Do these dual-screened creations look as good as their console-based predecessors when applied to cushions? Maybe not, but they're still pretty adorable (or at least that's how I feel about them).
One quick note before you critique them yourselves: the DS Lite designs, in particular, should be considered works in progress. I may eventually put a bit of a border around the edge of each of them to give them some more visual heft, for instance. Or, I may make it appear as though they've been paused mid-game by swapping out their currently gray screens for something that looks like, say, Tetris DS.
For now, though, both of the DS Lite designs that can be seen below will remain borderless and powered down.
Here's how the pink DS Lite design looks after being applied to a cushion (by Cyrus) and then plopped onto the floor of the busiest-looking living room you've ever encountered. (It's near the lower left-hand corner, by the way, in case any of you are having a tough time spotting it.)
The 3DS designs I came up with were a bit more successful, I think. I especially like the Midnight Purple one, of course, although the Flame Red one is pretty nice, too.
I know the details of the Flame Red 3DS design appear overly muted in the screenshot above, but I promise you they're far more evident in-game.
Finally, here's a shot of the Midnight Purple 3DS sitting on the floor of my male New Leaf character's robo-themed bedroom.

Very cool. I like the Flame Red 3DS in particular.
You're obsessed, and I love it.
love the flame red too
Thanks, Terry! I had to go with Flame Red because I own one. Plus, it's just a nice color, isn't it?
You ain't just whistlin' Dixie, Justin. Not only am I obsessed with making designs, but I'm obsessed with the game, period. Haven't thought about another game--well, except Attack of the Friday Monsters--since it came out, really. I. NEED. HELP! :P
Thanks, Tatsui! And here I thought everyone would "oooh!" and "aaah!" over the Midnight Purple one. Maybe that's because I not-so-secretly wish I owned one of those suckers :)
Yes, and that's the color I own as well. I wouldn't mind owning the new black XL to match the rest of my gaming kit, but I can't justify buying a new machine.
Ah, I didn't realize that, Terry. We're Flame Red Twins then :)
I understand wanting the Black XL, BTW.
I'm actually a bit torn on which 3DS I prefer. I love the portability of the OG 3DS, as well as its crisper screen, but I like the feel and larger screens of the XL.
Guess it's a good thing I have one of each ;)
I passed my OG 3DS to my niece, so I can visit if I get nostalgic. Usually two minutes with that tiny screen when I'm adding eShop funds for her is enough to sober me up. lol
These are gorgeous, Bryan!! I definitely need a pink DS lite in my house!
Yeah, the tiny screens suck in a lot of ways. I do like that games look more crisp/clean on them than they do on the XL's gigantic screens, though.
Thanks, Anne! I look forward to seeing it in there at some point :)
