DS Daily: Accessory slowdown
We love DS accessories. Cases, styli, Famicom cartridge adapters, replacement casings with damn llamas unicycling on them -- buying stuff to use with our DS Lites is almost as enjoyable as buying stuff to use in our DS Lites. But a new DS is on the way, and we have yet to make a decision about our purchase intent -- well, Eric seems to have arrived at a decision, but the rest of us are situated somewhere in the fence area.Have you stalled on DS or DS Lite accessory purchases since the announcement of the DSi? You wouldn't want to have a Gachapin DS Lite protector in your home and not be able to use it.
Play Famicom games on your DS Lite with 'Familator'
Hideous name, and less-than-hideous hardware. CYBER Gadget's "Familator Lite" plugs into a DS Lite's GBA slot, allowing users to insert their Famicom cartridges and re-live their favorite Nintendo classics in portable form.Would rather re-live the classics on television? The device allows for TV out. Would rather play with the original Famicom controllers? Well... the device doesn't do that, actually. But it does that other stuff!The Familator Lite is due out in Japan in December, but no price has been set. Sadly, the device's form factor means it's only compatible with the DS Lite, and not its phatter older brother.[Via DS Fanboy]
