From a gadgeteers perspective, the Nintendo DSi doesn't seem like it's all that: the cameras are incredibly low resolution, the internal memory is shockingly low to today's standards, and the system's capabilities couldn't hold a candle to the pure power of the iPod Touch. But from a gamer's point of view, the Nintendo DSi is a great little piece of entertainment, and an evolution of the immensely popular DS Lite handheld with additions that make a whole lot of sense. I'm a huge fan. Nintendo and many of its third-party developers have proven that the existing Nintendo DS has what it takes to provide a unique, handheld gaming experience: by combining traditional D-pad and buttons with touch screen control and offering up a second display all in a portable form, Nintendo has created a unique platform that has the potential for game ideas that stray from the usual formula. The Nintendo DSi doesn't break away from what's been working for the platform. Instead, the system adds functionalities that advance the platform and give it new capabilities that make sense. The cameras, for example, seem like a gimmick at first, but in the right hands they can open up brand new opportunities. While other systems have toyed with the camera idea for years, the DSI is the first gaming platform that includes cameras as standard. This means that developers can focus on its capabilities as a primary goal in their DSi titles instead of as an optional side project. The potential is there – it's a little disappointing that the Japanese system's been out for nearly four months and really only has Wario Ware Snapped! to show, but with the worldwide launch out of the way we're expecting big things out of the DSi's eyes in the near future. The internal memory of the Nintendo DSi opens up the bigger picture: downloadable games. Now that developers can get their ideas into systems without having to go through the usual publishing chains, expect even more "out of the box" ideas to hit the handheld platform. For years game designers have been toying with the DS hardware in a variety of ways, but having their projects nixed by the higher ups because cartridges are expensive to produce and retailers aren't willing to risk stocking experimental products. Though the launch offering is a little uncreative, it won't be long before we start seeing some great concepts using the system capabilities. Nintendo added functions to the DS platform without hurting what made the handheld popular: the size and shape of the system has stayed just as small, sleek, and durable as the DS Lite platform, something I consider already a great design. The only hard complaint I have is in material: the shift from the glossy surface to the matte finish makes fingerprints less obvious, but it's now more prone to scratches if you toss the device carelessly into a bag. It's still one tough little system, but it will now show battle damage more prominently. The DSi is initially a tough sell to those content with the DS Lite – after all, the DS cartridges are still flowing to shelves at a steady pace and will continue to do so for months if not years from now. But when you look at the bigger picture – exclusive downloadable games, the ability to carry games and software inside the system, the opportunities for camera-based DS gaming – it's hard not to recommend putting down the cash for the new system.

Good quality. Looks brand new. I still need to buy a stylus and charger. Did not realize it did not come with a charger. Overall though good bang for my buck and really like it.

My daughter had saved her money & used birthday money to purchase a DSi with. Her grandmother had two DS hand held games previously. So she was familiar with the product. She decided she wanted a DSi as it has a lot of neat features. In particular it has a camera which she always wanted so this was a real bonus. You can take pictures two ways (things you are looking at and switch it and take a picture of yourself). After the pictures are taken, you can modify them and really have fun (you can stretch and do silly things with the pictures and then restore them back to normal). There are all sorts of features that can be added like stars and hearts. She got a bundle pack and it came with four girl games and the DSi comes in different colors (her's was pink). When you first turn it on, it is can personalize it (name, birthdate, favorite color, etc.). It has so many features and different activities to do, great for travel or home. I was also impressed that it stated to take 10-15 minute breaks every hour. We went over these instructions the first day we got it and she knows she can't play for hours on end at a time. Great product and definitely recommend!Vollständige Rezension lesen
My daughter was elated with her brand new dsi. She is 5 and uses it like a pro. I bought the dsi because of the different features and the cameras. I like that it is a fairly easy to use device.
Everything is in perfect condition! Our daughter loves it, especially the wappy dog game & camera. Its a good size for a almost 7yr old. Can access internet & download games & more. Plus parental controls. Daughter figured it out pretty quick & easy.

My little sister had a pink Nintendo DS Lite when we were kids. She lost it years ago and has been trying to find it ever since. Her birthday was coming up, so I thought I would get her a replacement. Then I saw this DSi, which was nicer and cheaper than the DS Lites I had found, and figured I would get her an upgrade. I couldn't have been happier with the results. The product was in perfect condition, and every accessory item and game was too. My sister has been incredibly happy with it. I'm always weary of buying used items online, but this purchase really could not have been better!

The Nintedo Dsi is a lot of fun. It's nice to have a game console to use while traveling or in your free time. It has a wide selection of games, including the ever historical collection of mario games. The graphics are quite impressive considering the size of the ds. Overall, I believe the ds is worth the price because the games and it's user compatibility make it simple and fun at all times.
Very easy to use, my 7 year old breezes through it. Has parental controls to keep your kids safe :) Keeps the kids busy on long outings. Battery life is about two hours. Would recommend a car charger if you travel alot.
The DSi is a really awesome portable gaming system. Nice and light and fits easily in a pocket. Battery life seems to be really good too.

The camera feature is awesome!!! Hope it last longer than the DSlite!! My daughter loves all the features it has to add to photos or change your voice recordings. The DSlite she got for Christmas a few years ago didnt last long at all. Hope this one lasts longer!!!
