DSi Discussion

The DSi released in North America yesterday. Who got one? What color?
I'm getting mine soon, in black.

Strype got one, ya? Get him to join so he can talk about it.

I personally don't plan on getting one, DS lites are all I need. ... Maybe in due time, though. If I have enough unwanted games to return, I could probably buy one at little to no price. Gotta keep one DS lite though, gotta have that GBA slot for DPP.

You do know there will be DSi exclusives right?

Yes, but I forgot.

The only thing that'd compell me to get one now, is if Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 days was going to be on the DSi, or if the next pokemon gen will be exclusive for it. The later won't happen any time soon, and the former definatly won't happen. So, no for now. Maybe some time in the future, just maybe. ... Or should I say, for the long run, eventually yes.

I want one so bad, but our family is tight for money.. Stupid australian visas. I was planning on selling my original DS for it, but I don't have my Gba anymore, and need the slot. And even tho mum never uses her DS, she won't let me sell it or use it. And I paid for it! D:<

Saw one for £100 on eBay
It's $160ish here. I've got roughly $2,000 in mah account. Simple math problem I guess, I just need to find time...

That's just lame... Wait, when the hell did parents start buying consoles for themselves?? That's... odd. Aaaanyways, if she's not using it and you essentially paid for it, the decision to sell it should be entirely yours. Rediculous parents...

Gah, I very much need a DSi. Hell, a normal DS/lite would even work. Mine broke about a month ago, and I still have yet to finish Platinum. >:/

I like a regular DS better than a DS lite. But that's just me

Yeah i still carry my 'fat' DS. Working fine

I don't know anyone else who'd say that. >.>; DS Lite has better light settings, a more comfortable size, a better stylus, better button positioning, etc. etc. Probably just plain better quality, too.

Plus, the power button isn't directly over the d-pad so you don't accidently press it and lose your save data.

Haha iv nearly done that soo many times, but if u realize before its to late and pull your finger off, its all good

I've played both, but the regular DS just seems better. I'm weird... I know

You know me, don't you?

Ah, you prefer the normal DS too? Interesting... I don't get why anyone would, though. The DS Lite seems improved in every aspect to me, but meh. Everyone to their own.

After buying myself a DS Lite, I find them about even. I like the buttons on a DS better, but I like the better screens on the DS Lite. The size doesn't bother me, because if someone would find it to be too heavy, they are a true wimp.

May I add I've never used one.
But, the gba games sticking out piss me off, and the fact that it's so thin.. Hard for my hands to get used to.
And.. I dunno.

But I think it's funny when my stepsis who has a DS lite plays my DS, and can't find the stylus. XD

I know that's gonna bother me, when I start playing GBA games again, it's bothering me even though I don't use it.

Lol. I do that with my friend's DS. Except when I go to look for it, they don't have one, so I feel even stupider.

That didn't bother me at all, really. I actually liked it more since it makes the games easier to grip, as small of a fact as it is. I will admit it's a bit more ugly, but I still believe the DS Lite is improved in every way.

Actually, arent the speakers on the narmal DS louder than those of the DS Lite?
