Advantages: a wide range of support for many applications Disadvantages: screens are a but small
A fun system, compact to carry, easy to use, an excellent range of software available for more than just games.
I use my Nintendo primarily on the train to pass the time, and almost notice a community of like minded people (if we actually looked up once ion a while, we might even think to use the wireless function to play against each other)
Aside from games like James Bond and Star Wars, I also go for the more educational ones, including the Brain Training software and some language programs for Japanese and Spanish.

Advantages: Wide range of games, cheaper than consoles, portable and light weight. Disadvantages: Cannot play films, store or play music on the DS unlike the Sony PSP console

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Nintendo DS Lite
The NintendoDS 'Lite' is a great portable console that comes in a range of colours for anyone who likes games made by Nintendo and other game makers who are associate with them.
It has two screen's one touch and the other veiw only, this allows games to be more interactive and fun! The amazing thing about the NintendoDS 'Lite' is that its lighter that the orginal (funny enough lol) this makes it more compact and easier to carry about.
Games for the DS and also Gameboy advance games can be played on this console. Gameboy advanced games are inserted through the bottom slot on the NintendoDS. However they do not have touch screen interactivity.
NintendoDS allows users to use a touch screen which is different to any other console on the market, this makes games more fun and interactive in some cases and is a very appealing ...
