    It's small and lightweight so it is good for travel and everyday playing. The battery does not last for as long as I would have liked, but it is an older electronic so that is understandable. There are lots of great games to play on it, but unfortunately some of the newer DS model games do not work with the DS Lite.

    I have really wanted one for myself and for my son, the price has sometimes stopped me. I wish they weren't as expensive because it's not always something I can afford, but I am still trying to get one. Kids love them and it amazes me how they can get so into it and zone out into their own world (not that that is a bad thing lol)

    I bought this product for my daughter, she is 6. I thought perhaps it was too fragile for such a young child, that she wouldn't be able to play the games or use the various functions without constant assistance but this was amazing! Its so easy, step by step- even for a child just learning to read. I love the parental controls, the graphics. And I love the durability, she has actually dropped this 3 times and my heart was in my throat (my son dropped his PSP just once and it never worked again) - but it was perfectly fine. There is such a variety of games, for every age group even a 3 yr old could enjoy it. Its terrific for long trips too, the battery has great staying power, and it can sit for several days without being charged. I did think it was a little expensive but now that she has had it for a bit I feel it was a very worthwhile investment!

    Great portable device for kids. I have two sons that love it, the unit is very robust and durable, my little one dropped it all the time and still works well, the only thing I would like is that the pencil can be attached so the don't lose it all the time.

    Great for killing time. Before I got my Blackberry, I took this everywhere with me. Use it while waiting for the doctor, when somebody else is driving, when waiting for a chronically late person, etc. It beats getting frustrated and it keeps me amused for a while. The price when I bought it was a bit steep, but that was quite some time ago. I bought it at Costco and it came with a case and 2 games, so not bad overall. I haven't used it much lately, not sure why, but think I'm gonna take it to bed with me right now. It also jelps you fall asleep! haha

    Worth the money!

    I love this! I never had a gameboy as a kid so I can now make up for that! I use it for sudoku, and recently bought Oregon Trail from the online shop!

    I now have 3 of these. All of my kids wanted one. There great for ages 4 to whatever.
    The games are reasonably priced and the units are tough. Price could be better though.
