Duty free ds lite

Not sure where to post this thread, but here's hoping someone can help! Is it possible to buy a Nintendo DS lite in duty free (is it called that these days?!) and if so, is the saving worth it? I am after a pink one with the brain training games, although I know I will probably have to buy that seperately. I am flying from LPL-AMS.

Thanks in advance!:rotfl:

    Yes you can buy a ds in duty free I went to Malta from Luton and they had one in there they were around £80 so not that much of a saving really not sure if they had games in them.

    You dont need to buy any games for the DS, it is possible to buy a memory card then download as many games as you want for free as ds-roms!
