Gaming Who still has an Original DS?

[sjones900]

I have the same as you (sjones900)

It's the best one!

I still have mine, original silver. Perfect condition. Bought it a week after launch day for 25 bucks off some guy outside a pawnshop. I also have my ds lite, dsi, and dsi xl. Still have yet to get a 3ds but i will when more good stuff comes out for it.

Also to those that have a Blue DS phat, you can do a firmware hack that will allow a brighter screen, about as bright as ds lite.

Only with some motherboard models. Mine is not one of them... I've already tried. lol

I have one from the day of release, a silver one. Still works perfectly and i still game on it.

 

[dimmidice]

mine! had to replace the case though. dropped it when it was open from a meter high onto concrete. not a scratch on it. dropped my backpack with the closed ds in it from 30 cm high. hinge broken lol.

[nico445]

still have mine... works great. pretty scratched up though. does anybody know how the dx replacement cases are? might change it ...

 

[Janthran]

I have mine right here. The screen cover for the top was scratched so it doesn't even have that, the hinge is broken (It has since I bought it used.. Meh.) and after getting my 3DS I let my older brother play it..
Long story short, he left the charger at our friends' house in a different state.

Still have my launch DS, here's the picture.

 

[katw83]

I still have mine that my ex went and bought on launch day for me when I was ill. The hinge is cracked but it still works perfectly

I have two. The first its the Mario Kart Red one, I played the hell out of it for like 3 years, the areas around the buttons are pale 'cause of it xD unfortunately, the upper screen has some issues and it shows some blue color. Other than that it is in good condition and can be used to play gba games. I also have the Electric blue, and I still use it to this day. These are really durable handhelds.

I'm planning to get a lite eventually. I can't live without the gba slot

My Old DS is still in Great Condition, the Battery may need replacing but besides that its all good

 

[VashTS]

yup still got my old blue one. i had a silver one when it came out, but i sold it on ebay. then i got the blue one about a year later.

still works great, although the touch screen has a big scratch blotch in the middle. still works great though. that scratch came from starfox. i loved that game.

i used to have to leave about 3 hours early for work, between my ds and my cheap mp3 player ipod clone got me through some tough times of boredom.

Weird, I've played the crap out of Pokémon Ranger and it didn't scratch my screen.

 

[Izham]

Ah yes, my phat. Still in working condition i guess. Handed it down to my lil' bro who's still using it xD
I've moved on though, using a 3DS now :3

 

[DinohScene]

DSPhat.

Has alot of wear and tear on the shell itself.
Buttons however still work perfectly.

I mainly use it as my MP3 player.

 

[The_Hulkster]

My silver DS Phat is still working perfectly.
Some scratches on the body though but hey, it shows a bit of history and character

Haven't bought a replacement for my phat either. Nor have I bought a newer model.

 

[RPG Hacker]

Also still got a DS Phat. It originally had a silver shell, but it broke and I replaced it with a dark blue one. This one, however, broke again (the connection between top and bottom part broke off) and additionally the top screen doesn't work correctly now. I have to fiddle around with the top part to get the top screen to display anything. It's pretty sucky, but I guess I won't be needing it much, anyways. If I ever need to play a GBA game again I'll probably get a GBA SP on Ebay.

Also had a DSi, but I was pissed by the shoulder buttons always breaking and didn't feel like sending it to Nintendo a fourth time. Therefore I tried to fix the problem myself and instead broke the thing completely. So now all I have is my 3DS.

I've beaten the crap out of my DSL when I bought it in 2008 (had played a friends DS till then). After all I bought a DSiXL in the beginning of 2011 and now have a limited Zelda 3DS ordered. Somehow skipped the GBA generation handhelds (though played quite a few games on my DSL, partially thanks to the 3in1 when some games were just lost in regards of buying them), but the DS and the future 3DS is quite there.

 

[ferofax]

I still have mine. It used to be Teal, but use and the eventual wear and tear forced me to overhaul it. Now it's sporting a dirty silver case, replaced bottom screen, pretty banged up battery.

Top and bottom screen has stuck rows of black pixels, but other than those flaws, it's running perfectly.

 

[Demonbart]

I do, though my touch screen is completely f-ed up
