Time Magazine recently gave the DS Lite its oh-so-coveted "Gadget of the Week" award, lauding the iPod-like design and Touch Generations series of games. Time Magazine seems to be the premier mainstream-gaming press outlet of late, also lauding the Wii in recent weeks as well.It's a bit silly, reading an article like this as a well-informed, knowledgable gamer, but pieces like this do wonders for a system's appeal outside of the established market. Before you know it, you might just be getting your backside handed to you by sweet ol' grandma in a game of Metroid Prime: Hunters.

Time Magazine slaps Apple on their cover everytime Steve Jobs sneezes. As an Apple fan, I love it. Hopefully Nintendo can start getting the same type of attention.

Yeah, those shoulder buttons really need to be on the back of the DS kind of like trigger buttons or something rather than on the "top" of the DS. It's a stretch to use the D-pad and reach up to press the 'L' shoulder button at the same time.
