trying to buy Nintendo DS

just4kickz · 01-16-2007, 04:14 PM

Anybody know of any stores I can go to or places online that sell the DS? I've looked online at gamestop/ebworld, target, and toys'r'us and none of them are in stock. I've also called several storeas... about 25 of them to see if they had any--all sold out. Ebay, of course, has some but I don't really want to bid for something that could go for 30$ above retail... and I don't have time to hawk over these things. I've also looked at amazon which apparently has some? I don't know if they're in stock but the Black Onyx one I want is selling for 170$ which is already 30$ more than the retail...

any suggestions?

just4kickz · 01-16-2007, 09:14 PM

leeJ · 01-16-2007, 10:23 PM

why is the ds so popular all of the sudden?

just4kickz · 01-16-2007, 10:26 PM

MB330 · 01-16-2007, 10:53 PM

krndanic307 · 01-16-2007, 10:55 PM

360! is for me im trying to get a DS for my girlfriend.

i think they'll be in stock within this week or it has already been...

obLu · 01-17-2007, 04:32 PM

I bought one just to play super mario ds, and the other "mario" games. Once I beat that though, I pretty just just put it down and it's just collecting dust.

All the DS game creators seem to have this problem with the concept of game-and-go. They want you to sit through 15min anime movies to explain the backstory of their crappy game.

I'd never condone piracy, but they've got some interesting hacks for the DS that are kind of cool.

SES_D · 01-17-2007, 05:06 PM

damn I KNEW i should've posted here. I bought 6 from Target (the guy didn't know what the limit was) like a week from New Years...and sold them all on ebay! THE DS's are still hard to find?!??!?!? Your kidding right.

Your best bet would be Target....forget EBGAMES or Gamestop they NEVERRR get shipment unless you find a mall store with some.

just4kickz · 01-17-2007, 08:37 PM

just bought one from ebay... haha so tired of bidding... decided to buy it now for 160shipped... which is probably like 20+ but oh well.
