November 17, 2004 - Nintendo of America threw bang of a party at the exclusive club The Day After in Hollywood Tuesday night to celebrate the November 21 launch of its forthcoming handheld, Nintendo DS. The event, packed full of DS kiosks, food, drinks, and music, and gorgeous women in very little clothing, drew some of Tinseltown's brightest stars. And, it also drew some lowly IGN editors.
The party kicked off at 9:00pm and was still going strong after midnight. The popular band The Killers played exclusively for the several hundred attendees on hand, and when The Killers weren't rocking the house, DJ Spinna was thumping beats.
The list of celebrities that stopped by to try out DS was impressive. Everybody from Cuba Gooding Jr., Jesse Metcalfe, Zach Braff, and Orlando Jones to Taryn Manning, Anthony Keidis, Sarah Chalke, Rachel Hunter, David Gallagher, JC. Chasez, Donald Faison, Michael Vartan and Jerry Bruckheimer made an appearance.
'They look great! They are small enough to travel with and will help me pass away many hours when I'm on tour, especially on those long bus rides,' said pop star Pink about the DS.
Meanwhile, Nelly said he was 'proud to be the first [to receive the DS]!'
And Donald Faison added: 'Yo, this is the dopest thing I've seen in my life.'
'Since we announced the Nintendo DS, celebrities have been clamoring to be the first to get their hands on it,' says Reggie Fils-Aime, Nintendo of America's executive vice president of sales and marketing. 'The Nintendo DS was a huge hit due to its revolutionary features - the dual screen; touch-screen; a built-in chat function; and wireless communication.'

Playable DS games on hand included Metroid Prime Hunters: First Hunt, Super Mario 64 DS, Madden NFL 2005, Tiger Woods PGA Tour Golf, The Urbz: Sims in the City, Spider-Man 2, and Asphalt Urban GT.
We also had the chance to try out Nintendo DS' built in PictoChat software with a wide range of freaky Hollywood types. The software enables up to 16 people to enter a chat room wirelessly and then hold conversations with each other by both typing and drawing. As we chatted, the not-incredibly-bright and yet still beautiful friends-of-celebrities wrote intellectual statements like 'bitch!' and drew crude pictures of the sexual nature. That aside, the technology worked flawlessly.
Nintendo DS debuts November 21 for $149.99. The dual-screened portable comes with a free demo of Metroid Prime Hunters: First Hunt.
