The Best DS Lite Mod To Date

Whilst browsing the japanese Yahoo Auctions site for rare Sega Saturn goodness, I came across this modded Nintendo DS lite. Yahoo seller xxx_pumpkinfactory_xxx refurbished his DS not only with weird bling bling, which he probably stole from his girlfriend, but also with the miniature Sega Saturn Gashapon we all love. I dunno what to think about it. The Sega Saturn looks class as always, but the bling bling gives me the chills. Also note the selection of very expensive games underneath it! Psychic Assassin Taromaru (around 200 USD), Radiant Silvergun (around 150 USD), Death Crimson (! around 100 USD) and Guardian Heroes (well... cheap!) give the Saturn modded DS the stage it (probably) deserves. Oh and btw, click the picture for a bigger version.

On a sidenote: Yes, I'll also post something about Sega and the Sega Saturn in Japan, too! I still have to edit the photos I took, though. Approximately 1,100 pics! Don't worry, I won't post all of them in one single blog post.

  1. I like the miniture Sega,cd,game, and controller, but the rest is ugly... to me anyway.

  3. The bling bling is hideous...

    But hey, we sure can't ignore something that has a Saturn on it, can we?

    Oh, and I was beginning to wonder about the whereabouts of those photos. Take your time editing, I'm not going anywhere :)

  4. My God, that thing is hideous. It's almost an insult to the Saturn to associate it with such a monstrosity.

    *Starts fantasising about a portable Saturn.. Mmm.. *

  5. I'm just loving that the Saturn is the theme of the DS... As our other commentors have posted, the bling is ugly, but maybe it's just there to offset the beauty of the gashapon...
