21. Is there anything about the lite that is not as good as you'd hoped/as the DS phat?

22. With the original DS, I've dropped it countless times (which is the reason I don't have a PSP). I wanna know if when you drop it if it is still sturdy Although, I think it'll remain intact. I've never seen a Nintendo system break from any normal hight drop. (but maybe because they took the Nintendo logo off it'll lose its magical unbreakable powers!)

23. I want to know if after playing Metroid Prime Hunters for only half an hour against 2 of your friends, if the L Button will go out. I know mine did, and that's why I need a DS Lite.

24. What are the positives/negatives of buying a Japanese Lite? If the US release date isn't next month, I'll have to import.

25. so far from my experiences, the L button will work fine after long playing session of hunters but I've only had it a few weeks.

Dropping: I've dropped my DS lite, twice from about chest height onto both carpet and linolium and there weren't any cracks or bad reprocussions.

I bought my DS lite for $225 on Ebay but I've seen some since listed for cheaper using Buy It Now, just look around. The negative of importing is that Nintendo of America probably won't support it should you ever have to send it in for repair.

As for misc notes, inside edge of the DS is kind of sharp and can begin to cut into your hand if you hold it right.

26. I would like to know how visible scratches are on the white and navy versions before the US release.

27. are there any changes to the durability of the touch screen to withstand scratches? I dont know how you are going to test this one without actually scratching yur DS Lite, but you can think of something. The phat DS scratches very easily, maybe because of the screen itself or because of the stylus, so does the DS Lite have any changes regarding these two things?

28. I want to know if it's more comfortable to play
Metroid Prime Hunters on the DS Lite, or if you still get hand cramps from playing.

31. Cheese and rice Nintendo! When you go to the nintendods.com official website, Nintendo used a picture of a DS Lite instead of a phat DS in the banner that promotes DS Download Stations. If I lived under a rock and didn't know what a DS Lite was, I'd be all like "Why doesn't mine look like that...?" Yes, that's what I would be like.
