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.

...The Sound The sound on the PS2 has a lot of capability but they have been ruined by a large number of games which have a terrible soundtrack and it makes the Playstation 2's sound procceser sound bad. Range of features Other than ability to play games on the playstation 2 which is what most people will buy it for, it also provides you with a high quality (but annoying) DVD player. However, unlike the more modern Games Consoles you can't access ... Read review
