Then you haven't had good raspberries. Ripe raspberries are much sweeter than strawberries.Strawberries; Raspberries are just too bitter for me, lol!

Neither 'cos Strawberries and raspberries aren't really berries in the botanical sense.
They are derived from a single flower with more than one ovary, making them an aggregate fruit.
True berries are simple fruits stemming from one flower with one ovary and typically have several seeds.
Tomatoes fall into this group, as do pomegranates, kiwis and—believe it or not—bananas
(yeah, I know... too much time on my hands
)
Is this some unlicensed GBAchef I see? Also despite CannonFoddr's attempt I will not be getting into the berries, epignyous, compound and drupes debate.
A good version of either will beat a bad version of the other. Neither are the superior form of berry as a whole either -- blue, black, logan, elder all do various things far better. As a rule of thumb I prefer the northern European varieties of these berries -- those coming from Spain, Portugal and various parts of Africa do not do so well for me as those from various parts of the UK or the Nordic countries in my opinion -- the souther European stuff tends to be larger but not taste quite as strong.
Raw. A reckon a good raspberry, they seem to last longer in the fridge as well.
Jam. Raspberry again if I am not making it myself. Can't decide if I have made it myself.
Cheesecake. Raspberry I reckon.
Frozen/dried. Raspberry.
In jelly (UK definition), I am going with strawberry here.
In a pastry case, whether that makes it a tart, a flan (note again it is something of a UK specific term where other places might call what I would know as a flan a crème caramel) I will leave as an exercise to the others reading), I am going with strawberry again. Though a very well made raspberry one will doubtless edge it out.
In booze... never tried any raspberry booze come to think of it. Never tried a strawberry one I liked.

Good strawberries are better than raspberries, raspberries are better than bad strawberries. Good strawberries are very hard to find. So on average I'd say I prefer strawberries

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1 -

They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."+2 -

anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media+1
if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them -
@
BigOnYa:
Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
