Pure genius

Strengths: Long battery life.Lite weight(compared to psp)

Weakness: no weaknesses to me.

I've been a Nintendo fan ever since I played mario brothers for Nintendo.It's really cool how they have the dual screens and to top it off, the lower one is a touch screen.I also like it how Nintendo makes gaming experience different every system they come out with.The Nintendo Wii looks unique to other sytems too(im gonna get that instead of the PS3). Nintendo for life!

Amazing

Strengths: Durable, easy interface, 2 screens, sound quality, touch pad does not scratch easily, built in battery, WiFi

I bought many games like wairo ware touched, that game requires you to use the...

I am not a "gamer". I am a parent and gave it to my child as a birthday present. If anyone wants to make some money, start mass-producing the Nintendo DS styllus. Really. What were they thinking? ONE styllus for a children's game? Having a second spare one that can clip into the body would have been a better design. They added a clever plastic tab on a stap handle you can attach, but my child...

Nindento DS

Strengths: good battery life, light weight

Weakness: a little bulky to carry around

DS Lite will be worth it if you plan to travel with this thing. I have only used it in home so far. Once I did bring it on a car trip which was fine, but otherwise it is a little bit of a pain to carry around (unless you got cargo pants that have pockets big enough to carry it). The screens can be hard to see in brighter weather as well (actually, damn near impossible in a car unless you have...
