This made me feel old...
As a huge Nintendo fan... I didn't even get the DS at launch. I was having fun with my GBA and there were still games coming out for it. Even though most of my friends at the time were into games, we had zero interest in the DS. The launch was very uninteresting, albeit at the time I thought the games were technically impressive. It wasn't until winter 2015, after Mario Kart came out, that I decided to pick it up. Glad I did though as it's one of my favorite gaming devices ever. I never upgraded from the original fat model. That thing is still kicking.
I don't know how old you are, but I was in high school when it released. I wasn't paying any attention to the system until years later, so I had no idea this was a picture that made its rounds. =P
