You can Google Nintendo DS logos and a bunch of pictures will come up. Then copy and print an edible image.

:-)

thanx for replying, but don't you have to have a special printer with edible ink and get some rice paper.  Sorry to sound so daft, but this is all new to me and as the group name suggests, i'm self taught :D
Sorry - yes you need to have an edible printer.
I work in a local bakery and "most" of them would not make an edible image of a "licensed design".  There is plain "edible image paper" that you can purchase at you local craft store.  If you can draw or know someone  else who can, make your own pictures for the screens by using edible foodwriter markers.

You could see if any of the local bakeries had video game images that they can sell. If you can't get the logo at least you could find a video game that could be playing on it. I know at the store I work at we sometimes sell just the edible images to people.

Another idea would be to find a picture and trace it onto wax paper with sharpie. Flip the wax paper over and use different colored frosting to basically color the picture in. Then freeze the picture. When it is hard enough remove it from the freezer and flip it onto the cake. Then peel away the wax paper.

Thanx ladies. Gr8 ideas. X ;)

 Amanda,  don't know if you have a Giant around you but you can take pics to them and they can copy it for you on to rice paper. That's what I did for a marine cake. I hope this helps.

Amanda, What I have done in the past, not that I like to, but I have googled the picture printed and laminated it. And put it on the cake. I really like everything to be edible but in a pinch I have done this.
