Reviews of the Nintendo DSi (blue)
-
CNET Review
The Good: Adds two larger screens; two 0.3-megapixel cameras; a bit thinner than the DS Lite; exclusive access to the DSi Shop for downloadable games and applications.
The Bad: No longer supports Game Boy Advance games; lower battery life than its predecessor; Internet security settings are buried and confusing.
The Bottom Line: While not all previous DS owners should upgrade, the DSi is an ambitious and solidly designed portable gaming system.

Review Summary: The Nintendo DSi is pure, unadulterated fun. Just not a massive leap from the DS Lite.
