  The original DS feels like a prototype that somehow ended up on retail shelves

  One of the big reasons why the GBA slot was removed was due to the lack of security on the GBA cartridge slot. It was SO easy to use flash carts for the DS GBA slot and pirate games on the go.

  the ds lite has nice mushy buttons, the dsi has lovely screens, the dsi xl has the big screen, and the 2004 ds certainly exists

  I lowkey love the original, chunky DS. I got it for my birthday the year after it came out. I got a silver one with the Metroid Prime Hunters demo, but when I opened it, the entire top screen was smashed and blacked out. My parents brought it back to Walmart and the guy working upgraded me to the red Mario Kart DS bundle for no extra charge because it was the only one they had in stock that day. <br><br>The Lite is probably objectively better, but something about how early 00s-futuristic the original DS looked, how substantial it felt in the hands, it just hit different.

  You want an uncomfortably uncanny experience? Play Pokémon Black 2 or White 2 on the original DS model. The uncanny part is that it actually works, but it feels like it shouldn&apos;t.

  Worth noting that the DSi XL is the only DS model that has IPS screens! So not only are the screens bigger, but they’re literally better quality as well, with less ghosting and better viewing angles. That’s the main reason I play all my DS games on the DSi XL

  You know if Nintendo released GBA games on the DSi Shop than people would complain that they were removing the GBA slot to force people to buy them digitally

  When I was a child I was playing Pokémon on my original Nintendo DS and my dad told me to take out the garbage. I heard something drop in the garage when I went to take it out, but I didn’t see anything so I went about my business. Not only did I drop my ds, but it landed perfectly under the tires of his car, and we only found it AFTER he left for work. Rip to my flattened OG blue DS
