Is DS Lite Prejudiced Against Gamers With Giant Hands?
Yes – that’s if you ask the Nintendo section editor of Pocket Gamer. In the course of doing his job, which means playing games on the DS Lite for hours (he gets paid for that?), he ends up with nasty looking red bruises on his palms. Something he doesn’t get with the regular DS. The condition is worse when he’s playing fast-moving action games that use the shoulder buttons a lot. He says his palm takes a couple of days of not playing to heal. He thinks the DS Lite was designed for smaller Asian hands and not for people with palm that spread wide enough to cup Richard Simmon’s butt (not that anyone would want to). Or maybe it’s how he holds the DS Lite? Anyway, having freakishly small hands, we are happy to report this has never happened to us!
