I got my 3DS before there were any special editions or whatnot, and there were only the two simplistic colors of blue and black. Since I already had a teal DSi, I got the Black/Grey 3DS, and I'm pleased with my decision. My 3DS is my baby. I'm really protective of it because both my DS Lite and DSi have had various issues regarding hinges and buttons. My 3DS was apparently from one of the "buggy batches" where the hinge gives more than it should, so I'm extra careful about that. I've made a lot of observations about where exactly the weak point appears to be, so I've been taking extra good care of it ever since I first noticed it a week or so later. That says a lot because I'm usually [unintentionally] rough on my games. I think a lot of the care also comes from the fact that I paid for a fair portion of it, despite it being a birthday present for myself back in 2011. Not only that, but the black color is really sleek. I polish it a lot--with a glasses cleaning cloth I don't use--because of the glossy finish it has (which means a lot more if you know that I rarely clean my glasses). I love my 3DS. <#
