eXceem - DS Lite Black or White?

Haerandel · 10-08-06, 09:23 AM

I am currently selling my Nintendo DS on ebay (freebie received from gameconsolegiveaway) to replace it with a DS Lite.
Has anybody got the Lite?
I am wondering which colour is the best looking.
Please post your opinion...

I am selling my DS on ebay as well to get a DS lite. It was sold last week for Â£96. I was well chuffed seeing as it was second hand and had no games. Unfortunately the winning bidder has not payed up and is ignoring my emails etc. I thought it was too good to be true.

Anyway...Black or White - You don't want to be seen as racist so get the black (just kidding). The black is more expensive on amazon by Â£5. Alot of people complain about fingerprints on the outside glossy exterior and how they are always having to clean it. The plastic buttons on the white seem to turn yellow after a while but this does not show up on the black one. The white DS seems to be suffering from cracks in the hinge. The numbers affected are small - 0.02% - and Nintendo will replace them for free if you get a crack. I called Nintendo and they said some black DS's also have cracks, Its just more people own whites so there will be more people reporting cracked white DSs.
If you want to stand out from the crowd get the black, otherwise save yourself Â£5 and get the white.

Wow! that's a lot of info!
Thanks for that.
i'll be looking into cracks and yellowing buttons.
cheers.

biggad · 10-08-06, 10:22 AM

i got a black one and the fingerprints do get quite bad on the outside but it's no big deal. I think it looks better than the white one.

Where are you buying it from?

Haerandel · 10-08-06, 10:26 AM

ebay if i get enough from the DS or amazon, most probably.

kendgreat · 10-08-06, 10:35 AM

Your almost better getting it from amazon because the postage is free and its guaranteed to be brand new. How much time is to go on your DS and what price are you hoping to get for it? Do you have a reserve price?

Haerandel · 10-08-06, 10:38 AM

i do not have a reserve price and at the moment it's going for Â£64 with an hour to go.
i'm hoping to get more than that though, as it's in very good condition and bundled with 2 games!

Simon · 10-08-06, 10:47 AM

Id go for a white one...looks more simple and if you have a black psp like me it doesnt match it!

**claire80** · 10-08-06, 01:09 PM

kendgreat · 10-08-06, 05:33 PM

whatever colour you get you wont be allowed to play it on the plane

samiamiam · 10-08-06, 05:44 PM

I'm just selling my ds on ebay too to get an ds lite - i think i'm going to go for the black - I wish there were more colour options available in the uk though

drkul · 10-08-06, 06:08 PM

go for white imo, looks nicer

samiamiam · 10-08-06, 06:49 PM

Ooh sold for Â£91, think I'm going to go for a pink one from yesasia

kendgreat · 10-08-06, 08:51 PM

Â£91 - What condition was it in and did you sell it with any games?

samiamiam · 11-08-06, 06:48 AM

It was used, in good condition, with original box. I sold it with nintendogs and a carry case

**zara** · 12-08-06, 06:16 PM

Get the black DS, everyone knows black ones are better

woostar · 12-08-06, 06:50 PM
