Iun Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 A long, long time ago... I can't still remember how you used to make me smile. And you knew if you had your chance, you'd do a funny little dance, and make me very happy for a while. But this February made me shiver... with ever combo I'd deliver: A red light on your doorstep, I'd only taken one more step. I can't remember if I cried when I realised you were broken inside, But something stung between my eyes... the day, my DS... died. ...so bye-bye little silver guy, You were heavy, Always ready for games on the fly, The good old times in days long gone by, I never thought that you'd say "goodbye", And this'd be the day that you'd die. RIP, Iun's DS Phat 2004-2010. Given as freebie by Nintendo. Sadly missed. :weep::weep::weep::weep::weep: My little DS. Been with me for 6 years - went to America with me, spent countless nights playing FFTA2, those quiet business trips with nothing to do... spent 3 years here with me in China, but the battery now retains a 30 minute charge at most. No replacements available here any more. Poor little guy.
Iun Posted February 5, 2010 Author Posted February 5, 2010 Come here. 'nk you. It's just so... senseless. I mean, 6 years together and then...
Shorty Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 Maybe it'll be enough if you know that in the few years you had together, you loved a lifetime's worth.
MoogleViper Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 When are you next back here? You can still get them over here.
Iun Posted February 5, 2010 Author Posted February 5, 2010 When are you next back here? You can still get them over here. Maybe Christmas this year, but I'm really not sure. I already bought a Lite to replace it. But... the screen... it's so... bright and big... I just, I mean... what was wrong with the original DS? But to have one the same so soon afterwards... it would just hurt too much.
MoogleViper Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 Well I'm sorry for your loss. But you mustn't blame the lite. It's not her fault. You should show her love and respect as well. *strokes fully functional DS phat*
S.C.G Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 I feel your pain Iun... still, console yourself in the knowledge that you touched each other in special ways and will always have memories of the good times that you shared.

or else you will DIE Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 mine is still going strong! ha ha!
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 You know you're a softy when an In Memoriam for a DS actually touches you. R.I.P. Iun's DS
Nolan Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 Interestingly, today is the day that MS is basically deciding to kill off Xbox Live for the original console.
Jimbob Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 I've not heard of a Ninty product only lasting 6 years, my original Gameboy is still going and i've had that 19 years. Still, i'm sorry for the loss Iun. I've held a DS Lite and i don't like the feel of them compared to the original.
Raining_again Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 *gives iun a huge hug* That sucks man, sorry for your loss!
Solo Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 Ohhh the hours and hours I spent playing 'Find Luigi' on Mari64 DS, those were the sweet, sweet days. *tear* RIP your DS
Ashley Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 Probably for the best. We all know you can't be trusted with anything over the age of 6.
ReZourceman Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 Condolences to you. Hows the Wii holding up? And the GBC? I know he's old now, and news like this might tick him over the edge too.
Iun Posted February 6, 2010 Author Posted February 6, 2010 Thanks everyone. Honestly speaking, I'm surprised that the battery lasted this long anyway, considering my phone batteries tend to go for a year, then only hold a three-day charge.
Dyson Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 I hope my DS Phat covered his ears whilst hearing that!
Iun Posted February 6, 2010 Author Posted February 6, 2010 I hope my DS Phat covered his ears whilst hearing that! Crikey! I have to say that I'm a little surprised that there are so many other people using their DS Phat's every day!
Coolness Bears Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 you were made from wires and to wires you shall return. You have served well. *salutes*
