Video Game Reviews of Nintendo DSi Matte - Blue
Customer Review: Glad I chose this one
Summary: 5 Stars
I was debating getting a new handheld gaming system. My kids both have PSP's but I don't like them very much. I like something more simple to control (hey, I'm 36). I don't want to have to figure out all the little buttons, especially on something this small. The DS has the stylus/touch screen, so that is what initially drew me. I did my research trying to choose between an iTouch and a DSLite. Naturally, the iTouch can do much more, but hey, it's also much pricier. If money were no object, I'd probably have gotten the iTouch. Anyway, so it was between the DSi and the DSLite. I scoured the net trying to get everyone's opinion. I don't already have a DSLite, so I was starting fresh. Many people complained that the 2 are too similar, not to bother upgrading, and that may be so. But if you, like me, don't have either, go ahead and get the DSi. I love being able to browse the net (although it is limited), check my email on the go, take pics, and those were big issues for me. You're not going to be giving up your puter in favor of surfing with the DSi, it's much slower & aggravating to navigate around the page when compared to a puter, but it's still really good when faced with nothing. I also really like the game selections of the DS. There aren't many downloadable DSiWare games, yet, but you can use all the DS games on the DSi. I'm a "mature" player. I don't want shoot 'em & kill 'em games. I don't want typical teen type games. I want puzzle style, Diner Dash type, and for that type of gaming, the DSi can't be beat. It comes downloaded with a calendar function, which is nice for scheduling/planner use. I carry this around in my purse everywhere. I've had it for almost a month and I am glad I chose this one!Customer Review: GREAT purchase!

We bought this system for our 6 year old son's birthday. He was absolutely thrilled. It is user friendly and provides hours of entertainment. I do not need to write a ten paragraph synopsis to tell you that this is a good purchase from a great company and you will not be disappointed.Customer Review: Not used yet

I bought this as a Christmas gift...we haven't actually used it yet. We do have 2 DS's thought and my kids love them..only thing is that screens scratch easily! Customer Review: Good Stuff

I bought the pink DSi for my girlfriend and she couldn't be happier. If you like games that are more common these days buy the PSP. If you like kiddie games or little games with a twist buy the DSi. I had little hope for the DSi, but playing the new Super Mario Bros. on it was great. It reminded me of the simple fun of the original NES.Customer Review: DSi Love

Great WiFi connection, awesome wireless game downloads, very intuitive controls. Love it! I felt silly ordering a nintendo for myself as an adult, thinking it was for kids - but I'm glad I got it!
