place to rent DS system?

I really want to play the new Castlevania game, but have no interest in buying a DS. Is there any place that rents the system? Thanks!

highly doubt you can rent a DS somewhere as people dont know how to take care of stuff

I have no idea.

That said, back in the day Blockbuster rented systems. I rented a virtual boy there at one point in time.

I agree. have you seen some of the demos at various places who have them? That being said, there are enough good games now to warrant a purchase.

I do not even want to think of what the touch screen would look like on a rental DS. Does Blockbuster even rent systems anymore. With game rentals being $8 system rentals have to be like $40.

thanks for the replies. guess I'm out of luck. This is probably a dumb reason not to want a DS (and please don't take it as a threadcrap, i love my SP and my Cube and am looking forward to the revolution) but the DS is just too big for me to take with me on the subway and on trips. Maybe I could buy it and ebay it quickly for a small loss.

Blockbuster (at least the one near me) does still rent systems and DS's.
