Happy 5th Birthday Nintendo DS!
November 21 is the official anniversary of the Nintendo DS, which hit stores five years ago today.
Over the past five years, the DS has seen its fair share of changes, from the cosmetic: awesome bundles and color options (like gold, red, blue, and green) and fun cases — to the inventive: this year's DSi and subsequent accessories and larger-screen model available overseas.
I'm proud to profess my love for the DS again this year: Happy Birthday Nintendo DS!
