Fun: Nintendo's newest DS Lite adds a cool new color scheme and some subtle improvements.

+ Brighter screen with better contrast than previous generation

Brief Review: Nintendo Scores Big Again
Fun: Usually when a company produces a "new and improved" version of a product, there's no need to invest excitement, but for those of you who are already big fans of the Nintendo DS, the DS Lite is a brilliant handheld gaming device. I highly recommend that you upgrade to the DS Lite. For those of you who are considering the DS for the first time, I hope the following summary is of help to you in your decision. Here is a brief rundown of my pros and cons:

An Innovative Gaming System
Fun: About a month ago, I decided to purchase my first game system since the origional NES. I got the DS, and I must say I love it. Somehow, they have found an idea that seemed to only be a gimmick (the dual screens) and turn it into something new and fun. So far, I have bought New Super Mario Brothers, Mario 64 DS, Metroid Prime: Hunters, Mario Kart, and a Japan-English dictionary program (my main justification for buying it in the first place). It is a great way to kill 5 ...

very fun
Fun: I have owned the first DS since the day it came out. I bought the DS Lite about a week after it came out and I was amazed of the changes. It is so much lighter and is just a lot better to have than the original. The screen emits about as much light as the sun. It is like DLP technology compared to a regular TV. Plus, most of the games look loads better. Sme people say there is a stress crack, but I have had mine since June and it is still in very good condition. My advi...

Perfect portable gaming experience
Fun: I'm a man in my late 30s who used to enjoy video games, but between work, going back to school, and children, I just don't have time for gaming any more. So it's been ~5 years since I tried any gaming system, much less a handheld (which I've always viewed as worthless from a gaming perspective). Recently, I had a long business trip, and friends recommended the Nintendo DS Lite and Advanced Wars: Dual Strike. I bought both on their recommendation and I can honestly s...

The ds has been perfected.
Fun: Not only does the lite look better, it has been tweaked to perfection in many ways:
WAY brighter screen, makes the original ds look really dull.THe brightness also improves the colors, and makes them seem more vivid.
Stylus is thicker and longer.
Touch screen has a much more scratch resistant coating.
The touch screen seems bigger because instead of being sunken in the ds, it practically pops out, making it look closer and nic...

How to keep your game looking new
Fun: I've read some reviews on Amazona and CNET lists as a drawback of the game its tendency to draw swirls and surface scratches. Just let me say that's not really a terrible problem. I just thought I'd share how to remove scratches from the glossy surface of the Nintendo DS Lite games. I refinish guitars, so I know quite a few tricks with plastic (for pickguards). I recently bought a used DS Lite (glossy black) for my son from Ebay. It had a bunch of surface scratches, sw...

First Time Handheld Owner Quite Satisfied
Fun: So, this is the first hand held game system I have personally owned. I chose it because of its sleek styling and convenient size. I didn't need all the bells and whistles of the PSP - this works great for me for anytime play.
It is a great size - fits right into about the smallest purse I can find along with a wallet, checkbook and cell phone.
It is really user-friendly, with a self-explanatory menu and easy operation. It has easily used components, and...

It's Time For an Upgrade
Fun: I got the original DS back in November of 2004 when it first launched and always felt that the design could somehow be improved. I assume I wasn't the only one who felt this way b/c not too long after, Nintendo announced a redesign for the system....and Boy what a Redesign!
- The first and most important change has to be the new quality of both screens. They are about 3x more vibrant and 4x as bright as the original DS' screens. The colors in the games pop ou...

Excellent for every age
Fun: Ok I admit it, I have too many game systems. And with all of the choices, I still play my DS more than the others combined. Why? Well, it has the most interesting games with the most fun interface (the touch screen). The new DS Lite is nearly flawless. The lite screens are brighter and that makes a huge difference. I did a side by side comparison with the original DS and was amazed at the lite's brightness.
The only negative I have found with the DS (both ver...
