I hope you can find one. You might want to keep in mind TRU might have them again for Black Friday.

Good luck. I felt lucky to find a teal today. This is what DS wanted to buy DD for Christmas. He could not wait and gave it to her tonight so they could play together. She was thrilled and said she loved the teal one.

I went into my local TRU today and all that they had was teal. The sales clerk said that a lot of stores were sold out of them. If anyone wants a teal one, they had several at the TRU in Alpharetta, Georgia.

maybe I am just out ot the "loop" but what is a nintendog? Sorry for the stupid question just wondering!!

 

[dpayne1969]

i have access to teal as well for now if anyone needs teal.I called 1 target and they said they had grey.Not sure what bundle this is but she said she had teal and grey.I have been bidding all day on ebay only to get outbid.
I called all the way to a store that is 2 hrs away looking for 1.I was just hoping to find 1 for xmas from Santa.Her b-day is in March maybe by then they will be readily available.
For someone who has 1 already.I am concerned with scratching of the screen.Does the screen protector really work?
Thank,
Dee

I'm sorry you haven't been able to find a pink one yet...it seems you have been looking since they became available last month, and still no luck . If I run across one, I will buy it and contact you. If you already have one by that time, I'll post here for anyone else that wants it.

I had contemplated my options if I was unable to find the pink versions, and I found a seller on Ebay that has a cute Hello Kitty "skin" that can be applied over the DS. You may have to accept purchasing a teal version and possibly get a skin for it...though there aren't many "girlie" designs out there. Most skins I have seen run around $10.

I think the grey version the employee spoke of is the normal DS that has been out since day 1...though it shouldn't have had a Nintendog bundle. Mario Kart bundle is due out Nov.22, and it is red.

I'll keep a lookout! In the meantime, goodluck!

What is this

dpayne, did you try your local Target stores? I was able to snag a pink bundle this past Sunday 11/13. If I see another (I'm going shopping) I'll pick it up and will pm if successful. Good Luck!

How about Amazon.com ?
Or have you considered Ebay ?
Looks like the Amazon ones (which are connected to TrU) are sold out, but plenty on Ebay!

 

[dpayne1969]

What is this
IZ hooks up to your mp3 or other devices.He is robot looking thing.He changes colors and moves to the music.Its ugly but a neat little toy for older kids.I was surprised my son fell for this thing.LOL>
I have called every target as far as 2 hrs away.LOL>My local TRU said they may get some in this week.I am hoping to get 1 then.I have been bidding on ebay all week long only to be outbid.I am not gonna pay 200.00 for this item.It is only 149.99 plus tax.Ebay is great for sellers of these but not us buyers LOL.Cant blame them though.They are turning a nice profit on these items.

I finally found a Teal but can not find a pink anywhere. DD has that on her list as #1 now. I asked her for a second choice and she said it's okay Santa doesn't run out!!!!!!!!!!

might be stock shipment issue with retail stores, my local best buy, circuit city, target only have Teal bundle, a LOT of them.

just keep on looking and calling the stores, still plenty of time till xmas. with the current main craze on xbox 360, I don't think the pink bundle is on a lot of people's #1 list, maybe #2 though

also keep an eye out for Mario Cart DS Bundle, it comes with RED DS and racing stickers.

good luck on finding the pink one.

ps. for the truely desperate, you can buy a Japanese PINK DS for a bit more from few (reputable) oversea online stores. there are also black graphite and pearl white version that the US might never release. JP DS works with US games and they're 110V.

Seems like you're all having the same problem as I had today, trying to get hold of a pink 'bundle' for DD's bd!
I spent all morning looking online , to no avail, but managed to find a local electrical store that is having one transferred over for me
I went over to our local shopping centre (which is HUGE ) after buying it and everywhere was sold out

 

[dpayne1969]

Im so glad you found one.That is great news!!!Your daughter will be so happy you were able to get this for her.I am online now shopping for accessories to go with this now.LOL>I did hear from reviews that said to make sure you get the licensed screen protectors from Nintendo dont buy the cheaper brands cause it could mess up the screen on the system.Look for all reviews before buying any of the cheap screen protectors.

I bought a teal one at Circuit City but I really need it in pink. Would anyone out there be willing to do a trade with me? I bought mine before I read that the pink was only available at Traget and TRU. I thought that I could exchange it for a pink one when Circuit City got some in, but they won't even get them now that I have read that. So if you were already going to get a Teal one I would gladly exchange it with you if you just got a pink one. I have a very good standing w/ Ebay I will send you that if you need to see it. Also I would rather trade with another person with good standing on Ebay as well and I would need to check your Ebay standing as well. Please PM me if you are willing to do this. Thank you to anyone who can help me.

I am also looking for a pink one. I've called 2 TRU's daily and have checked targets in MD and VA with no luck. I can send paypal and have nearly 1000 + feedback on ebay.

Thanks in advance if anyone can help!

I'm so happy for you. I thought about all day and was unsuccessful in finding a pink DS. Congrats!
