$20 Brand-new DS Lite!

Hey guys, remember that thread I posted a while back called, "DS lite Contest!" It was on a site called Wanderpic.com, Which is kinda like artpad. So I made 2 entries under the name of Shweeeb, and low and behold, I won the title of "Most Creative" Picture. Now the original prize of the "Most Creative" Picture was supposed to be a USED, Ugly, Blue DS Phat. I was happy for the fact that I won a DS, so I didn't mind. Then I get an email, saying this:

"Okay! Hopefully you received the email from WanderPic saying that you had won the "favorite" category, which means that you won my junky old Nintendo DS. Here's the bad news, somehow I have managed to lose it. The good news is that to make up for it I'm willing to send you a $130 US Amazon.com gift certificate. That should be enough to cover a brand new DS Lite.

Let me know if this e-mail is okay to send the gift certificate to, or if you would like it sent to a different account. (I know that sometimes Hotmail can filter out things, and I'd hate for the gift certificate to be eaten by a spam blocker!)

If you have any questions, let me know, and thanks for the terrific Link DS drawing you put up on WanderPic!

WanderPic Admin"


So I was like, that's great! I didn't even win the DS lite contest, and I basically get a DS lite!

So anyways, Today, I recieved the Gift certificate,($150 CDN) and just now I bought myself the DS lite. Of course, theres still the Tax that has to be dealt with, which is how I end up with a $20 Brand-new DS lite! It'll be at my house next friday. :)

</End awsome story>

BTW for those that haven't seen my entries:

Yeah, There was a picture of it when the contest started. It was called, "The old DS of DOOM!" And it really did look pretty old looking. So I guess I'm glad right now.

Since my chances in getting the wii are way too slim, I think I'll just focus this christmas on DS games instead. Then I'll get a job by the time i get a Wii, So my mom/sister won't have to buy it for me.

Yeah I gotta try that one out... Damn though, I lost my DoS. I freaking love that game, and I have yet to finish julius mode. (The last boss is tough, but totally awsome!) So what's my DS history?

DS bought on launch day, metroid demo only.
A few days later, Sister buys SM64DS for me.<-Awsome game btw.
Brothers birthday, Yoshi T&G <-Blech I regret buying, although I do sometimes pick up and play, So it's ok now.
DS Stolen, along with SM64DS in it..(funny this was during one of my church group events...)
Gah! Why wasn't YT&G in there instead.
Hot Rod Red DS comes out.
Zellers bundle, Hot Rod Red w/Mario Kart+Animal crossing(raincheck)(only $200 )
Pick up animal crossing a day after release
Bought Castlevania DoS at EB(christmas money)
MP:H brothers birthday again
Brain age(allowance money)
Pokemon Trozei (my sisters boyfriend gave it to us, his friend steals from the store they work at.. Naughty Naughty)
Toronto Trip, bought Tony Hawk American Sk8land and Trauma Center
Sister bought Navy blue DS lite shared by the both of us, along with Super Monkeyball.
Sister buys Cooking mama.
Sister buys me Daigasso from Ebay for my birthday.
Sister buys Elite beat agents.

That pretty much ends it to now, the 3rd DS comming into my family, well fourth if you count the stolen one.

Trozei wasn't all that, i resold it. Mario Kart pwns, Animal Crossing gets boring, and SM64DS is an awesome remake.

Yeah but it was fun for a while.

Animal crossing is probably the only game that got me hooked so badly for a whole few months. Like I seriously breathed animal crossing. XD
