    I can't even begin to describe how much I love my pink DS lite.
    One of the main reasons I think it's so great is because it has a wide variety of games and it's still easily portable! I mean, what's the fun in having a bulky system like xbox or playstation when you can carry around a system in the palm of your hands???
    I also love how even though the screen is small on the DS, it is still very good quality.
    If you plan to get a DS, I just have on tip for you: make sure you buy screen protectors to go over it because you will notice that your screen will start to get a bit scratched if you play games that require fast action with the stylus.
    I have put protectors on mine from the start and I can see how damaged the screen would have been without them on there but luckily my actual screen is scratchless and smudgeless. :)

    I absolutely LOVE this gaming system! There are so many different games (from Tetris to Brain Age) for all ages and types of gamers out there. It also comes in a semi-wide variety of colours (white, black, silver, blue, red, metallic rose) to personalize it that much further!

    Worth it!

    I love this thing. So light, so tiny, so wonderful. Yeah, I play chick games on it... nothing too hardcore (think Animal Farm, Final Fantasy, Rune Factory). When I went away to school this was a lifesaver on the plane rides there and back home again. Super fun, definitely recommended.

    I love this thing. It looks very sexy and adult, for a gaming system. I don't feel like I'm clinging on to childhood when i pull this sucker out in public. My husband bought it for me as a birthday present, along with Brain Age, and I enjoy playing it. I have a few other games as well. I like the dual screens, the touch screen is really cool, but I'm not sure how i feel about voice commands, I'm not quite 'there' in regards to talking to my electronic devices. (Also not a huge fan of voice dialing, so if you're into that, you might enjoy this aspect.) Although I'll admit I've played a game that involved 'blowing' on a windmill through the microphone, and found it charming.
    Great for sitting in the doctor's office, or unwinding (sudoku, anyone?) after a long day. And my husband and my MOTHER! (who is a grandmother) both like to steal it from time to time!

    I'm usually not a gamer until I got the black Nintendo DS for my birthday last year. I truly love this product. Its an amazing invention, especially for those soduko players. It helps me through the hour long subway rides to work. I would recommend it to anyone who's looking to engage in more interactive games asides from the consoles (xbox, wii).
