Treasure Hunt - NDSL

I cant really describe how long I have been dreaming of getting an NDSL. In fact, it appeared to be part of a leisure conversation with someone, then all of the sudden it grew up into a burning desire that pushed me towards the NDSL hunt on last Sunday in Ikano. (Don't ask me why Ikano. Thanks.)

First I approached the shop located at level2 right opposite the Popular book store. The place looked decent, and so did the boss and his nasi lemak. NDSL + R4 + 1gb memory card + screen protector + some free downloaded games, he offered it at rm800 after discount, or rm860 for the package with m3real + 2gb memory card. I expected to pay only rm750 max for the toy. But what's funny, I almost buy from the guy despite of the price :D

After taking lunch in RedBox, I then went to another shop in Cathay, which sells only console at rm560, and he doesn't sell any flashcard. The treasure hunt came to the real end after watching a movie, when I finally decided to leave the treasure for another week, so that I can get myself calmed and do further survey.

According to them who contributed a lot in telling me all these, rm560 is kind of reasonable considering the location of the shop, in relative to rm530 for Lowyat. And of course you can definitely find much cheaper price in Lowyat, but make sure you open your eyes as wide as possible against the hidden trap.

I was targeting on m3real previously, but some told me that DSTT and EDGE load games much faster than m3. This means the choice is between either of these with each card at around rm120~rm150. There are also quite a few of the websites that they recommended to order the card from. The best solution for me is probably to purchase the console myself at the shop, and order the card online. I think I'll go for EDGE for its better user interface. Any more contribution is all welcomed.

过了这么久

还活着。 世界变了很多。 我们走在后面了,思想上和体力上,都要给年轻人让路了。 酒喝不起来,饭也不怎么吃得下了。路也不能走太远,视觉也就眼前那一点距离。 回想起年轻时的岁月,那时的我们意气风发,总觉得世界在掌心里转动。夏日的午后,我们在酒吧畅谈理想,谈论着要如何攀爬如何荣耀。那时...
