Yes, I bit the bullet and bought a Nintendo DS. I can proudly say that it was worth the money. Tony and I had a little trouble acquiring one, but after trying three different Wal*Marts, we were able to buy one. We had to try three different locations because they told us (and the others that were waiting also) that they will not sell the handheld until November 26! I mean what is up with that?! I called them three hours before we went to make sure they were selling these at mid-night and I was told that they were. Long-story short, I hate two of the three Wal*Mart locations in our area. Anyways, I picked up Super Mario 64 DS as my game of choice; it's almost the same version as the one for Nintendo 64 except you can play as Mario, Yoshi, Wario, & Luigi, there are 30 more stars to collect AND!!! It has wireless multiplayer in the game as well. Oh and there's something about there being a touch screen .... "Touching is Good."

I cannot stress enough on how much I hate Comcast, G4 and its subsidiaries. I never liked the network and definitely do not now. They have canceled Martin Sargeants show "unscrewed" but most of all, they are "re-vamping" The Screen Savers. By revamping they mean, firing Yoshi, Alex, Dan and much of the backstage crew. Even since G4 bought TechTV (formerly ZDTV) (G4TechTV is slowing becoming a G4 only network, again), the station has gone down hill. They fired Leo Laporte, left Patrick behind in the acquisition and canceled Call for Help. I must say, Thanks G4 and Comcast. You are losing many viewers over this, I am one of them.
