What matters is like literally I asked a question…
HOW MANY VERSIONS OF THE DS DID THEY MAKE?
And why so many versions?

Are you asking the total number across all generations, revisions, colors, sizes, limited editions, variants, and regional models?
The answer is somewhere around 202+ last I checked. Only Nintendo knows for sure.
I found a couple sources attempting to catalog them all, but even they probably don’t have 100% coverage as I’ve found others pointing out a handful of specific versions that weren’t listed.

I didn’t ask years, I didn’t ask generations.
I simply asked for an overall count of how many versions, altogether. All years, all revisions, all models, simply count and give me a number, how many?
You folks know way more about the things than I do, to me they might as well all be e-waste at this point. Are there really that many versions that nobody can give me a simple fucking number?

Both fit in the toilet equally well.
You think I enjoyed wasting my time attempting to fix that shit?

Hey, at least it wasn’t infested with roaches.

You act like it wasn’t…
Hey, at least I was paid by the hour to waste my time attempting to fix it. Company dime, company time, and customer paid for the replacement screen even.
Sucks that I wasn’t successful, but damn, when the whole thing is literally rusted out, even the boss should have realized it was a hopeless cause. 🤷
