    does anyone know why the DSi is made of chalkboard material? i just can't stand the feel of them...my senses are to sensitive -.-"

    so does anyone know why it's like this?

    now for the real question...

    what's your opinion on the feel/material of it?

    do you...

    • like it?
    • love it?
    • hate it?
    • don't really care?

    now then...how the hell do i make a poll?..

    It feels so...fine. I have no other words....

    I have a case. That's worse. Feels like pure clothes.

    It's a matte finish and it's glorious.

    I use it to carry some games around (two games) and I always lose my stylus and that has a clip for it...

    Nah. I don't like plastic. Too slippery (I sweat really fast).

    Hardcore gamers, gloves burnt afterwards.
    DS Lite doesn't feel sticky to me...even with sweaty hands (or pasmado, as we Filipinos call it )

    I didn't say Sticky. I said Slippy.

    Easy answer, and I'm not reading what the rest of you said.


    It's because, like the psp, lack of grip and the grubby finger marks make the system look ugly (seriously, one finger print=screwed).

    So the combat this, they gave it a "matt" finish, a simerlar effect has been done to the ps3 slim.

    Not eye catching, but more appealing and somewhat safer in the long run (more grip with that finish).
