Nintendo DS headset pre-order sale at Amazon

by Eric Caoili { Mar 28th 2007 at 4:30PM }

With the US release of Pokemon Diamond and Pearl approaching -- both versions supporting VoIP communication before, during, and after battles -- we've given the idea of purchasing Nintendo's official DS headset some serious thought. Having a first-party alternative to the DS' less-than-exemplary microphone and speakers would be nice, but we're not thrilled about having to spend $14.99 to purchase one.

Amazon makes our decision an easy one, cutting the headset's pre-order price down to $9.99. How are we supposed to turn down a deal like that? If you add an item or two to your cart, you'll also be eligible for free shipping! Why not pick up one of the many DS games that the site has on sale? Check out the list of Amazon's $24.00 titles past the post break.

Unrelated but:
I remember back when I would play Red and Blue some people would name their Raichu "Charizard" or their Mewtwo "Magikarp" to fool people into switching to pokemon of the wrong type. Could you still do that?

What other games coming out soon will utilize this peripheral?

Those were the days. I remember doing that to my friend (thought I was so clever) granted it was a one shot deal, since we played all the time.

But, I wouldnt see why not. You should/can name your Pokemon right? so my Dialga is now Garchomp. Should be good for a laugh or two.

Magikarp/Gyrados have always been named Sushi for me. I like stupid/silly names for Pokemon.
