So I might be buying the Nintendo DS this month or even next 2 days.... so i need fast replies. I'm thinking which colour to buy. Currently the colours I'm able to buy in my country is Black White Pink. But I don't want pink so... Obvisouly I might buy a full body kit replace to make it Crimson/Ash ds looking. So everyone... Which to buy the White or Blaxk.

I like white because it is so glossy simple and smart,

but I heard it gets dirty and messy and fingerprints are easier to have them on a white.

Thew black is cooler but I need to know if it happens the same....

Just in terms of colours, white is more clean and simple while black is sleek. However, in terms of the actual DS, white will tend to yellow and get dirty whereas black will get fingerprint-y. If I didn't already have pink, I'd go black.

I had a white, it wasn't very dirty except there was definetely some junk stuck in the sides of the shell were the pieces come together. I currently have a black and you don't really see any dirt. However you can see fingerprints.

Fingerprints are much easier to clean than dirt stuck in the plastic. Get black, sleeker and stays clean longer.

Yes, you can clean them off. However, unless you wear gloves, you will only put more fingerprints on it while you clean it. Its a vicious cycle really.

I'd go with black if I were you, but have you heard of the silver ds coming out next month? It's the closest color to something in between black and white.

Black for sure, think about it huh? you have a very beautiful black ds lite and you can put your finger prints anytime! how fun is that?

Its screaming this is mine! my finger prints, my ds lite!.

anyway enough nonesense black is better since white tends to go yellow over time.

I have onyx and everybody says it can show the fingerprints but mine doesn't show fingerprints and on white it can get dirty and turn a little darker and show scratches so I would definitely go with onyx

Yes you can, I have a black DS lite and I clean it off all the time to keep looking shiny and sleek. Yeah I know I'm a nerd:) (not really haha)

I would say to get black because cleaning finger prints is a lot easier then trying to get some small tool down in the corners of a white ds risking breaking a piece off of your DS or not being able to get the dirt out.

Yeah that usually happens if you have small scratchs on your screen, they don't be noticed when the DS is on, but you can get bad scratches on your screen that when you turn on the DS you can see a sort of rainbow colour line where the scratch is too and it can be really annoying.
