    The DS Lite Contest

    dslitegiveaway.jpg

    As promised here's your chance to win your very own DS Lite. Brian Ashcraft is standing by to go stand outside a store in Japan for you.

    So here are the rules for the giveaway:

    I ve constructed a challenging little game, so be warned—you re going to have to put some effort into winning. I call it a trivia scavenger hunt. If you're an old-school reader of Kotaku, you know all about it. If not, read on.

    All you have to do is read the question below, search Kotaku using our faithful search engine and find the answer. The news item with the answer will have the next clue at the bottom in italics. The final clue, number 11 to be exact, will be a question about Nintendo lore.

    To be entered in the contest send an email to kotakucontest@gmail.com with the word Contest in the subject line followed by the final answer. So your subject line would be: Contest XXX with the Xs being the correct answer to the final trivia question. In the message body put the headlines to all of the correct news stories that led you to the final question.

    Keep in mind that ALL the questions, except the final one, must be found within Kotaku s webpages. The final one can be answered with Google, your friendly neighborhood encyclopedia or a friend.

    I know this is tricky, but you are playing for a brand new DS Lite straight from Japan, where it goes on sale on March 2.

    One entry per a household, please, and no sharing answers. The contest will run through March 2. I ll randomly draw a winner from the people who answer the question properly. I ll announce the winner on March. 5.

    So to kick things off, here s clue number one:

    What's the name of the group that decided to act out old-school video game Paperboy and catch the thing on video?
