the XL is pretty sexy. I would get it if I didn't have a lite.SoAmazingBaby

This is true.

I'm sure you could get used to it, but a DSi XL is pretty much meant to sit on a table while you play.

Considering Nintendo has been throwing out new DS models every 3-5 months and you're short on money, a used DS Lite or DSi would work.

I don't think the DSi XL has been released yet, so those would be pricey, even used.

The DSi was released yesterday. I pick up mine yesterday at GameStop. Is the best handheld I ever had. Bigger screens is a plus, clear crispy; feel sturdytoo, not so heavy. Portability??? I remember my original GameBoy I use to take with me everywere, so for me that is not a problem. Many people bash the DSi XL without even try it.

Looks just about as big as a PSP. If you're fine with a PSP then I'd say a DSi XL will be fine with you too. Also I bet you're gonna get quite a lot of yes's. Don't own one though but I'd recommend the XL.Kenny789

TC asked whether or not he should get a DSi or DSi XL for his daughter. He didn't ask for your opinion on why she doesn't need a DS. You think you know what's best for his child, and tried to convince him otherwise. That to me is ignorant.

I'm not the one getting all bent out of shape. Seems like you're the one that needs to grow up, ok champ?

I'd say go with the DS Lite, assuming your daughter probably doesn't care about the extra features on the DSi, so it would be cheaper.Superzone

my 6 yr old is getting her first DS in two weeks (on her birthday). pink DS lite. i thought she might like the camera on the DSi but thats like 40 extra bucks. not worth it i thought. the extra cash will go to some games.primitive013

[QUOTE="soulreaper-4"][QUOTE="hydralisk86"] Not sure what you mean by loose. Maybe the problem is with your ds lite, not with all ds lites. hydralisk86

[QUOTE="soulreaper-4"][QUOTE="hydralisk86"] I had a lite before, but due to certain circumstances, i was able to get a new dsi. Imo the d pad is better, it's clickier. However, it's up to you if you want to spend more money to get the dsi. hydralisk86
