It has been meticulously noted that, for no apparent reason, the little intro blinkety-bling sound that compliments the Nintendo DS logo at startup, changes to a chingety-ching noise that sounds somewhat higher pitched.
In the event that this happens, bear note that it is, in fact, the first sign that your Nintendo DS is going to brick itself, due to corrupt firmware and/or a mishap involving the transfer of virii to your handheld via WiFi without you knowing.
There is no known remedy for this. After six more start-ups, your top DS screen will flicker abnormally and you'll smell a burning odour coming from the battery compartment of the Nintendo DS. Soon after, your DS will make good use for a paperweight or an oddly-shaped frisbee.
Alternatively, you may wish to see if it's your birthday. Not because you'll need someone to get you a DS, since its firmware is corrupt, but rather because you realize that what I said above is a complete and utter lie, and, in reality, this is how your DS says "Happy Birthday" (i.e. chingety-ching).
In the words of Alan Turing, the great mathematician:
"A computer would deserve to be called intelligent if it could deceive a human into believing that it was human."
Or, in this case, into believing that something is utterly wrong with it, based on the tone of it's blingety-bling.
Hats off, Ninty.
