Wet DS action

From the utter randomness file -- someone really, really wants us to believe that those DS lunchbags work as promised. For those of you who frequently float your expensive electronics around in the tub, this is surely a revelation. We can't argue the inherent fun in playing a little DS in the tub, but those pictures make us cringe. The destructive possibilities are painful.

If the DS floats, like bread, apples, and very small rocks, does that make it a witch? Apparently that other handheld is cleared, as it sinks like the proverbial stone.

No, I don't think it weighs the same as a duck.

i play tetris in the shower with a large ziplock bag over it... i found that brain age or anything else that uses a mic doesn't work well... it is hard to shout "OBJECTION!" over the sound of falling water... now if i had a waterproof headset/mic that would be great...

this is also a good item for anyone who goes so broke buying stuff for their DS that they now are homeless but atleast they still have a DS to play. I gave change to a guy last week... not because i thought it was sad to see him sitting by the onramp but because it was so sad to see his Nintendog Dalmation next to him practically starved... poor thing.

it float's?
the one thing i thought the DS could never do was float, i was wrong. I don't hink it floats it's just the zip bag that has air in it (i hope).

The huy who invented that has way too much time on his hands, and way too much money. probably.

Well this has just proved that this technoligy should be burned. To you Alisha Karabinus will you join me in Camelot amonst the Knights of The round table? Now how addicted would you be if you needed to play in the shower? It atleast keeps addicts clean. :)
