Nintendo DS



About the DS portable game console, it is very famous not because of its dual screen, but because of its touch screen , with a stylus included in the package when you buy it. Its touch screen is at the bottom, and is the main place to play DS games as all the games for the Nintendo DS requires the touch screen. Take for example, the 'Pokemon' version Diamond, all moves the you are supposed to command your 'Pokemon' to use to defeat the other enemy, requires the you to tap on the touch screen, using your fingers or stylus, for the moves and other commands.

There are 2 versions of Nintendo DS. The original version is the one above at the top, while the later version, Nintendo DS lite, is below the Nintendo DS. If you want to compare between the 2 versions, the DS lite is certainly a better choice to buy as it is smaller, thinner and lighter, and has 3 different light brightness. This can only be changed in the Start Menu of the DS. That is the great advantage between Nintendo DS and the Nintendo DS Lite. While the DS lite has some great advantages, the Nintendo DS also has one good advantage: it is much sturdier than the DS Lite as it has a harder casing, thus making it heavier, while the DS lite has a much lighter and weaker casing, so it might break easily when first dropped, not like the Nintendo DS.
So if you are planning to buy a DS, and you are a careless person, i recommend that you buy the Nintendo DS and not the DS lite. If you are a person that expects high qualities of things that you buy and wants to play high quality stuff, I recommend that you buy the Nintendo DS Lite.
