I went around to a couple stores today and looked everywhere online for a pink Nintendo DS Lite with no luck! UGHHHH! It's frustrating! EBay is too expensive right now. I wonder why there is such a shortage. In googling, I found out there is a rumor of a new DS with a bigger screen.

That rumor is incorrect.

Good, because I would hate to buy it and then find out a new version is coming out like next month.

Yeah, my fiance and i had the same trouble getting her neice a pink a gameboy advance a while ago. Pink was sold out clear across the board, online and off. What we did was call Wal-mart every couple nights at about 12am or 1 hour before the store opened and asked if they got any in. Finally we scored a yes and went and 20mins before the store opened. Obviously you dont have to call that often like we did. That might actually piss them off (i'm sure people call about the Elmos all the time). But if you are up early one morning just [b854e7e5546]call and ask to be transferred to electronics.[/b854e7e5546] Even if the store is closed, Wal-mart will still transfer the call and someone will pick up and answer your question.

That isnt much, but it's the only advice I have.

Try www.Buy.com ;).
I remember purchasing a Pink DS Lite from that site for one of my users.

Also, try Circuit City (I went ahead and found the link itself) http//www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Nintendo-DS-Lite-Game-System/sem/rpsm/oid/160203/catOid/-16485/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do .

Thanks for your help. Circuit City doesn't have it, and Buy.com is temporarily out of stock unfortunately.

What is G4? I went to G4.com but I don't think that is what you mean.
