With a gun?
No, but seriously, what kind of case set up do you have there? You can see this blogger's case above (got it at E3), and even one of our staff has their DS Lite insured (ask your agent). What about you guys? How is your beauty protected? Take a picture, describe it to us!

I have a crystal hard case that came with some sports slip ins too. every few months when it gets too scratched up, i replace the case, n everything stays beautiful.

I honestly use an old wool ski cap I have. For the games I just use the clear plastic cases that came with the old orginal Gameboy cartridges. You can fit four carts in each one.

I got one of those sock cases from Hori. Greatest case ever as long as you don't drop it.

Unprotected!
I never understood the point of getting a nice sleek piece of electronics and putting it in a big, ugly case.
It's like those leather cell phone holsters. Sure your new RAZR is well-protected, but it's huge and looks like crap. You might as well get a brick phone and throw it out if you drop it.

I got the same white ALS case at E3 and it's been just fine for me. Even if I'd paid $5 for it at the stores I would've been happy with it. I did notice, however, that the case typically found in stores has the same exterior but contains a clear vinyl "playthrough" sleeve which really doesn't work as well as I thought. I prefer the E3 giveaway version with two elastic straps that can simply remain flattened and go unused.
Once my collection grew, I picked up a Penguin United game case that holds 24 cards. It's a good option for anyone who wants to lug around a large amount of games.

This is my case... something official from Nintendo. I saw it on a Podcast doing evaluations of cases. I am in love with the storage. It holds 9 games on the interior, in protective sleeves. It has another zipper pouch which I use for GBA games. It has a tinier pouch up above which I use for more DS games (along with some plastic cases that hold three games at a time). It has a slide in zippable pouch on the side for the DS (plenty of cushion). I am pretty sure it is for the DS Lite, as my DS is very snug in there. It has another unsecured pouch in the front. Which I use for my wife's DS. And it all buckles nicely in the front.
Here are some (blurry) pictures.

I have an old GBA case that works well, and some neoprene DS one that I picked up along the way, but generally I just throw it into my pocket and go, no protection.
However, I fear that I've busted something in it, because I've turned on the L=A option in Pokemon Diamond and the L button doesn't work for A. I don't know if my L button is busted or if something is just goofy there -- need to find a game to test it with where L definitely should have a visible response.

I have a MadCatz case which holds six games and my DS Lite. My other games are in two pen bags (sorted by genre) which I take with me on longer trips.

I took two thick, woolen socks and put one inside the other . The DS goes inside of there, much the same way stuffing is inserted into a protective turkey.

I love that sfbags one. Gonna get me one in "kiwi." Currently using nothing and it's getting scratched. I've been waiting to find something classy like that.

I use that exact same case that's in your picture up there, which I also got at E3.
I'm really gonna miss the Nintendo booth at E3. I always walked out of there with something of worth.

I've said his before, but I keep my phat in a tube sock. It keeps it clean and doubles as a heavy weapon.

I used a white leather hard case with stitched detailing. My sister has the same one but in hot pink croc skin.

I use an old Digital Video Camera bag that holds my 2 DS Lites, around 25 games in 3 game per plastic cases, my accessories, and some random GBA games. It's about the size of a square Kleenex box and has plenty of room for more stuff.
