Until...

Thankfully they let me pay for this week's games at a separate cash register.

Wario64 · Jul 20, 2006

Wow. There are guys lining up for a pink DS Lite...

Fuzzy · Jul 20, 2006

DSlite take over Japan Volume 132?

Odysseus · Jul 20, 2006

Japanese

non

gamers will line up for anything.*

*except the 360

Archie · Jul 20, 2006

Huge lines for a new color? Dayum.

Link · Jul 20, 2006

Crazy. Just crazy.

MrDaravon · Jul 20, 2006

Have they said if this is going to be a limited edition type thing, or an available color from now on?

Anyway, mine should be shipping shortly here, I'll post pics when it gets here assuming no one else has by then.

Rushmore · Jul 20, 2006

WTF? I know the DSL is popular in Japan and all but this can't be real.

HomShaBom · Jul 20, 2006

It prints money.

mj1108 · Jul 20, 2006

Just wait until the Pokemon colors. :lol :lol

RIOTS!

It's beyond popular. It's at a level of icon status that only games hit.

It's selling at a crazy rate, now at 20weeks in a row with 100,000+ sales.

Thats just ****ing stupid crazy. I've been watching sales charts for a long time now, and I have NEVER seen anything like this in any region ever.

Those line for a damn color are just assinine. What would happen if they released a chrome DS? I just dont get it at all.

Skilotonn · Jul 20, 2006

All this for a colour... pink no less...

Nintendo really, really knows how to cater to their own people, and take them for what they got...

Yup, the Pokemon DSLite release will probably be a national holiday...

cvxfreak · Jul 20, 2006

THERE ARE MALES IN THAT LINE

WTF

It's cool either way.

The Guys might want DSL's for their Girlfriends, Wiives, Daughters, Mothers etc.

Japan is DS Land:lol

sc0la · Jul 20, 2006

I thought all men liked pink DSLs? *rimshot*

bjork · Jul 20, 2006

oh shit, pink!

I need this to replace my dark blue one

Neko Tsukimi · Jul 20, 2006

I remembered the pink DS lite launching today... Everytime I look at the date on a calendar, I see a heart around the date even though I didn't even mark the date.

But now it has turned into a broken heart 'cos I'm as poor as poor can be and won't be able to pick up one for a while. It's prolly a good thing though just as long as the color doesn't become mad hard to find by the time I'm in a position to buy XD

Cooking game + pink DSL? Nintendo is sexist!

mutsu · Jul 20, 2006

Lyte Edge · Jul 20, 2006

HOLY CRAP, I wonder if the game stores here will even have ANY pink DS Lites today.

Not much out this week worth getting; I'm picking up Fatal Fury Collection and Bleach HTS3 today.

Next week is a ton of new games.

Geez

Aruarian Reflection · Jul 20, 2006

Well, DSLites are still tough to find in Japan, right? So it's not that they're lining up to get a pink color DSLite. They just want any DSLite, color be damned.

Razoric · Jul 20, 2006

Play-Asia.com changed my order status to "preparing order".... what are the chances that they'll actually ship me one tomorrow? (its for my girlfriend douches)

wonderfuldays · Jul 20, 2006

Same here, and that's what my status is showing, but it's been showing that for about a day. I preordered it there literally within an hour or two of it going up on their site, so I can't imagine I wouldn't get in on the first shipment, but I dunno...
