Where can I buy something that will make it easier to hold my NDS. Im a 6'2" guy with basket ball player size hands, and after playing Castlevania:AoS for 3 hours, It hurts to open my hands.

Anything out there that can make the NDS a little easier to hold?
Unfortunately, these handheld systems are made for people with kid sized hands.

ebay should have a lot of these. failing that, you could get a ds phat :)

I have a blue DS phat, I forgot to mention that.
Ive just never played it this much until I got my super card working last week :)

head out to your local EBGames or Gamestop as they have the battery+grips combo for your Phat DS.  The ds snaps in place, and the feel is like a S-Type Xbox controller.

I use battle armor made by keysfactory and I swear by it, I will not touch an OG DS any other way. Any game that demands lots of button action makes great use of the bottom grips that battle armor has.

Do you have a link?

I ended up ordering the grips on ebay. No stores in my area carry any grips for NDS or NDSL
heres a link to the ones I go NDS Grips

These are what I used on my old dsphat.  The grips are awesome, very ergonomic, but they make it hard to use a thumb based stylus with normal size hands. It can be tough to reach the far left side of the touch screen. I had to make a custom thumb stylus to overcome this.

It comes with a wall adapter different from the stock charger. It charges the battery pack first and then the DS. It adds a few hours of game time but takes longer to charge. The hardshell case is very nice and has some spare room to store extras.

That's the one!  DSME's got it!  Those are pretty good as they allow an additional source of power, and the grip fits like a glove.

That is the first one that I found. I could not find it anywhere for sale. What stores or websites carry those? I couldnt even find them on ebay

EBgames and Gamestop carry the NDSL swing grips on their website.

Hi

Where can I buy that charger with out buying the grips (if I can.)

And what do you mean it charges the Ds first and then the battery? You can't charge the ds, only the battery inside it.

I feel your pain man, I'm 6'4" and have huge hands also and these things get very uncomfortable after an hour of continuous use. I rarely ever play with my Lite anymore because its even smaller than my phat.   :?

that doesn't look very comfortable.
