Bling Watch: Crystal-studded DS Lite

Wednesday 30-Aug-2006 11:30 AM Japanese? Got 200 quid to spare? Then pimp up your handheld with Swarovski diamonds
3 Comments
It's been all quiet on the bling front the last few months, but as the summer draws to a close and budding-ganstas need something to do when it's too dark and cold for drive-bys, pimped-up handhelds are once again rearing their ugly, diamond-studded heads.

This latest piece of ghetto-gaming memorabilia is a DS lite laden with world renowned Swarovski crystals, which is yours from Japanese designer Tikko for the handsome sum of 45,000 yen (£202). As you can see from our pictures, those crazy far-eastern fashion-types have decided to embed the top erm, 'flap' with the green and dark crystals, and although we're not very keen on the bling-ed DS's bold new look, the colour scheme has given us a strange craving for After Eight mints.

Stay tuned to CVG for more of the very latest news on pimped-up consoles. We're off to break open our piggy banks.
