The Nintendo Power Mint Tin will keep your Nintendo DS Games Minty Fresh
To all of you that are near a mall with a Hot Topic store I command you to go there and purchase a tin of Nintendo Power Mints made by the Boston America company. Sure the tin was made in china and the mints sort of taste like chalk but the tin is shaped like an old school 8bit Nintendo controller and it is just about the right size to fit a plethora of Nintendo DS games.
This has a sturdy snap and keeps shut even when you throw it in the air and let it slam against the floor. It keeps your Nintendo DS game collection together and accessible in your backpack and it gives them a minty smell from the residual mint oder. The PSP can have it's Altoids tin case but the Nintendo DS is all about the Nintendo Power Mint tin baby.
Hell it is the only tin of mints with the Nintendo Seal of Quality and it is the only thing that you can buy from Hot Topic with out looking like a 14 year old wuss.

Nice. How do the mints taste?
But to be fair, you can also go into Hot Topic and ask for change for a fiver without looking too emo.
If you pull it off right.

The mints taste like minty flavored chalk.

I have actually bought one in Canada that looks
even more like the original controller, it has
black start & select buttons instead of the red ones
pictured here.
