistakes where the DS was concerned, but I also learned from my mistake. I decided to wait for the 2nd rev of the system before buying one. I had to wait for Nintendo to fix some of the backlight and battery issues. Judging by the things I've read on Joystiq and Engadget those things have been improved. Add the fact that the New Super Mario Bros. game is available for the DS [along with a couple of other games like Nintendogs and that damn Animal Crossing one]

So if you were holding off on getting a DS, I say hold off no longer. Go out and spend you some money on June 11th. At $129 bucks, you might as well. What else were you going to do? Plant that money and try to grow you a PS3 money tree? Didn't thinks so.
