This gives Nintendo the opportunity to look “generous” by offering old handheld games as downloadable titles on the DSiWare Store. It’s ingenous, isn’t it? Nintendo fans will lap it up, claiming that Nintendo truly cares about the “core gamer” and Reggie Fils-Aime will be carried through the streets as a king.

The pouch is made up of different colored felt appliques which are hand sewn together to give it a more realistic and 3-D feel. Made exactly of the same size as the DS-Lite, with dimensions of 4” x 6 1/2”, the pouch provides the precise room for holding the DS-Lite. Also, the pouch has enough space to house some stationary, an iPod, your glares, a small digicam and many more stuffs.

(You’re better off getting your ROMs from Usenet, or from a “trusted” BitTorrent source, in my professional opinion.) In any event, yeah, The Man found out, and now the Kyoto District Court has ordered the 38-year-old to prison, plus a nice fine to go along with his sentence.
