I dont know they are VERY hard to find!!!! We got ours at toyrus. It was a bundle pack. Came with 2 games and head phones. My son loves it! You can also watch movies on it!!!!

just a note DS's have several issues we just had to order a replacement one battery was not holding a charge. And the first one I bought for DS had a bad pixel. I charged to up to check and since it was brand new I just returned it to target for another one.

Nintendo CS is Great we had our replacement unit in 2 days now we just have to return the bad unit.

Not everyone's DS's will have problems. (Just saying)

I've seen one dropped on the concrete, skid across a parking lot, in the rain. It was absolutely fine. Nintendo's products are well made, so don't worry about that. Mine has had zero problems.

Back to the original question. Our target has DS's in all the time, check there. I doubt you will find any deals since they are so new. In March when the PSP comes out I expect that there will be some special deals on the DS as well as new colors. If you can wait till then, it might be worth it. A ton of games for th DS are coming out then as well.

My son got one for Christmas too (we got it at TRU) and his survived being dropped on the garage floor the other day.

Your best bet is probably ebay

just posted that there are some issues to be aware of is all. If I had not read about the bad pixel issue online on another board I would not have know that the small pin small dot right in the middle of my DS's(dear son not DS LOL)DS was a bad pixel.

I was thankful that I happened upon that post.
