It's pretty impressive how such high quality graphics, sound and all the touch-screen code and stuff can fit onto a swish little cart like the DS ones.

A handheld with surround sound. Who'da thunk it?

That's one of the most retarded things I've seen posted in a while.

Seriously though...

I brought it from ebay with mario DS, which i'm quite dissapointed with.

the DS is fantastic, when I throw it at the birds, I get very good length due to it's weight, scaring them off with at least two throws, sometimes even one!!

The game isn't so good, it just doesn't seem to go so far and when it does the birds are not that scared of it, I think it's because it's too small.
That and the price, 175 quid for a bird scarer? I could get one cheaper, but not when it comes with a nice box.

it comes with a cable, I dont know what that is though, I think it may be some kind of lassoo

I had to send mine back for the firmware upgrade, a weeks wait but worth it, not only hard backs, bit a new 'stop a wobbily table from wobbiling by putting DS under said wobbily table leg'

i didn't relise it had doorstop technology is it version 2.0 of it? (works on wooden surfaces) or is it the basic 1.0 version just good for carpet. i heard it could just be a rumor but it can work as a book end as well works better on paperbacks but can handle some hardbacks.
