Did You Know?
Mario Kart DS Bundle Burns Rubber with Red-Hot Nintendo DS
On Nov. 28, Nintendo will offer a special bundle of the new Wi-Fi-enabled Mario Kart ® DS racing game with the fifth new Nintendo DS ™ color, Hot Rod Red (artwork attached). The package will be available at an MSRP of $149.99, for a savings of about $15. The Hot Rod Red DS will come with a checkered-flag wrist strap and a series of racing-inspired decals to let owners customize their rides with sporty numbers or red-hot flames.
Mario Kart DS will be the first Nintendo game to take advantage of Nintendo ® Wi-Fi Connection, Nintendo’s free wireless gaming service. DS owners around the world will be able to race one another wirelessly using high-speed Internet connections at home or at Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection hotspots. With more than 30 new and classic racetracks, racers will be able to show their style as they aim for the finish line.
Mario Kart DS , Rated E for Everyone, launches on Nov. 14.

If they give them away in a US-only exclusive deal I'll be peeved...

I'm sure they could work out a reasonable price, close to but not more than 200 USD. If Nintendo won't do it, I wouldn't be surprised if Gamestop(Ebgames) does.

So the flames and numbers are optional.

And I need to spend less so I can do Christmas shopping.

Stop buying so many silly RPGs and get a good game for once...

When Dragon Quest VIII comes out at the end of November, I'm going to be playing it with my Slime controller, when that comes out too!.
I will buy a non-RPG if I am interested in it. It's just that not much over that RPG's have interested me lately. I did get DMC3 and finishe dit, but I didn't like it, too much of a really stoopid story.

You posted in the Mario Kart DS bundle thread in the 'Game Boy and Nintendo DS' thread (and didn't have anything negative to say about the decals) 21 hours before coming to this thread and complaining about them. What's the point?
Post by: Ian Sane on October 13, 2005, 09:30:35 AM
Yeah, three sentences. I'm just on a total b!tchfest regarding the flames.
It's just an observation. And I had nothing to say about the decals before because the other thread I only looked at Bill's boxart link because the other one wasn't working well at the time so I didn't even know about them.
