Pokemon Limited Edition NDSL bundle details.

Since it is already 17th August in Usa, some gamers have purchased the Pokemon limited edition NDSL bundle. Too bad for us in Malaysia like Blue Berry, you guys might have to wait a few days before getting your hands on this bundle.

Like I mentioned before, there are several things included in this bundle. Now more details could be found of the freebies since the details has popped up at gonintendo.

DS:
Hinge and inside are a slightly metallic looking onyx.

Poster:
Front has grovyle from Mystery Dungeon stealing a Time Gear
Back has Pokemon game information (from left to right: Diamond/Pearl, Mystery Dungeon 2, Pokemon Ranger 1 and 2)

Case:
Holds system and 3 DS games

DvD:
Slip includes password for special mission in Mystery Dungeon 2 (code: 78SR -H2m PO+4 Y6FY 1&Y+ #R9S Prize:Luxray Fang)

The info above was submitted by Deadmen to gonintendo.

Haha, code in the dvd was originally meant for those who are interested in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2 to get the bundle. But it seems like for those who dont really feel like spending on the bundle, you guys get the code for free because of Deadmen. Let us thank Deadmen, shall we?

Another limited edition(s?) of Nintendo DS Lite

Another limited edition of Nintendo DS Lite that is slated to release on August 17, which is only 5 days away(Malaysia time at least). This time it is a Pokemon limited edition that features a black Nintendo DS Lite emblazoned with the images of 2 legendary pokemons in Pokemon Diamond and Pearl, Palkia and Dialga. It seems like this is just the same Nintendo DS Lite like the Pokemon Center Special Edition Nintendo DS Lite that was previously only available in Japan in limited quatity.

Not bad huh? For those who were interested in this limited edition, I guess it is now time to preorder it. Good things about this USA limited edition is that it comes along with a special Mystery Dungeon DVD, a Dialga and Palkia carrying case, a collectible poster and best of all the whole package is just priced at a normal retail price, usd129.90. Not a bad deal right?
The carrying case.

The special DVD.


I just check at Amazon, Gamestop and Play Asia and I found out that only Amazon has it up for preorder currently but I guess eventually they will have it for sale too when it is released. For those who are interested, you might wanna inquire your local retailers. Hehe, Blueberry is already excited for this and plans to sell off his current Nintendo DS Lite just for this baby.

PS: Not sure whether I should list another limited edition of NDSL here but since I bumped into it while searching for the pics above, I cant resist to post another limited edition of Nintendo DS Lite.

This exclusive High Gloss White Giratina limited edition is even rarer than the one I posted above. Basically, if you dont live in Japan, you are out of luck for this baby. And even if you are staying in Japan now, the chance of getting is still rare. You need to be a member of Pokemon Dai Suki Club then only you will stand the chance to win this! This baby will be given out free for those lucky winners during September along with the release of Pokemon Platinum and the new Summer 2008 movie.

Still interested in it even though it will be extremely limited? Then just prepare to burn a hole in your pocket for it. This baby is available here at usd374.95 excluding shipping(it does ship to Malaysia, but just prepare for exorbitant shipping fee). Perhaps later it will pop up at Play-Asia, so just keep your fingers crossed if you hope to get it there.

Maybe soon enough in the future this NDSL will see its light in USA and just like the latest Pokemon NDSL in USA, it may come with more neater stuffs? Never say never! For those who are dont want to risk and just have a whole lot of cash to burn, just head to the respective site that I posted above to purchase it.

PS again: Hehe, this post is wholeheartedly dedicated to PM, which is the big fan of Pokemon series. PM, are you interested to get them?

Limited edition Nintendo DS Lite

Today someone at LYN showed us that Play Asia is selling an absurdly overpriced Baby Milo edition of Nintendo DS Lite and when I checked at the site, it features not only one but 4 limited edition of Nintendo DS Lite. Shall we have a look at those expensive consoles?

1) Nintendo DS Lite(Baby Milo Edition by A Bathing Ape X Nintendo-Mario To Milo)-usd699.90

Some of the forumers dont understand why it costs usd699.90 while you can get this easily if you just buy some stickers and slap the stickers into your Nintendo DS. But I dont think that those are stickers and they are supposed to be etched into the console itself hence it wont fade easily. Anyway, this console is very rare hence resulting in its exorbitant price. Many Bape fans lined up when it was released and it was sold out very fast. Look at the line here before the console was released!

I guess for ordinary gamers like me the price is just not worth it as we can get so many games with the money. Anyway, I am sure there are some Bape fans out there who wish to get it, so dont hesitate to head over to Play Asia and get it now before it is out of stock. Currently Play Asia is only selling the white version and for those who are interested in the gold version, you might want to wait for a while before it is listed at the site.

2. Nintendo DS Lite(honeyee.com x fragment edition)-usd499.90

The second expensive Nintendo DS Lite on Play Asia currently. It is a collobration project between Nintendo, Honeyee and Fragment. This console looks cooler than the Baby Milo Nintendo DS Lite in my opinion because of its unique color combination. Unlike the normal Crimson/Black or Cobalt/Black Nintendo DS Lite where only the upper and outer body of Nintendo will be either red or blue while the rest body will be black, this awesome edition of Nintendo DS Lite will be black when it it closed while the inner part is total white. Speaking of universally agreed combination of awesomeness!

3. Nintendo DS Lite(Nenga New Year Greeting Special Edition)-usd499.90

This console is by far the worst among the 4 limited editions that I include in this post. I dont think that the price is justified. What is special about this unit? It was an exlusive all red console. But do note that the same color of Nintendo DS Lite is now available to Europe market and it wont be as expensive as this unit. Other than the color itself(and this is no longer the selling point) and the fact that it comes with several unreadable paper(for me at least as I dont understand Japanese words), it is nothing special and it is better off if you use the extra money to get something else. Please stay away from this if you plan to get it!

4. Nintendo DS Lite(Crimson/Black Dragon iQue DS special edition)-usd299.90


The last Nintendo DS that I am going to mention here is the China exclusive limited edition and it was released during Chinese New Year 2008 for China. It is a crimson/black Nintendo DS Lite that features a dragon painting on its outer body. The dragon painting looks cool and it means prosperity in Chinese culture.

Wow, after 3 years Nintendo DS has been released, there are so many colors available and now so many limited editions could be found. As for me, since I am not really interested in getting limited edition of Nintendo DS Lite(I would rather use the money to get more games) as they are sometimes too overpriced, I can only drool at those pictures. But I know there are some hardcore Nintendo DS collectors out there who are interested to gobble down every single edition of Nintendo DS Lite, so dont miss you chance and head over to Play Asia now to make your purchase.

I Play For Me

As if Nintendo DS is not commercially successful around the globe, Nintendo recently rolled out their latest ad campaign with a slogan, I Play For Me to push up the sales of NDSL consoles. With their latest famous ambassadors, they are trying to reach the female demographic to show them the fun they could have with NDSL. Let's have a look at the ad, shall we?


Carrie Underwood of American Idol fame is shown playing Nintendogs on a Metallic Rose NDSL.


Liv Tyler having fun with Brain Age.


America Ferrera with her most notable role, Betty Suarez in Ugly Betty blasting through New Super Mario Bros. Do notice that her NDSL is a little special with her name on it so I assume that DS is really her own NDSL. According to her, she has been a Nintendo follower since she was a kid.
