Pre-Review Notes

My first experience with Nintendo’s DS platform was through a blue DS-fat given to me by my boyfriend at the time for my birthday, and up until April 2, 2009 I had not turned it in for anything, nor have I acquired a DS Lite. As a result, any comparisons I may make will be restricted solely to the DS-fat vs. the DSi.

Monday, Monday, Monday… Today’s Awesome of the Day is the World’s Fastest Kettle.
