HaHaHa That is a great question for me. My son has one he keeps in his hand at all times. I mean even when I ask him to help with grocery bags or to clean his room. He does everything one handed unless I say otherwise. So you can imagine how often it has been dropped or fallen and stepped on at times. It still works just as good as when he first got it. So durable YES. VERY DURABLE. Hope that helps. I'm buying my 4 year old one next month ;)

The Nintendo DS Lite is one durable handheld gaming system. I have own mine for many years now the battery stills runs great. I say the DS is durable because it was tortured by many children over the years dropped, kicked, throw at walls, etc. And it still lives with a few small cracks on the hinges and scratches on the cover.

Yes I believe so, I have had one for about 4 years in which time I have dropped it many times but it still works perfectly with no glitches and the quality of the games is still great. There are a few scratches on the touch screen for using the pen at first but you barely notice and it still works perfectly too. So in answer to your question the Nintendo DS Lites are extremely durable and worthwile for the amount of time you can get out of them.

I think so, depending on who's using it..... My 3 year old has broken 3 already :o( but my older boys have them and they are fine. So yes unless you have the spawn of satan lol lol!! He's not that bad really!

Nintendo DS is a very durable and good console, i own one myself, our family bought 1 for around a half year ago and we got 6 children but still it looks like new. The only problem is the stick that comes with, it's very easy too loose! But that's really all i CONFIRM that it's very durable =D

It depends on the colour. White ones are prone to breaking rather easily (predominantly around the hinges), but as long as you are throwing them around any other colour should be fine. My black-and-red one certainly takes a slightly unfair amount of damage by being knocked around in my bag all day and works absolutely fine :)

I have had mine for three years now and it still works well despite a few knocks. The pens are prone to being lost and the edges can get knocked and chipped and the screen gets a bit smudgy from fingers, especially if younger children get their hands on it! Other than that mine works exceptionally well, the actual design of the product makes them quite sturdy and durable.

Yep their durable. The case is well built and the screen will last forever if your careful! You can also buy a case if you're worried.
