Given your choice of words there, I'm surprised you'd want anything but the white one.

Post by: raptorspike on September 22, 2005, 11:39:01 AM: ok, so my wording wasn't the best I've ever had. But how dare you imply that I am racist! and other than going with the previous racist theme, why would I want a white game system? Now that I have color choices, i would much rather go with a black one. Because black electronics just look so much better and are more aesthetically pleasing!

Post by: raptorspike on September 22, 2005, 12:32:40 PM: Thanks for the defense. I didn't mean any offense by what I said. I am just sick of the japanese getting like fourty colors to choose from. And we get 4, and only two of them are worthwhile (silver and electric blue). I just want a black DS stateside to match all my other electronics

Post by: vudu on September 22, 2005, 12:51:17 PM: Pink is very worthwhile. I totally want the Pearl Pink DS. Unfortunately, I'll have to settle for my Pink Stylus that should arrive any day now.

I know! Pink is totally awesome.

My favorite d10 is pink.

Just be thankful that you don't live in Australia, where you get to choose from Silver, Silver and you guessed it, Silver!

Lol at HudsonHawk and KDR.

Title: RE:DS Case Colors
Post by: raptorspike on September 22, 2005, 06:17:12 PM: It's one thing to call someone a racist for consistent speech like that. It's another to call someone a racist for one slip-up in a moment of mild anger
Title: RE: DS Case Colors
Post by: Artimus on September 22, 2005, 07:56:18 PM: It's also another thing to call someone a racist when he didn't even mention a race.

I believe the term you want is bigot.

But regardless, I did that once before too (here no less). I just didn't realize Jap was still considered offensive. I didn't even mean it like the syaing 'Jap', I was just shortening Japanese. I imagine he was doing the same.

Post by: MarioAllStar on September 22, 2005, 08:19:45 PM: Yeah I have made the same mistake somewhere before as well. As far as I know, Brittish people don't mind being called "Brits," so logic would tell you that "Japs" is the same, though it is not.

I'm not extremely big on the colors, but if I was given the Japanese's selection and didn't have a DS already I would probably not get silver.

Post by: MrMojoRising on September 23, 2005, 12:18:38 AM: If the color is that important to you couldn't you just import a Japanese one? The DS isn't region specific right?
Title: RE:DS Case Colors
Post by: raptorspike on September 23, 2005, 02:51:29 AM: I would import one, if it didn't cost a crapload more, and make me wait. (I am extremely impatient)
