Advantages: Wi-Fi, wide range of games.
Disadvantages: Bad screen, not for 'hardcore' gamer.

The Nintendo DS is an enjoyable game system. There is a wide range of games for all ages and many online games for the player who wants to play against gamers around the world. I wouldn't recommend the Nintendo DS to 'hardcore' gamers due to it's graphics and controls.

Disadvantages: Under-rated as a console

When I first heard about the Wii, I thought to myself, WOW, an interactive console that i will be able to use at home without spending loads of money in an arcade.
