Enhance your Nintendo DS™ gaming experience with the DS Extras Pack from 4Gamers

Stockport, UK. – February 11, 2005 – Nintendo has always been associated with first class portable gaming and the name GameBoy® has been the vanguard of hand-held consoles for nearly twenty years. The beginning of a new era starts on March 11th 2005 with the launch of the next generation of Nintendo games systems, the awesome Nintendo DS™!

Gamers everywhere are counting down the days until they can get hold of a Nintendo DS™. To ensure their gaming experience is second to none 4Gamers has compiled the DS Extras Pack consisting of seven premium quality accessories specifically chosen to complement the stunning new hand-held console.

A soft silver case allows gamers to protect their Nintendo DS™ while travelling and a thin aluminum business card-style case provides perfect storage for up to three game cards and a stylus.

Owners of the DS Extras Pack will be able to enjoy the Nintendo DS™'s fantastic stereo sound in complete privacy by using the bud-style earphones. These stylish earphones plug directly into the hand-held console and feature an in-line volume control for optimum performance.

Gamers never need to run out of power with the DS Extras Pack. An in-car charger is supplied together with a battery-powered emergency charger that will allow gamers to fully charge their system from four AA batteries in about four hours.

The DS Extras Pack line-up is completed with the inclusion of a spare stylus and a set of screen protectors that fit over the Nintendo DS™'s revolutionary touch-sensitive screen and save it from unwanted scratches and damage.

Gamers can now carry on the Nintendo gaming experience wherever they are. The 4Gamers DS Extras Pack (SPC0502) is the ultimate accessory set for the Nintendo DS™ and will be launched in conjunction with the Nintendo DS™ console on March 11th 2005 with a MRRP of £19.99.

Those 'extras' packs have always bugged me. Not so much the packs them selves but when I’m shopping around Kroger and I see a little kid following his/her mommy playing on a Gameboy Advance with at least 3 accessories plugged into it, they’ve got the magnifying glass, the 4 spot lights, big ‘ol Xbox handles so their little hands can’t hardly reach the buttons, inch and a half stereo speakers, and they use all this to play the original pokemon. I’m not against pokemon but these kids HAD to have the gameboy and HAD to have the XtrEEm Gam0Rz kit. And their parents bought them all this crud to play a game that they were playing already with their old ‘cool gamers’ kit for their gameboy color.
I mean the dang system turns on out of the box and that wasn't enought for them, they had to increase the size of the portable system to where it bearly fits into a backpack, much less a pocket.
um...yeah....

Wow, another article where the writer fails to see the obvious space that has always existed between the words "Game" and "Boy". Way to go!freak>

I've been waiting for something like this game/stylus wallet. I hope someone makes one for us here in the States. I've been having to keep my games in my wallet like/with my guitar picks. Sure, there's that DS/GBA holder from MadCatz, but that's rather hefty.

Why do people need accessories like these anyway? I find that my Nintendo DS just the way it is ... works just fine.

The only thing I need is a good case. So far they're either soft, cheap, or as huge as a cinder block.
