Guitar Hero Fanatic!!!!!!!!!!1
Awesome handheld console!!!
PostedMay 9, 2009
this nintendo console is awesome. it has a sleek finish and functions great. im using the nintendo DSi right now writing this review. it has a bigger screen, great sound, and lets you go shop for games. and the two cameras that it has adds a whole new feature to this already wonderful handheld gamming system. the sound application is cool to. you could record your voice and change it up. the games you could play are amazing. you could play games like ryhthm heaven, pokemon platinum, grand theft auto chinatown wars, and professor layton and the curious village. the only disadvantage of the nintendo dsi is that you cant play gameboy games. you would miss out on all the old gameboy games and guitar hero on tour and decades. but if you ask me it would be better to play guitar hero on the home consoles. but other than that i would give this system a 10/10.

Great Product with more functions

The DSi is a great product. At least thats what I think. I mean, think about it. It has a great quality camera, a sleeker design, the ability to play your music, and online features. What more could you ask for from Nintendo? Really, the only questionable thing is the removed GBA slot. It may seem like a bad move to many at first, but if you think about it, you're only losing out on Guitar Hero really-and i would recommend that strictly for Home Consoles, and I think anyone who has experienced Guitar Hero on a Home Console would agree. Also, the camera's functions are numerous, by the way, though i STRONGLY recommend a Micro-SD card. That way you can store music, countless photos, etc. So basically if you're gonna get one, it might cost a bit more what with the add-ons and all. Though, to me, it's SO much better than the DS lite that is strongly recommend it to any Nintendo fan.

Great system
PostedMay 3, 2009
If you are looking to buy a portable game system, a music player, a camera[or two!], and/or something that you and your friends can entertain each other with, why not just buy them all in one? The Nintendo DSi has a camera inside and out, with many different kinds of types of ways of taking pictures. I took a picture that i would have never in my life think i would ever make a photo look like. I played around with the resemblance feature and the colorpads, and merging two faces is pretty fun, too. You can put your photos into categories that are icons. Make a memo of the day you spent using the calendar in the camera. And then when you're all done, upload your photos to an SD Card to bring your pictures to the computer. The sound of the system has the capacity to be loud and still sound clear. The playing with music is incredibly fun for doing by yourself when you are bored or playing with friends to be entertained. So easy to set up, I didn't even have to look at the manual, I set it up very quickly. Nintendo DSi shop channel is very easy to set up and use, and very quick in downloads. Differences of the DS lite and DSi: -DSi has modified sound. -DSi makes it simple to go back to the menu without having to turn off and on your system. -You can put a game into the DSi while it is on and the DSi will immediatly recognize it. -You can take pictures, but not just any pictures, they are of very good quality. -Recieve 1000 DSi Ware points if you buy the Nintendo DSi before a specific date in August 2009. -Connect to the internet to surf or play online play with less fuss. -The internet can be used if you have a connection for free. -Menu is much easier to work with. -Pictochat has a new pen that you can use: if the pen is already selected, you can touch the pen again and use the new multicolor. -Power switch is now a button, and is inside the system, avoiding the accidental turning on of the system. -Volume control is easier, its no longer a slider, but more of a button. -Outside feel of system is not fingerprint collecting, and any scratch will disappear with just the rub of your finger. -Screens are noticably bigger, and if you previously had a DS or DS lite, you will notice the change of size in the screens instantly. Overall, I just bought this system today and I can't be any happier with it! Anyone who is thinking of buying one should have no doubts that this will satisfy your need for anything that this system has.

Great new system
PostedApril 30, 2009
The nintendo dsi is what i thought it would be, and more. This system is great. I love all the new features! The features include: the dsi shop, putting music on an SD card, enhanced volume, better graphics, and of course, the camera. The dsi shop doesn't really have any downsides, other than the fact that you need wi-fi. The music, however does have a downside. you can only put AAC files onto an SD card. but other than that, it's great! The volume isn't really that big of a deal. another cool thing is, that you can change the brightness while in-game. The volume is now controlled by buttons, And by holding select and pressing up and down, you can change the brightness. The graphics are better but unless your comparing the dsi and the ds lite side-by-side, you can't really tell. And lastly, There's the camera. The camera is great. It's extremely fun to use all the differnt lenses. (Distortion lens, graffiti lens etc.) Overall I think this system is really great, and worth buying.
