the only kinds i'm aware of are the nintendo manufactured kinds, the DMG-04 and DMG-07 accessories...  those are the cables which have the internal 5V.

its possible.  any of the regulated 5V solder points really...  link cable included.  shouldn't be an issue.

they've always been this price, unless i made a typo at some point tongue

hopefully not too much longer!  just waiting on samples, twiddling thumbs...

you should add some clear silicon start/select buttons, and illuminate them too wink

that looks wonderful!

(the dmg cases we're doing will have accompanying matching screen covers in the same shades as the plastic (offered as a bundled kit), and silver/gold/sparkles are some of the effects i'm testing out (both shiny and matte).  so, they'll be available somewhere, hopefully soon.  maybe two places wink  just wanted to mention since its relevant.  back to your thread)

they should use a different type of battery while they are at it..

thought a LOT about this. 

getting a li-ion battery square made, or using another brand or a more generic shape, would require the purchase or making of the packs themselves.  don't want to do that, not with a different shape.

changing to a different battery type wouldn't be possible except for 9V, and I don't want to get into changing around the power supply pcb or anything.  so, just as a rule i'd need to stick with ~6V, no extra parts.

which means AA for any practical purpose...  one which anyone could hop into the store and purchase.

that doesn't mean that rechargeable, socketed, li-ion packs aren't a possibility, or something similar.  but, they can be designed to fit into any existing shape.  its much easier to get the cells wrapped and circuitry/socket done later, than now.  that approach should fit these completely.

all-in-all, i would have loved outfitting them with a tiny laptop battery or something nuts.  at least a means which is easily rechargeable and form-fitting.  and long-lasting.  but, then there is the cost, and ways it can be done by still using the AA shape and this layout.  more easily in fact.  its something i've gotten quotes for when thinking about this, but a complete li-ion 'square' that snaps in won't work out hmm  they've been made in the past as well, used to carry some in the shop in fact.

just my thoughts on the battery deal.  i feel you sentiments though.  in an effort to keep this 100% user friendly on the other end, AAs make more sense overall.  i thought so at least.
