DSMoonLite ✨

Close-up of my fave from the retro dreams set..!! My DS brought me so much joy in my teen years... Tiny origin story under the readmore :') [ stickers / keych / pins here! ]

I'm Lithuanian, and Nintendo was Not A Thing when I was growing up. But I was on Tumblr (AND HERE I AM AGAIN.) and I kept seeing everyone enjoying Pokemon, Zelda, etc., I was so jealous... I did manage to emulate them in DesMuMe, but it just wasn't the same. I really, really wanted the real deal. But I couldn't convince my parents to let me buy one on eBay, because "it looks like some small overpriced toy"... ;;W;;

So I secretly saved up money from my very first Etsy shop when I was 15-16, (illegal yes I lied about my age when I opened it haha..) selling little clay jewellery and figurines. I ordered a pink one despite being a ~pink hater~ at that age, because it was the cheapest one I could find. Some weeks later, it arrived, along with an R4 card (yes the bootleg rom card, YOU try affording Nintendo games in Eastern Europe in 2009....... ;w;) and oh MAN I can't tell you how many hours I spent on that thing. Endless amount of joy and late nights...

And whenever my parents saw me playing on it, I just kept telling them I borrowed it from my friend. (Hey Squibby! :'D) I still have it, and it still works, with the very same R4 card!

Thanks for the endless hours of fun, lil buddy! ♥ :D

On a positive note today, I did some minor surgery on my DSlite and fixed the power switch so it'll stop spontaneously turning on and off 🤙

Still my fave system. It's been on lifesupport a few times now. Hoping 3rd repair's the charm 🤞
