DS, DS Lite, or DSi

[Tyler]

I have a DS Phat and a DS Lite.

I don't plan on spending money on the DSi though. I just don't see the use for it.

 

[Smarty9911]

I'm getting a Nintendo DSi, Gameboy Advance SP, and PSP 3000 when the DSi comes out.

 

[reedstr16]

I currently have a DS, and I'm planning on buying the DSi when it comes out. I just want to know which one you have?

that is the same as me! i have a ds phat and am planning on dsi

Regular DS all the way. DS Lite was a money making scam just like the DSi. They don't excactly feature any groundbreaking improvements...just some small fixes, and a few extra downloadable content. Nothing worthy of spending $175 for.

Wii has an internet browser as well, and DS can only go online with the web browser through Wi-Fi. So that pretty much destroys it's "go online anywhere" feature because wi-fi is only available in a few places. So all that leaves now is the camera. Spending $175 for a crappy DS camera, eh? DSi has no GBA support also...what a ripoff.

I have DS and DS lite and I'm getting a DSi when it comes out! =]

How does it feel to be a scam victim? Nintendo sure did play you like a sucker. By buying all three of those extremely similar products, you have wasted about $450-$500. And for what? A thinner DS with a brighter screen? I just don't understand how people can throw away their money on items that they already have.

You're right... You wouldn't BELIVE how many times I've screwed myself over a FREAKING GAME SYSTEM! Cause Nintendo has a way with targeting LITTLE KIDS that will beg their parents till they get one (P.S. I'm NOT a little kid, just makin a point)!

With all that is happening to our economy, people just keep buying all the nNintendo crap!

you can also play music on it from an SD card and play around with it :X it also has a bigger screen

why does everyone care about the GBA slot so much? Advance - DS Lite have it

i do agree with the scamming though (ds lite > wasn't there something like that with the SP?)

 

[Smarty9911]

As I said, just buy a used GBA SP.

 

[Smarty9911]

I just can't wait till the 14th. At my library we get to help out old people setup their computers, laptops, iPods, etc. and we get a Wii! I already have one so I'll sell it. We'll also get free snacks and a $10 gift card for the store of our choice.

 

[Smarty9911]

Can anybody here translate Japanese? I might need some of you to translate for me.

 

[Ron Ronaldo]

I have the original DS in dark blue. Man, that thing has been through a lot and I love it so. <3

edit: You could try a free translator. Not the best, but you might get the gist.

like www.freetranslation.com

 

[Smarty9911]

Oh thanks. I'm trying to impress my Japanese teacher. <_<

 

[youkieran]

pm me if you know when the dsi will come to aus

 

[Smarty9911]

April 2 is the release date, AUD$300 is the price, black and white are the colors, and here is a link to make this information valid. You get it before Europe and North America, but you have to pay a price.

 

[youkieran]

or my bday is on 4/20 i see if my mum will get it

 

[Smarty9911]

My birthday is on May 20. I'll buy it, because I need some accessories and a new GBA SP, maybe a PSP 3000.

 

[Smarty9911]

Now I know I'm getting a PSP 3000!

 

[bananaoracle]

I just have the regular original DS.

DS phat is way better than DS lite. I have a DS phat, and hope to keep it with my DSi.
