TAG Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Meh, it's not really worth it, IMO. If I want a DS, I'll go for a DS Lite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoex Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 From my understanding the use of the flash memory was to be used so that you can save your games onto the DS so you could play them without actually having the cartridge in. Can anyone verify that? Carrying around a DSi for internet is way more convient then carrying around a laptop for internet. Of course, doesn't the PSP already have the ability to access the internet? The only reason I see to actually buy this product is because it can take ingame pictures. PSP offers internet access, phones already let you take pictures.

J-Max Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 £150? No thanks. I'm more then happy with my DS Lite and M3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemniscate Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 It is $170 US. I wouldn't buy it. I use my DS mostly for Pokemon, and this removes the backward compatibility of the Pokemon games for DS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturn of Elemia Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Not worth it IMO. Bloodrun already gave the reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cin Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 This will solve my WiFi issue. (Nintendo were stupid to ever use WEP, whenever one knows WEP has a sign on it saying 'hijack me now'). I haven't been able to use WiFi since we decided to get off crappy BTYahoo net and on to Sky which works best with WPA (and is now giving equally as bad net) My sister is fighting for me to get this lol, by saying my DS battery is starting to go (It has to be closing on 500 charges by now...we got it more or less the first week it was out) of course playing on it 7 hours straight is gonna kill the battery. (Of course he's forgotten my sister's DS with the broken touch screen still has a near unused battery) Harbinger, that's the exact reason I'm glad I'm keeping my DS =D.

Holy Babylon Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Sounds like it will suck. PSP is ultimate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAG Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Sounds like it will suck. PSP is ultimate.Not really. If anything, it'll probably be as good as the DS lite. The extra features will probably balance out the lack of GBA slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cin Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 El that should have been a thing you noticed, alot of people mentioned it in posts. Its a small lose if you don't trade in your DS or DS Lite to get the i. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Beasto Perezoso Posted February 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 The main reason I can't wait for the i is the fact my Lite's bottm screen is all messed up. I still have my original one though.. So I've been using that to hold me over. El that should have been a thing you noticed' date=' alot of people mentioned it in posts.

I thought you were talking about Pearl/Diamond to Platinum.I just realized you were talking about GBA ---> P/D/PlaIn that case I knew...Dur *Conks self on the head*Since I still have the original, I'm set.

Holy Babylon Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 I don't get a point of the whole camera thing. They barely use the microphone with the normal one anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Beasto Perezoso Posted February 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 The camera can be used outside of games and wifi, unlike the micropohne which has new use outside of games. You can take random pictures and screw around with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holy Babylon Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Oh, well then. At least we'll have something to do with the expensive things they add to the DS instead of just sitting there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
