DS Diva

This Nintendo DS Lite Quilted Play-thru is just one of several Nintendo DS accessories on sale as part of Amazon’s Deal of the Day for Feb. 8. There are also system wraps and a Star Wars lightsaber stylus pack.

It’s the simple pleasures in life, like the appearance of a rainbow in the Nintendo DS game Animal Crossing: Wild World. I was so excited about my first rainbow sighting that I snapped a picture of it. You don’t “get” anything when a rainbow shows up on Animal Crossing. It’s just for fun.

Animal Crossing is a fun game that can be played five minutes at a time or an hour (or more) at a time. If you already have Animal Crossing for DS or Wii, you only have a couple of weeks left of snow! Make as many “perfect” snowmen as you can to get the exclusive snowman furniture and catch those rare fish.

MySims Kingdom is the Deal of the Day on Amazon for Feb. 4.

Drivers’ Ed Portable (currently discounted to $22.99 at Amazon.com–regularly $29.99)
My World My Way
Phineas and Ferb DS

Nintendo DS Pickings are slim in the Sunday ads this week.

Target is offering $5 Target gift cards with the purchase of the newly released game SimAnimals or the modern classic New Super Mario Bros.

At Best Buy, selected Imagine and Petz titles (The ad pictures Fashion Designer and Dogz) are $19.99, which is $10 off.

Buy.com has Hotel Dusk: Room 215 on sale for $14.99, including shipping, through Feb. 2. This “game” takes the Nintendo DS system to another level. Hotel Dusk plays like an interactive book as you try to solve the mystery and figure out why detective Kyle Hyde is so darn mysterious in the first place.
