Blue and light blue Nintendo DS Lite with Zelda Mod

, Oct 7th 2007 Discuss [6]

It’s not an official product SKU, just something some guy in Australia whipped up, but it looks surprisingly good and it works. It has a metal Zelda badge thing on the front, it’s a shield with some symbols including the Tri Force, and there are some swords and arrows that cross behind the shield. Behind the shield there are a pair of bright green LEDs that have different operating modes, when the DS is on, the lights are on, when it’s in standby or off, the lights are off, and when you switch on the WiFi the lights start blinking. The paint job on the device looks amazing too, the bottom of the DS, the biggest portion of the hinge, and buttons and accents on the inside are all light blue. Read The Full Story

I believe our total time in the air was around 40 minutes. GM picked up the tab, so I wasn't too worried. The most annoying thing about that trip was the fact that there were literally only about 10 minutes that I was allowed to play my DS, as you can't operate electronic devices of any kind during takeoff or landing. Wouldn't it suck if you couldn't play your DS at all on a plane? Read The Full Story

DIY – Rumble Pak for your Nintendo DS

, Jul 22nd 2007 Discuss [0]

If you've longed for both a use for your old Pokemon Pinball cart and a rumble pak for your DS Lite, you're in luck. Someone has discovered a way to make a rumble pak out of that old cartridge. I never actually bothered to play Pokemon Pinball, but the game actually had a rumble feature built into the cartridge. The rumble motor is far too large for this mod, so the motor out of an old Nokia phone was used. Read The Full Story
