Should I get a DS or wait for DSi

Heck, I didn't even bother to get a DS lite. I still am using the Phat. Works great, no problems with it, so why get a new one with "bells and whistles" you probably won't even use? (Besides, I enjoy playing my GBA games.)

Still, if you enjoy the bells and whistles, why not?

I would wait. But while waiting, as with the dsi, you'll be able to download games onto it, amirite? It's worth the wait, IMO. I'd buy a used ds phat in the mean time, so that you have something to play ds games. Also, isn't it true that there will be DS games made that will be for the dsi only? That's another advantage of the dsi.

Wait for it, its worth it.

When id the DSI coming out? my B-day is in late March and i am wondering when it will be released.MetaKnight50

i dont understand why in the world would people buy a DS phat when you have no ds. I dont understand why people would wanna buy that big clunky thing with dull screens around when there are better options (just the way i see it, no offence to people who have one). Here are my suggestions:

For DSphat owners or for people who dont own any DS.

-If you dont have a DS and wanna play BOTH DS and GAMEBOY ADVANCE games, go for the DS lite man.

-If you dont have a DS and only care about playing DS games, you should probably wait and maybe get the DSi

-If you have the DS phat and wanna play BOTH DS and GAMEBOY ADVANCE, you should probably consider just sticking to your DS phat or getting a DS Lite (i recommend getting the Lite)

-If you have the DS phat and only care about playing DS games, yeah you might wanna wait and consider getting the DSi

For DS Lite Owners

- If you have a DS Lite and wanna play BOTH DS and GAMEBOY ADVANCE games, you should probably stick to your DS Lite.

--If you have the DS Lite and only care about playing DS games, yeah you might wanna wait and consider getting the DSi

only the DSi has DSware, camera (and camera-based games) and music player (and music player based games).

the only thing the DSi doesnt have is the GBA slot, which makes impossible to play guitar hero, but the DS versions are not funny sooooo...

If you want to play any GBA game, then you should get DS Lite.

If you don't want to play any GBA game, then you may wait for DSi. DSi may offer downloaded GB/GBC/GBA games like VC.

if you are interested in the camera and this ds ware stuff, then you might as well wait for it.

but my own personal opinion would be to go with the lite, as it's looking way better (where's the DSi's 2 square logo? where's the smooth edges? the DSi is ugly. when i first saw it i thought it was some cheap DS imitation) and in the end, do you honestly think you'll be using all it's 'unique features' that much?

I'd say go for the DSL....because it's gonna be about 40 bux cheaper and you never want to get anything thats in the first batch....unless you're willing to wait for a year....

wait for dsi, since it'll be here like in march or earlier whitefirex

Not worth the wait.

Bad camara

you should most definitely just buy a ds... and THEN buy a dsi. because we are sheep and we do as Nintendo hopes that we do... SPEND. MORE. MONEY.

the features will make ds unique games muh better i reckon. (daigasso, eba, etc)

the better hardware specs and the use of the more popular wifi option i reckon is a major point...games will run smoother and wifi will not lag/be as laggy (rejoice for any non-american who lags worse than a dead elephant)
