this new system is much better than the old ds because of it's smaller sleeker design, with it's brighter screen it makes the old ds look bad. everything is perfect on it!

I think the DS light is a heck a lot better than the old one because it is brighter, you can controll the light, smaller, and a biger stick.I reomend every one who has an old DS buy this one.Plus, it looks a lot cooler....

Strengths:	Brighter screen compared to DS, fun and inexpensive games, wireless mode is fun and easy to connect. User friendly in all areas
Weaknesses:	Watch out if you have big hands, the DS lite is so tiny that my normal fingers get cramped after an hour of game play

The system itself is awesome, with so many possibilities. I played Brain Academy on wireless with another friend and it was awesome with no problems connecting. The system combines both screens seemlessly with a lot of the games and incorporates both very well. I give it full recommendations

This gaming system is pretty amazing to me considering I'm coming from the Sega Game Gear (I know). My buddy bought the older version of the DS and was quite taken with it. When this came out, I had to give it a shot.I was able to do a side by side comparison and I must say I'm glad I held out. I saw some other reviews on here say the graphics are better. This is absolutely not true. The graphics are exactly the same... however the lite version is much MUCH brighter. Perfect for car rides.The add-ons I speak of in the "strengths" section are not just accessories... I speak of things other then gaming you can do with the lite. Opera (internet browsing) has been released in Japan and is fully functional. It's an early version and can't do everything you computer does... and probably never will... bet its getting there. It can already run a version of AIM with some restrictions (mind its an early version).I mention inexpensive games because you can have the new ones for 35 bucks. This compared to 50 with the other gaming device can add up. You can also feel a little more comfortable with buying used ones online because they can't hardly scratch a cartridge. Battery life was also pretty impressive. I experienced over 10 hours of gaming on one charge before the light turning on. I don't see how someone could hardly ask for more at this price.I've very happy with my purchase and would do it again if I had the choice
