Nintendo DS Lite is a lighter and brighter version of the highly successful Nintendo DS, which has sold more than 4 million units across Europe and 16 milllion units worldwide.
Nintendo's latest console includes all the existing features of the Nintendo DS, yet includes a variety of distinctive changes which truly sets it apart from other handheld consoles. Nintendo DS Lite retains the advanced touch screen technology, allowing players to control the software with a stylus or even their finger, as well as dual screens, voice recognition and Wi-Fi capabilities of the Nintendo DS but is now both smaller and lighter. Weighing nearly 60g less than the original, it is just two thirds of the original size. The redesign isn't only cosmetic though, the Nintendo DS Lite features adjustable screen brightness with four settings, a repositioned microphone for ease of use and a larger and more comfortable stylus. With its new design and unique features, this console is perfect for everyone regardless of age, gender and gaming skills.

Brilliant

The Ds is a fantastic hand held unit and is far superior to its rival the PSP. The duel screen is used across the bourd in most games although some games do make it into a bit of a gimmick although the actual DS cannot be blamed for this but the game companies can. In terms of durability the DS is brilliant my friends and I all have a DS and one friend drops his all the time and it all works fine. The DS is a very sleek and minimalist looking unit which not only looks brilliant when your out but also when its just sat there on the side.
This is the best hand held currently on the market, with an excellent build quality and some fantastic games. Its all you need with you when your bourd on the train or just want to fill some time in, oh yeh and also to play in class ; ) .

In reply to Lulubear5s review, the DS is a great console, it is delicate if you drop it, but if your stylus goes out of focus then you simply re-calibrate the touch screen by entering the settings from the homepage.
The Best

I have owned nearly all of the Nintendo consoles. But the DS is by far superior to its predisesors.
The dual screen allows a unique game play and the stylus also makes the games more interactive.
the age range has no bounds for this console, anyone from the age of 3 to 75 or up can play this. there is a huge variety of games and accessories that allow you to presonalise this console.
i love this console soo much !!
