DS Lite!

Advantages: Fun, easy to use, great features, great games!
Disadvantages: Once you pick it up its hard to put down

...I own 2 DS Lites, my son has one and my partner does, they come in a great range of colours Black,White,Pink and the newer Blue. The touch screen on them is great, it makes the games so much more fun and with games like super mario you get mini games that all use the touch screen and they are great fun. As for the size of it well i carnt complain its small quite slim and light! hence the name. As for the age recomended on these my son has had one since last christmas and at the time he was 3! and after about a day learnt how to use it better than me lol. some games can be akward for smaller children but the likes of super mario, mario kart, shrek,cars ect are great for them. Its also very durable my son has dropped his on tiled floor, sat on it and god knows what else and its fine, its also very easy to keep clean. From...

DS Pink

Advantages: Fun for all the family
Disadvantages: None

...My daughter had been asking me for a pink DS for months since she had seen her friend playing on one, so I said to myself that I must get her one for Christmas. I bought mine early enough, I didn't realise they were going to be so hard to get hold of over the xmas period. Well it was what she wanted so I told all the family what she wanted. What you receive when you buy the DS is: 1 Spare Stylo, a charger,obviously the DS lite itself. You also get a manual. The DS has two screens which is quite cool really and DS actually stands for Dual Screen. The DS's arelightweight and measures about 10cm by about 5cm and is about 2cm in depth. The DS comes in a variety of colours from white, pink, black, silver. I have also noticed a few red and blue ones on ebay. There are so many games that are available. I have we have only got...

My DS

Advantages: The interaction
Disadvantages: The weight on the right hand side

...The Nintendo Ds console is one of those consoles which has got plenty of great ideas attached towards it. Firstly being designed by a world wide leader in gaming they have the ability to have a very unique console which would appeal to many people. You have a small console with 2 screens. The right hand side screen is a touch screen which you can use a stylus for in order to get more direction in where you are going. The right hand side though is very bulky and heavy and if your left handed usually games will tell you to swap hands so it caters for people who use either hand. You also have got the many features avaliable for the console, one is the size being so fantastic you can take this anywhere and the amount of gadgets you can attach to this item seem endless. You can create a sticker to cover the buttons on the console...

DS Delight

Advantages: too many to list
Disadvantages: none that ive seen so far

... How I Discovered It I knew about the DS like most other people, through word of mouth. I never had the desire to buy one until the beginning of 2008 when for some strange reason I set my heart on getting one. I think it was because I had seen the adverts for brain training on the tv a lot at this point, they were on almost every day. Then I played on my friends step-mums DS and that was it, my mind was made up, I had to have a DS, all I had to do was figure out how I was ever going to afford one. Price and Availability The DS Lite on it's own is generally £99.95 on it's own in most shops, obviously on some online shops/auction sites you can find it cheaper, but generally the cheapest I've seen it sell for is around £50. It usually works out cheaper to buy the DS as part of a bundle that includes one or more games...

Review of Nintendo DS Lite

Nintendo DS Lite

Advantages: Stylus system Touch Screen Gameboy Advance Compatibility Small game cartridges wireless play
Disadvantages: graphics games are limited

...I had one of these for about a year until I sold it off for an Xbox 360 (good decision). I found the DS Lite has very good wireless play for friends in the area with one of them. The chat rooms are also quite useful if you are on a trip with several friends. As I found out, on a ski trip, I spent about 3 hours on the DS racing about 10 other people in Mario Kart; its a brilliant way to pass a journey. However, equally, it is also fun offline. Although the games don't have as good graphics as the likes of the Xbox 360 or PS3. They are still not bad and they do have the one of a kind revolutionary stlylus-touch screen system. This allows you to draw out the actions on the touch screen of the DS in certain games. More credit is put to the DS lite since it is compatible with the older gameboy advance games (quite a few consoles don't allow...

Review of Nintendo DS Lite

Nintendo DS Lite

Advantages: Fantastic range of features, good variety of games.
Disadvantages: Battery life can be poor, graphics are a bit old school!!!

...the top. d) Play games using your voice with a voice recognition system and mic built in! e) Send messages and pictures to other people with DS's nearby using Pictochat. f) You can use it as an MP3 player by adding an SD card, AND watch videos on it! I think this is amazing really, although the graphics are a bit poo (but that can be excused). I thought I had bought a basic handheld game system and actually got quite an impressive piece of technology. Not to mention I managed to get it in my fave colour...PINK!!!...

Review of Nintendo DS Lite

DS Lite great!

Advantages: great fun and is a better version of the previous design.
Disadvantages: none

...The Nintendo DS lite is the most recent version of its kind and has been out for good while now. The older version was fatter an heavier, also the screen was not as clear and bright as this one. The reason I live this small design is because it's so accessible. Carrying it around is so easy and isn't a problem at all. There are a few colors to choose from, there are white, black, pink and blue, im not sure what others they have. They all have the same functions if you are wondering. Id personally go for the black one as I find it a bit more evil looking which to me just looks cool! I'd say the sound on this is a lot clearer and louder also which is a good improvement. if you like your little mini games then this is very good for that very thing as there are so many different games out now which are like mind games, puzzles...

Review of Nintendo DS Lite

Nintendo DS lite .

Advantages: Great design and good graphics
Disadvantages: None.

...expect. My daughter has dropped hers countless times and it is still in great condition with very few bumps and scratches. Its performance hasn't been affected in the slightest. When you buy it, I forgot to mention earlier, that you do recieve a wall charger for the DS. It charges fairly quickly, and the battery is full after abuot 3 hours. The DS can work for about a good 6 hours if not more after being charged which is a lot better than some of the other handheld consoles I have used. Some of the games have sound on them which you can alter the volume of. The DS provides clear and fairly loud sounds. You can also put ear phones into the DS if you're somewhere where you can't put the music on. You can buy lots of accessories for the DS now, from new stylus's to carry cases and stickers that look brilliant on them. The DS lite is now...

Review of Nintendo DS Lite

Nintendo DS Lite

Advantages: Great gaming, light and easy to use
Disadvantages: Battery life isnt great

...Product - Nintendo DS Lite Price - Got mine for £99 4/5 Battery quality - I find I can play for half a day without any problems 3/5 Design - Small and light 4/5 Durability - I haven't broke it yet 4/5 The Nintendo DS is the updated version of the classic GameBoy by Nintendo. While the GameBoy was huge, the DS does not seem to have the same fame due to the huge popularity of the Wii. However, for a pocket games console, I would say this is the best one on the market at the moment. The shape of the console is small enough to put in a handbag, pouch or a large pocket but big enough you wont lose it. The top screen (within the lid) is a simple viewing screen, while the bottom screen is a touch sensitive pad allowing you to interact with the attached wand (which easily stores within the side of the console). This screen gives...
