Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 947 Joined: 7 Aug 2008 | I got the DS lite when my original was too thrashed to play and I don't regret it. The DSi is just a DS lite with a camera right? If so why not I got a new one just for a new brighter screen and I don't regret it. And you gotta have a working DS for Golden Sun DS!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOLDEN SUN |

Gone Gonzo Posts: 2485 Joined: 4 Jun 2009 | Only bad thing about the slot other than GBA games (which isn't a problem for you) is the guitar hero games I think. They make your wrist die anyway so its probally better for your health you dont play them. Plus you get the DS store and aload of other new features. Plus with games coming out specificly for it, sounds like you would only get one later on anyway. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2113 Joined: 15 Jun 2008 | In this situation, I don't see any reason why you shouldn't get a DSi over the standard DS. Go for it. Me, I'm waiting till they make it worth my while to switch. |

Besides, Nintendo put out their release schedule for the next while for DSiware, and the only weaker lineup I've ever seen is probably the next year's Wii software lineup. http://www.instantrimshot.com/ I'll be here all night folks. |

Infamous Scribbler Posts: 683 Joined: 12 Mar 2009 | yeah the battery chargers go after about 500 charges if i read the owner's manual correctly i had to buy a new one of those. I have the original DS too but so far everything works fine even though the shoulder buttons stick sometimes. When Golden Sun comes out for the DS then i probably will spring for the new one but until then i see no purpose, I can wait for a price drop. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1472 Joined: 21 Jun 2008 | Since your DS is breaking down pretty badly, I'd say go for it. You already have a GBASP, so unless you want to play the Guitar Hero: On Tour games, there shouldn't be a problem there.
I know this isn't the kind of topic for this, but I can't resist. No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle Not to mention that Bethesda is working on a Wii game, Retro Studios is up to something, and we still have half a year left before Nintendo before 2010 begins, so there is still a chance that more games will be announced. Hardly a weak lineup. |

Let me just cut to the chase...
I have the original Nintendo DS and it has seen better days. As of about a year ago, my L Button doesn't work at all and the battery just doesn't charge as much as it used to, meaning I get less gaming out of my DS more and more. I don't really use the GBA slot either because of the L button and that most GBA games I own use the button. I also still have my GBA SP...
Long story short...
Should I get a DSi or not?
