if you had the pink Nintendo DS, you’re a baddie now.

O sentido parece um pouco irônico.
Obrigado pelas sugestões!

durão


Explanation:
Sug.

Sug.

O Nintendo DS já é bem antiguinho, então provavelmente é alguma "brincadeira" com o modelo rosa da época, falando que, se você tinha na época, hoje em dia é um "cara durão" — por mais controverso que esse papo de cores possa ser!

Entretanto, se é para um público feminino, eu imagino que a sugestão de "menina má" seja a mais adequada.

um cara da pesada


Explanation:
Este parece ser o real sentindo da expressão, pois foi dito em sentido jocoso quanto a você ter um Nintendo DS

A subtle and humorous power move on behalf of the writer. The "period" part (omitted) seems to give away the idea that said poster actually had a pink NDS and is calling upon others to revel in this "universal truth" -- while also empowering the ones that did have it (see Yuri Beira's explanation).
