So.. I used to own a DS lite back in the day.. but it broke in my backpack back in my 20’s. I still own my old Pokémon games (heart gold and leaf green) and was hoping to get back into them.

DS lite went for $129 in the US back when they came out in 2006.. adjusted for inflation that’s about $195. 

I guess I’m wondering if anyone has any experience buying any of these refurbs I’m seeing online.

Are these 20 year old consuls worth $160 ?

I already tried asking this question on the Nintendo sub Reddit, and no one cared…

I worked in Alaska at a canning plant for a salmon season once. All the men lived in one bunk house and we shared a bathroom with shower stalls..

there was one guy that thought it was the funnest thing in the world to leave a log in the shower he used that morning..

it happened so often that they called a meeting with everyone in the men’s bunk house. Just to tell us if it happened again someone would get sent home on their dollar ($1300 plane ride home). He pretended to be super grossed out and kept saying things like “this isn’t funny guys” and “this needs to stop”.. sigh.

Anyways.. he worked on the loading dock and got hit in the mouth by a crane. Broke all his teeth. the company payed $30,000 to get him a new set.

I’m trying to sign into that app.. but I have no idea which server I’m connected to.. I couldn’t figure out how to leave a question in asklemmy. I think I’m using the website as a hot link on my phones Home Screen.. it doesn’t have a lot of options. Can you tell which server I’m connected to?

Turbo kid. It’s a gory mess covered in 80s nostalgia.
