To be honest, my reaction to Mayumi Hasegawa's snakeskin DS cover was pretty much the same as JC's response to the matching Wiimote sleeve: it's kinda gross. Fashioned from the skin of a diamond python, this DS skin -- while obviously ... unique -- is just about the creepiest accessory we've ever encountered for the handheld.Coating your beloved console with dead animal remains isn't a cheap exercise, either: the full set costs ¥12,800 ($120), but you can also buy just the top half for ¥5,800 ($53). Then again, if you're going to put something totally disgusting on your DS, why do things by half?
[Thanks, Dhiram!]

That looks like it would be a great cover except for the fact that organic material leads to undesired results. After awhile there will be patches after scales fall off, not to mention having your camouflaged DS attacked by the local mongoose.
Stupid mongoose.

You hate the mongoose now, but what about when the Basilisk comes? Huh? You'll be glad you've got the mongoose then.
- NOT THE LOCAL MONGOOSE

Nobody likes the local mongoose. He's a corrupt character that teaches the local kids bad morals with his Rock and Roll music and individuality. To heck I say. TO HECK!

Kinda gross is right. Especially for something that will eventually disintigrate.
