The only thing DS lite has over regular DS is the screen is brighter, bigger, and better...

other than that the Big one is a lot better...

the Lite is so damn small...its so uncomfortable to hold in my hand...the Big DS is bigger and my hands arent so cramped..

You people might not know this...but i am a very manly man...i have big hands...the lite must be for little kids because its really not comfortable...

So in conclusion Big DS is for real Men...DS lite is for little kids..

Well I like both, and I have both. Generally speaking, I like the lite better, simply because it is more portable, and it is "cooler". If I show off the DS, I always show the lite, however I really do like the big DS as well, The sound quality is just far superior. Also, whenever I take videos of the latest releases for my site (on my sig), I use the DS Lite, simply because of the brighter and clearer screen. It looks a whole lot better on camera.

The ONLY thing that is better on the original DS is the sound quality. Everything else on the DS Lite is better. Its smaller, brighter, and cooler looking.

How small must you be for her to say that? :lol: All jokes aside, after getting a Lite, and trying to play the "Big" DS, the Light obviously wins... soooo much better, screens change games completely, like Rayman DS, which actually looks good now....

other than that the Big one is a lot better...

the Lite is so damn small...its so uncomfortable to hold in my hand...the Big DS is bigger and my hands arent so cramped..

You people might not know this...but i am a very manly man...i have big hands...the lite must be for little kids because its really not comfortable...

So in conclusion Big DS is for real Men...DS lite is for little kids..

Sounds like the "very manly man" is mad that he doesn't have/can't afford a DS Lite. :roll:

:lol: The only thing that really makes the Lite better is the extended battery life. I couldn't care less about screen brightness or any of that.

Im not gonna read all above posts. But i voted Phat, since everyone complains about problems with DS Lite they never had on Lite. But if you get a non defect one i guess its way better though. :P

gotta disagree, stylus, volume control, power switch and buttons are better on the lite. plus the screen, i to have big hands but i hold the lite easily, yours are probably bigger than mine if you like the phat better. also the lite is lighter and sleeker and more portable and pocket friendly. IDK about the sound, always used headphones for my DS. also the lite can use the e-card thing-a-ma-bob for the GBA while the phat cant (my friend told me).

 

EDIT: read everyones sig and southernbballers is the best (very inspiring), you should be ashamed of yourselves that only southernbballer can make an awesome sig, jk guys/gals.

I like the ds lite better since it's sleeker. the phat one is just too big and clunky... not pocket friendly at all.

I dont even think the brighter screen is the best new feature of the lite. I think its the bigger stylus, also the new location of the power switch(i dont think i could live if i accidentally turned my ds off on the big ds one more time.)

Also i have owned both, my big ds is broken though....due to elite beat agents but anyways lite is better in everyway.

I'm not sure which is better, since I only own the regular DS, but my friend has a DS Lite, and he's taken a shining for my DS Phat. He says it looks better built than his Lite, but I didn't hear everything he said. The only reason I don't have a Lite is because it's pointless to buy another system that's just like the one I have, only slightly different.

I have owned both and I have concluded that you sir are an idiot. In no way is the "big DS" asa you call it better, the screen is too dark and there is an awful glare. You obviously just made this post because you are too poor to buy a DS Lite or you dont even own a DS and instead a PSP, but your friend claims that it is indeed a "Nintendo DS". And there is nothing manly at all about having big hands, it just meens that you are a gorilla and need to be checked into the local zoo. By the way, I would definitely suggest getting either your eyes checked or seeing a shrink.

gamedingo5555
wow...you wanna calm down?? All i said was its a lot more comfortable in my hands...and if you read the first post i said the ds lite screen is better...i just dont like how small it is.... holding the big ds is a lot better because my hands are more stretched out and there farther apart...and my fingers arent all bent when im hitting the shoulder buttons.. if your honestly that upset over me saying i like the big one better than a lite i think your the one that needs to be seeing a shrink...

I just have to tell you this because every time I see your sig I think of it. We have a dog we call pancakes because he loves to eat them.

Oh yeah, DS lite is awesome. I didn't like my DS phat at all. Go figure.

I got the ds when it came out, so I have the orig one, the ds lite is cool and all, but I can see what he's saying, its hard for me to hold because its smaller. The screen is better, but the first one has a good screen too, way better than the sp's screen thats for sure. The only other thing that bugs me about the lite besides its size is that if you have a gba game in it sticks out, so if you put it in your pocket its not as protected.

The big ds pwns the lite so i dont know what u guys r talking about, i have the lite and the "big ds" and whenever i play the lite i feel like its gonna break whenever i press a button. ive dropped my big ds about 4 times on concrete, one time it feel while down screen first and nothing happened to it. with the lite though, it came with the cracked hinge and a messed up right shoulder button, and it wasnt even a used ds lite i bought it from gamestop. so in my mind, though the lite had various improvements, the durablity of the ds lite went down hill and there for the big ds is the winner. x)

Handhelds aren't exactly made for slamming them on "concrete." And if it meant anything to you, you wouldn't let that happen.

I have never got hold of the big DS Lite, but I suppose it would feel like a big Xbox controller. Also, I like the DS Lite appearance more than the previous one

Well my sister has a DS Lite and I have the original DS and now that I have played the DS Lite and the original DS, The DS Lite is much better. I just bought a DS Lite Onyx 2 days ago because i just couldn't stand it anymore. The DS Lite is smaller, brighter, lighter, and more pocket friendly. Thats one thing that bothered me about the original, it was a pain to try to push into your pocket.

I happened to find the fat DS very uncomfortable simply because it was shaped in such an awkward way that you'd have to have deformed, not large, hands to be able to play comfortably for more than about 30 minutes. The DS lite, though basically rectangular (which typically isn't that comfortable of a shape to hold for very long in the way you hold a DS), is much more comfortable for my rather large hands. Hand size has almost nothing to do with how comfortable a controller/handheld is to use. Button placement and shape of the controller/console are what makes comfort. Look at the XBOX 360 or Gamecube controller. Those are widely viewed by people of nearly every size as the most comfortable controllers for any console.

 

Being someone who could palm a regulation sized basketball at age 10, you can imagine that in the 10 years that have passed since then that they have grown quite a bit more. The old DS nor the DS lite isn't for "Manly Men". It's a matter of preference based on shape/button placement.

other than that the Big one is a lot better...

the Lite is so damn small...its so uncomfortable to hold in my hand...the Big DS is bigger and my hands arent so cramped..

You people might not know this...but i am a very manly man...i have big hands...the lite must be for little kids because its really not comfortable...

So in conclusion Big DS is for real Men...DS lite is for little kids..

Hahahahahahaha... wait... you're not joking??? LOL!

I know! Once there was a polll about how old the DS players were here, and the majority was over 18. Go figure.
