It's called the Noble Pink, and Nintendo will be unleashing it upon an unsuspecting (and overwhelmingly girly) population come 20 July 2006. We're not entirely convinced that pink is indeed a noble color, but we've heard that it sits well with royalty. Queens totally dig it.
Clarification: We jest. Being in possession of a pink, electronic handheld device does not indicate anything with regards to sexual orientation or manly vigor.
Capitulation: That was the final heavy-handed joke in this post.

You don't have to be gay to have a pink DS, but it helps ^_^. I get this all the time:
Why do you have the pink one?
It was a gift. My brother ordered it from Japan.
Does he hate you?
I asked for it.
I can't see giving it up for anything that wasn't as pink, if not pinker. Yay pink DS Lite! It indeed does take a "noble" man to stand up to the criticism and stares.

I've got a pink iPod Mini, and I don't think anything of it. Pinks just a colour (that looks like strawberry milk!) and I'm comfortable enough in my sexuality to appreciate that colour.

Dammit, just yesterday I told my sister I'd buy her a DS Lite if they came out in pink, at the same time praying that they wouldn't.

I usually really like the blog. Please don't suddenly go all Adult Swim and get homophobic and mean-spirited.

I'm a huge fag and own nothing pink. I like white...I like my white DS Lite since it matches my white MacBook. Fags love coordinating colors.
