"The Nintendo DSI is a great product. I think that Nintendo Co. really did a great job creating this console. Adding two cameras was a great idea. I mostly use the camera overall everything else. The Nintendo DSI recorder is very fun. Recording your voice and disgusing is one of the best applications on the DSI. I also really like the Nintendo DSI Point System. I think it is a smart idea to be able to trade in your points for a new application. The DSI Store (where you trade in points for new apps) has apps like Mario games, Master of Illusions, Wario SNAPPED, and Pyro. I have downloaded 4 apps. Plus the Internet App is free. You could also use an SD Card to download pictures and songs on your DSI. My cons on the DSI are that on the Instruction Manuel shows example pictures of people, these pictures look high quality and like they were taken with a digital camera. I was pretty excited about this part of the DSI, but once I used the camera, the pictures did not turn out as good as they were on the Instruction Manuel. That really dissapointed me. There is another attraction on the DSI Camera where you could change the color of an object. I took a picture of myself and then wanted to change the color of my shirt, I wanted my shirt to be blue. I tapped on my shirt and then EVERYTHING became blue. On the manuel, it turns out the colors of the objects you want to change have to be TOTALLY diffrent colors. (example-yellow and red) The DSI Recorder only allows you to record ten seconds. That was a huge dissapointment. Apps in the DSI store need to be bought with points (which is understandable) but you need to but those points with a credit or debt card. My touch screen actually stopped working reasontly, I fixed it by callibrating it. It took several tries for the callibrate to become succesful. Also, there is no GBA slot, so you are not able to play Nintendo SP games. The internet is very complicated to use to. I recomend the Nintendo DSI to others, but if you don't want [$] to go down the toliet, then do not buy this product. I find it useful in a way avoiding all of the cons. If you choose to buy this console then good luck with it and have fun! -ToyBuyer"

"If you don't have a DS or if you have the original DS then I would recommend this for you but if you have a DS lite then I wouldn't be so sure. The DSi is the same game system, it just has some updated features. You can connect to the internet and buy online games just for the DSi, but we don't know how good those games are going to be. There are going to be some games released later in the year that are only for the DSi because it has a camera but once again, we don't know how good those are going to be. You lose the GBA game slot at the bottom. You can not play the guitar hero game on this because of that. It has a camera on the outside and one on the inside. The exterior camera only has 3-megapixel's and the interior has an even lower-resolution; I wouldn't buy it just for the cameras. The graphics are the same, no improvement. Over all the graphics for this system and all the other DS systems are poor compared to the PSP.

On the bright side, it has an SD card slot for storing music, images and downloadable content. The DS is a great game system with very fun games. It has some great titles coming out soon. I myself have pre-ordered the DSi because I have the original DS. It has a slightly Larger screen and it is a little slimmer. The SD card slot should be really neat! If you have a DS lite it might not be worth the price unless you are a hardcore gamer... which I am. Do your research before buying."

"Okay, I am going to be honest, I don't own one, but I really want one for Christmas this year. Here is why YOU should want one to:

1: It is Bigger, Lighter (in weight and screen)

2: Even though there are only 2 colors, they are nice colors to have for a Video Game

3: Picto Chat has colors to draw with now

4: You can take Pictures with 2 cameras with over 10 different camera modes, including Graffiti and Morphing. You can also use the DS Download System to send photos to friends!

5: This game device is just so amazing. I can write 1,000,000,000 other reasons why you should buy it, but, that would be boring. So over all,



BUY IT NOW!!!!!!"

"It's better than the original DS, of course. Just playing with the settings and cameras is an experience. If you are considering buying one, just remember to read what other people think about it.

The DSi seems to be the most advanced gaming system you can buy now and take with you wherever you go. You can connect to the internet on it, of course, play DS games on it, and take pictures and record sound. You can have a wallpaper for the main start menu screen by setting a picture to go there. That feature was a main contributor of me buying. I personally think that what I paid for it was not that extreme. The blue color is amazing, but I wish there were more colors than what were available. Great product. Great buy."

I just have to add... good luck using the free web browser it comes with. I have heard many bad things about it. You can't access a lot of websites because it doesn't have flash. Just say no to that and stick with your computer."

"This is just like the Wii only portable!!! If you like the Wii then you are going to love this!!! And if you buy an SD card you can pass the pictures from the DSi to the Wii! It even has internet connection so you can visit any website you wan't except video websites so don't start criticizing it just because it doesn't have flash player it's just a video game console it's not a computer.It also has new features like in Picto Chat you can draw with rainbow colors. The DSi is the perfect game console for people who like video games,cameras, and MP3 players because you can also store music. For Guitar Hero fans,if you're going to buy the DSi, don't get all crazy and buy it, think before you buy the DSi because it doesn't have the GBA slot or you could just keep your old DS. You could also buy DSi games in the DSi shop.You can even get entertained just with the two cameras and recording you're voice because you can mess around with the pictures and with you're voce. I just loved the DSi and all the new features!!!!! Nintendo has done it again!!!!!!!"

"The DSi is awesome! The camera is really cool too. The graphics and sound quality is great. Much better than the DS Lite in my opinion. It's a good size, not too heavy or too light. And the color is nice too! So what if it doesn't have a slot for Gameboy games? It has lots more features that compensate for it. I'd buy this DSi again and again. It's perfect. I'd recommend this to gaming lovers of all ages.(:"

"I LUV MY BLUE NINTENDO DSi! Its PERFECT! There is NUTHING wrong with it! what was cool is that i went to get it to the Nintendo Store on the release date and they gave me a free shirt and a keychin with it! sooo cool! i cant stop using it!! the BEST thing since...EVERYTHING!
