If you need one good reason why you would want a DS Phat in this day and age, this would be the one.
Not long after a Zelda DS Lite went for US$800 on eBay, a DS Phat is now up for sale (currently at US$620). This is not just any DS Phat, this one is signed. And it's not just one signature either. On this one DS, three people signed it - Shigeru Miyamoto, Satoru Iwata and Charles Martinet.
Any Nintendo fanboy can tell you who these people are (well, maybe not so much Martinet, but definitely the first two... anyhow, let's move on). For those who don't know who they are, Miyamoto is the brain behind Mario and Zelda, Iwata is the current CEO of Nintendo (also worked with Miyamoto on Mario and Zelda) and Martinet is the voice actor for Mario.
Now I'm not a Ninty fanboy (or fanboy or anything, for that matter), so I had to ask, "Mario has a voice?"
For those who didn't get the Zelda DS, this is your second chance.
BTW, read the listing for a behind the scene look at how the seller managed to get the signatures onto the DS.
