That would make the price what?

Well, if there is ever a system you do not want to buy used, I would imagine the DS is it... who wants an abused touchscreen.

Speaking of abused Touchscreens....  The local Best Buys DS unit is unplayable.  Someone used the stylus and pressed really hard on the screen and made grooves.  It doesnt respond to any touch now.

At $130, I'll probably pick one up. Been wanting one since they came out, but $150 seemed a bit steep for what it is.

Not a rumor anymore. It will officially drop to $129.99 with the release of Nintendogs. Not so sure about those games though...
