The speakers is gone!

The speakers are there, but they're along the wall of the groove.
Ah, I remember that fat bastard.
I'd still like to have one, for the sake of collection.

@BPM:
don't you mean "phat" bastard?
=)
BPM @ Jul 7th 2007 2:48AM
No, I don't. In fact, I completely despise the term "DS Phat." Completely.

actually has a kinda retro charm. They should release it as a limited edition.. or a clip on skin.

I appreciate the photo credit Joystiq :)
I remember spending so much time in the DS demo booth that year. The system was butt-ugly and I had little faith in it. The shoulder buttons were these awkward little red circle button things and the whole system just felt awful.
It has definitely come a long way since then.

It looks like the Poke'Dex from Diamond & Pearl.
Coincendence?????
