DS Fanswag: Win a Cobalt DS Lite


Oh, you read that right. We're giving one lucky reader a brand-spanking-new Cobalt DS Lite (retails for $129.99). As one might imagine after seeing several giveaways on this blog before, entering to win this sweet handheld is a snap.

First of all, you must be 18 years of age or older (kids, ask you big brother or sister or your parents to enter for you!) and currently reside in the United States. So, if you meet those qualifications, all you need to do is tell us why you deserve this Cobalt DS Lite. Have you been reading us for awhile? Do you make your own DS Fanboy t-shirts in your spare time (send us one?) and have one for every day in the week? Whatever the reason is, tell us!

But, you can only comment once per day. So, don't go entering more than one comment each day or else you're disqualified. The contest begins as of right now and ends on Wednesday, February 20th at 11:59pm EST. Finally, give our official rules a read. Once done, get to entering.

Good luck!

Because I'm not willing to actually buy a new DS Lite until the US gets solid-color systems like Japan. Why not just make it all cobalt? Or all red? Did they have a warehouse full of black DS Lite bottom halves?

DS Fanboy is THE place I get current, relevant, and entertaining Nintendo DS hardware and software coverage. It's the first site I check in the morning, and the last site I check at night.

Also, cobalt is a kick-ass color, and I don't think my wife would believe me if I "accidentally" damaged my White Lite in order to go out and buy a Cobalt one. I'd be forced to paw at those blank, dead screens like a puppy at the front door wanting to be let in out of a thunderstorm.

Furthermore, the only contest I have ever won was a McDonald's French fry eating contest when I was 8. Is it so much to ask that a regular guy like me gets lucky once in his life in a non-food-related venue?

So, pretty please?

My current DS Lite has a stuck green pixel in the lower screen. It *totally* ruins my rhythm when playing "Elite Beat Agents."

I would really like to get this DS Lite to give to my girlfriend, whom I've been dating for nearly two years. She gave me my first and only DS for my birthday/christmas, and I'd really love to give her one too, but I can't afford it because of bills, and it seems like everyone in my family has been getting the flu in a row, and we all chip in when one of our family members gets sick. My girlfriend really loves Super Mario 64 and Banjo Kazooie, and She loves loves loves to play Super Mario 64 DS, but she refuses to borrow mine.

I've been visiting this site for awhile, but I deserve a Cobalt DS so that I can give it to a friend. I am the only person I know who has a DS, so if I can give an extra DS to a friend, then I can participate in awesome multiplayer action that was unavailable before. Also, if I can get another person interested in DS systems it could be another potential reader for you.

I deserve it because my phat seems to have lost the ability to connect to other DS (no wireless multiplayer for me).

I deserve that snappy blue cobalt ds because.. i don't have a ds anymore.
it started when my ac adaptor got chewed up by my dog. then i wasnt using it as much, and somehow it ended up on the floor and stepped on by someone. the top screen is done. i can still play some of my games, like meteos, but it just isnt the same.
and i've been going on like that for a year. i read about new games, but i can't really play them.

i. havent. played. zelda. yet.

I check DS Fanboy on the daily and I love my DS! However, my Phat sometimes makes me self-conscious when I need to whip it out in public. The Cobalt Lite would really improve my aesthetic.

I deserve to win this cobalt/black DS Lite because it'll remind me of the cobalt blue Phat I had but gave to my neice and nephew for Christmas the last time they visited along with their favorite games Mario Kart and Nintendogs.
