It’s amazing what changing the packaging on a device will do for its perceived quality. I picked up a Ninto DS Lite a couple of days ago…
Somehow, playing with the case design and materials took it from being a “grey plastic kid’s toy” to a “dual screen micro-iBook”. They also changed the surface of the touch screen to give it a more paper-like feel. All in all, I like it.
Of course, my only real reason for getting it was because it’s new tech, but I also picked up Electroplankton. If you haven’t seen it, I’m not sure I can explain it to you. It’s not really a game, but more like a musical toy. I expect to waste hours playing with it.
