DIY Handheld Atari Game

Whenever I leave the house, I generally take my DS along to keep me entertained. If I don’t remember to grab it, I at least have my trusty iPhone, which isn’t bad for gaming in short spurts.

These guys probably aren’t the first people you think of when it comes to PC cases, but they’re definitely worth a look. This Guardian 921 case isn’t one of their high-end models, but still has the looks and features that will make most gamers happy. Hit the jump for my full review.
