Strange that a game about foiling a German nuclear threat is only available in German regions.

In addition, you may recognize Sting as the former front-man of the American reggae-influenced rock band "the Police", and possibly you know him as Ace Face, the feisty scooter-riding idol in Quadrophenia. If memory serves me, Sting also served as the namesake for Bilbo Baggins' acquired knife in Tolkein's beloved tales, in addition to being the source of the word "sting", meaning a pain caused by a sharp prick.

I hate you people, so I think I'll enjoy the single player.

I have a black/red one.

I'll be thankful to receive that Crash game in two (2) separate contests!

Front Mission has robots!

Wait, what?

I don't really think these are recall worthy problems, but it would be nice to hear some acknowledgment that they are using lower quality screens and that, hopefully, they plan to return to previous manufacturers. But, yeah right, investors would not like that at all.

Oh, another thing -- when cleaning the top screen I noticed that it has that weird liquid silver smear more and with less pressure applied than the other DS Lite. These definitely seem to be lower quality. That being said, I do appreciate the feel of the matte surface for the lower half, the start and select buttons have a satisfying "click" to them, and the d-pad seems tighter. Screens are a definite bummer, though.

Didn't notice the problems mentioned, but I did notice that the touch screen had a different "feel", the stylus seemed to glide more smoothly over the old one (which I had available to do a side-by-side comparison). In fact, with the new DS the stylus almost seems to drag along the surface, and I noticed a scratch after one day's play -- something that never occurred with my old white system after months of play. It also had a more noticable glare in day-light, and the glare itself was wavy rather than straight & reflective like the other Lite. I'm pretty bummed, because unfortunately I can't return it and get my traded-in Lite back.
