Crimson and Black! Also a silver launch Phat that we can't ever part with, and now, the proud owner of a broken Onyx Lite to fiddle with.

I've got the Cobalt/Black one, bought it on release day.

But that European lime green one is damn cool.

Electric Blue DS ($100) from 2006 Black Friday when I went at like 5 am to get that $1,000 42" Panasonic plasma.

I'm back in black.

I've had the electric blue phatty, polar white lite, crimson/black and the blue/black. I ebayed all but the blue/black which is now my wife's. Love the fact that these retain their value on ebay so that I can buy a newer color whenever I feel like it.

Zelda Edition bought on Black Friday '07. I got the last one in stock from my local gamestop about 30 mins from closing time. Never saw it on store shelves again anywhere so I consider myself lucky.

Polar white (with a jacked power switch)
Onyx (with a worn touch screen)
Crimson and Black (my newest and main machine)

I need to send my white and black ones in to get them fixed, but I'm lazy.

Uhm...Way back in the day I "borrowed" my friend's original silver phat. After 'bout 4 months he decided he missed it so I had to give it back. I ended up buying the teal Nintendogs phat 'cos I'd never seen anyone with the color before! Just left the decals in the trash.

Then when lites came out, I didn't get one for a while 'til I saw the Ice Blue... This was back in '05 or something. I decided I must have it because it was like my phat so I bought it and it's lovely. Everyone used to compliment me on it... but now it's gonna be all over the place so :P

Hinge crack doesn't bother me but losing the rare item status does. I'd like a purple one :)

I have the crimson & black DS. Barely managed to get it because every store I went to after Christmas had sold out. While at Wal*Mart, they had apparently sold out till I spotted a box behind the counter and asked if anyone claimed it. Apparently not, and it's against store policy for them to "hold" anything, so I scored it.

I just have the plain, boring white DSL.

I'm waiting for it to give out, so I can import the navy blue from Japan. But I'm also tempted to mod it to whatever color I choose.

I'm still rocking the "Go faster" Red DS Phat. I can't see any real reason to sidegrade to a Lite.

DS Lite Cobalt/Black. For my money, the best-looking one available anywhere, though the Zelda whore in me kind of wishes I could have gotten my hands on that one. The only thing that could get me to consider a new DS Lite would be if Nintendo released an NES-controller throwback like they did for the SP. Otherwise, I'm not big on hardware double-dipping.

Started with a launch-day White.

Picked up a Black just prior to Diamond/Pearl's release.

Since then, my local EB has offered $100 trade in on Lites twice, so I now have a Crimson/Black and a Cobalt/Black.

I couldn't decide on a ds color...I have my favorite my japanese ice blue named Aoi, my pink ds named Pinku, my Zelda gold ds named Akko, my Chinese dragon IQue named Lei Lin my metallic rose ds named Teana and my soon to be European ds which I haven't named yet...

I must say...I really really love dses

I have an original Silver DS that I got for Christmas 2004 and a Pokémon Dialga & Palkia DS Lite I got back in May 2007...I also have 49 DS games ^_^

Rockin' the crimson/black. Sexiest DS around.

And I am completely baffled as to why so many of you have multiple DSes...I can understand replacing a broken one, or upgrading from a phat to a lite, but other than that, it seems odd to spend money on a new DS if your current one works fine, just so you can have a new color. Do you need a different one for each outfit, or something?

I've had a phat since release day, I'm not interested in the lite...
