Go DS lite! Make sure sony does not conquer!

Jimmy 2004 · Jun 11, 2006

So is the DS called lite because it's smaller or is it less powerful? Might sound like a stupid question, but I really don't know and the source is mostly pics without technical info...

KennyT772 · Jun 11, 2006

smaller thinner and basically the same hardware inside. i would definatly have to say i would rather play my gbc anyday over one of those peices of shit though...too bad my girlfriend is getting a lite today and wants me to play it with her...erg

Jimmy 2004 · Jun 11, 2006

KennyT772 · Jun 11, 2006

wazzledoozle · Jun 12, 2006

Its just a DS.... thats smaller. And I thought the original DS was uncomfortable to hold... this will be much worse.

POGE · Jun 12, 2006

i know, and luigi, they just seem like they want to start somthing :mad:

KennyT772 · Jun 12, 2006

well i saw my girlfriends and i hate the damn thing.... the edges are as sharp as the ones on the ipod...after all it was designed by the same damn people.

AMDCam · Jun 12, 2006

I hate when Nintendo does this stuff. Gameboy Light (pocket with backlight built in), Gameboy Advance SP, gameboy advance Micro, and now the Nintendo DS Lite. It makes the guys that get the original thing feel out-of-date but there's really no difference except size. Nintendo should get the design right the FIRST time, and stop this dumbass "maybe a little smaller will boost sales, and people will have to buy the exact same hardware all over again to stay up-to-date, and we don't even have to put any effort in the power aspect, PERFECT" thing.

BigD6997 · Jun 12, 2006

yeah nintendo is kinda retarted, i like my original gameboy... tho i havnt known were it was since i was like 6, lol idk

tetris was bomb

wazzledoozle · Jun 12, 2006

I had a regular GBA until about a year ago. It fit very nicely into my hands, better than any other gameboy. If it had a backlight, it would have been the perfect portable game system, ever.

OOTay · Jun 12, 2006

i want one. + a psp

That's the one reason I hated my GBA. You could hardly see the screen sometimes and the light had to be near perfect.
