I love My Ds that my fiance bought for me. though I have the older model from two yrs ago We still bring it every where! It nice and compact and the battery life last pretty long! I also recently bought a ds tt from a friend at work and now I can simply download games on and off anytime I want. and depending on your memory card you could put lots of games on there without having to lug around game cases everywhere! Trust me you could never be to old for games!

Hmm... this is my best friend when i travel. I move back and forth from uni and home...so when i take the bus...im on my ds. There are a lot of games, and with the touch screen interaction ... even me, who's a really horrible gaming...can play and have fun. There are endless games on this so you'll never get bored. I also love how you can play against other players....my favorite is tetris and mario cart. I compete against my friends and i love it. I definitely recommend it! I also keep it in my purse!

I think this is a wonderful game system. It has a wide range of games to purchase for it. I bought them for my children and they enjoy them more than a home game system. They can take them on car rides, use them while waiting at appointments, anywhere you want something to keep them entertained. Every now and then I play with one of theirs.

I was a little skeptical at first since I am not really that in to video games but I had seen the commercials. I had also recently read an article about boosting your brainpower through crossword puzzles and things such as Soduku. I happened to get a Best Buy gift certificate for my birthday and I thought, "Perfect. I will jump in feet first to the video game world." So I did and $200 later (yeah this thing with a few games will set you back) I am the proud owner of a Nintendo DS Lite.

The games are pretty easy to play for the most part but a few have gotten me caught up causing me to restart. I am not a direction reader and prefer to learn by doing. That is not always easy when it comes to the DS Lite games. I had to do a little reading but it was quick and then I was off.

I play Soduku daily, do a few crossword puzzles and play Brain Age which is incredibly fun although sometimes humbling. I do often have to fight my children to play with it because they love it too.

There are several recipe programs which are fun and a Spanish language disk that I am working on now. I love it! The price is a little overwhelming and the games seem a little high sometimes but I am otherwise pleased with my purchase.

I wasn't really into video games until I got my DS Lite for my 18th birthday. No I am addicted! I love the idea of the stylus and the screen are super clear and the system is so portable. There are games for every age group and a lot of really original games that are a lot of fun. This is a great console for anybody who isn't a hard core gamer! I even go my mom wanting one!

I quite enjoy this game system -- out of all the current portable game systems out at the moment, it was probably the first on my list to get. There are a variety of reasons for this, but I think the main reason was because of the amount of games that I was interested in. As usual, there were some classic games that I always enjoy playing -- those in the Mario, Zelda, and Pokemon series, for example -- as well as others that intrigued me. The prospect of the touchpad and stylus is also very fun, and I am always pleased when I am able to use it.

As others have mentioned, it is very transportable and easy to carry around. I also use the alarm clock function quite often -- I find it very amusing to see how much time is left until the alarm is set to go off.

Overall, it is a very enjoyable product and I highly recommend it.

My oldest daughter had one and has passed it down to her sister. It has lasted through both of them . The games are fun- especially the Imagine series and the Petz group! I've been known to play while they are at school!

Great system. My 6 yr old has one and I bought a few games for myself (like Brain Age) and it is a great way to occupy spare time when the kids are away. It also keeps my son entertained when I need time to clean up or when he gets bored while I'm running errands. Only prob is, I want my own now!! :)

This game system rocks! Not only does my son love it during quiet time, but it's also great for long road trips. And now they have come out with lots of adult games as well. There is one teaching different cooking techniques that I'm dying to get!

I bought this for my 3 and a half year old and she loves it. It keeps her occupied on long car rides and in restaurants. Its easy to use, she turns it on and off herself, puts the games in and out and starts the games all on her own. They make great preschool games. It makes me want to start buying games for myself and using it when she is not. Its a great handheld system for anyone at any age.
