The world's ugliest DS Lite

The world's ugliest cell phone may have found the perfect mate in this customized DS Lite from Japan found by Akihabara News.

There's certainly no shortage of places willing to uglify the gaming handheld for a price, as even Paris Hilton has made clear. But like the aforementioned "Serendipity" phone, this one looks as if it could have been done as a pre-school art project with some plastic charms and Elmer's glue.

The name of the outfit offering its unfortunate services should have been a tipoff: "King Deco."

...glitch or fanboy up there?

"If you have something unique, the world and its wife will try to wrestle it from you, even if they have little understanding to its true value"

Honestly, the general human mind has been reduced to oatmeal, with the only think interesting it is sex, drugs, rap, and shiny things.

This is WHY someone invented the word 'fugly'. Indeed we can say what we mean without being crass about it. This DS Lite is in dire need of being placed at the business end of a fully loaded, double-barreled 12ga. Remington pump-action.

Well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder - and vanity is in the hands of those with money to blow on it.
