If there's one thing I hate about the DSlite it's the square edges at the bottom of where you hold it.

I mean it doesn't help the the surface is super flat.

This poor part of my hand (not mines By the way, just one I found in google)

Has to be jabbed into the damn edges I've tried holding in different ways but the only way I can actually use the thing and press the buttons is in such a position to get the part of my hand jabbed into those damn edges.

Now it might be that my hands are too big or small or Nintendo weren't thinking straight when making this, a terrible design flaw.

There's that but at least it's not as bad as the DSlite that those !@#$ squared edges dig in just after a few minutes.

lol.... my main concern would be getting a proper keypad/keyboard for either for my long periods of extended typing but whatever floats your boat or comes first I guess XD...

maybe get rubber edges or something...
they probably don't round because it might look too similar to another device (looks at psp)

you know how companies want to set their product apart from other companies'

Yes, maybe Nintendo didn't think about people who would play games that don't require any of this stylus gimmicky spoon.

Lol...
but think of the old people market waiting to be conquered...
and the newer generations have no money so fck them...

make the device recognizable
something grandpa can say "Yes! That is the cool thing I saw on the tv"

then grandpa with his millions of dollars of pension from being drafted and serving in the war can throw his money away at this magical distinct device of wonders

They used the same strat as they did on the original NES controller!

The old phat DS was much more comfortable to hold, I mean the edges were still squared shaped but at least the surface wasn't super flat where the surface gradually curves down as it got to the edges.

Well, I can't really say, never used real NES in my life, it pretty much died the year I was born.
The wiimote held sideways on the other hand is uncomfortable to hold but not painful like the DSlite.
