Nintendo DS Lite Black Console

Great item, well worth it. Touch screen is a great extra. I bought this a couple of months ago and i still find myself clicking away on a daily basis. Great for all ages young or old.

The product was brand new, as described. I wanted a new DS and was pleased to find you could get used as well as new items on the site.

Excellent buy - good price, excellent item, excellent condition and already having hours of fun with.
Excellent ebayer, great product description and quick delivery following payment.

i bought this nintendo ds console for my daughter she loves it to be quiet honest she's never off it lol a very good buy indeed . x

We finally gave in to the pressure of being the 'only' family in Northern Europe without a Nintendo (or a Game Boy or a wii or....) and decided to look on e-bay for a lightly used console, preferably with games included. We have been thrilled with the black ds lite console we received - it does loads of stuff which we and the kids are happy with - they can be mindless with 'nintendogs' or do something useful with a Maths practice thing and the list goes on endlessly, as far as we can tell, with most games and extras coming on to e-bay if you are prepared to wait a couple of hours! We wouldn't normally buy something expensive and potentially 'dodgy' off e-bay, but the feedback checked out and all turned out very well indeed. We would all (6 of us, ranging from 4 to 44) heartily recommend the Nimtendo, and buying it from e-bay was a great saver.

I must say that when i first heard about the DS coming out that i wasnt really interested, but after a while everyone seemed to have one.. including my friends! I wanted a PSP however the cost was far too much then i could afford and finally decided to get a DS lite in black.. Well its just FANTASTIC! I didnt think i would love it as much as i do, im more of a Sony console fan but this console is just great, its interactive, great graphics and has a huuuugeee range of games for it and can suit everyone! However they now come in different colours and if id known i would have got a red one.. But its just so much fun getting family and friends togethor to use them, it really brings people togethor and i reccommend anyone to buy them no matter how old you are, you can always get a lot of fun out of it! Plus it is portable, which means you can take it anywhere, its especially useful on very long car or train journeys! Highly reccommend.

AN EXCELLENT PRODUCT FOR ALL NINTENDO GAMERS GAME ALL DS LITE.

ITEMS DESCRIBED HONESTLY.

ALL ITEMS AND LITTLE GADGETS ALSO SUPPLIED AND ALSO INFORMATION ON HOW TO LOAD, TRANSFER AND SAVE.

VERY QUICK DELIVERY.

I AM VERY PLEASED WITH MY PURCHASE, AND HAVE SAVED ALOT OF TIME AND MONEY WITH THIS WAY OF SHOPPING

WOULD RECOMMEND VERY HIGHLY TO OTHER EBAYERS

PLEASURE TO SHOP WITH THIS EBAYER MANY THANKS

It works perfectly and the touch pad cuts out no very often so its not a problem, It has some scratches and marks but I don't really mind. Good buy

It gets your brain going.
Relieves boredom.
I got it for xmas present, yes i know its early only being September, but i like to get the presents over and done with.

Perfect for long car journeys, keeps the kids entertained for hours. When they go to bed, I get to play with it. A definate recommend.

The graphics are so much better on the light than the old Ds, therefore there is a much better gaming experience.

The DS is great for children, but the PSP is 100x better!!! The graphics on the DS is crap and so are the games.

This ebayer emailed me, immediately when they discovered a minor mark on this item. Their honesty was so unusual & refreshing i felt compelled to write this.
I have since added this seller to my favourites, of which there are only 3.
This seller also refunded my postage fee as a good-will gesture, something which i very much appreciated. I only hope that more ebayers take a leaf out of their book. WELL DONE for showing the meaning of customer service.

I am in my 60s and feel I am brain dead, so decided to buy the Nintendo DS Lite so that I could get my brain working again. I tried buying brain games for the computer but I like the small DS lite and the brain games that can be bought for it. I'm glad I bought it, it's great!

the seller emailed me and kept in good contact. payment was sent and I recieved the goods 48hrs after payment as i paid on a sunday. the goods where in very good condition. excellent

The Nintendo DS is a handheld game console by Nintendo. The system has two displays (the lower acts as a touch screen), built-in microphone, and support WiFi. The Nintendo DS is backward compatible with Game Boy Advance Games.

Despite a great system, the original Nintendo DS looks very bulky and unattractive. The “fat” design of the Nintendo DS makes it hard for people to carry it around and unattractive compare to other popular gadgets such as Apple’s iPod and Sony’s PSP.

This year, Nintendo released a redesigned model called the Nintendo DS Lite. The DS Lite provides the same functions as the original Nintendo DS except it is now smaller and featured brighter screens. The new design is a lot like Apple’s product (Not that there’s anything wrong with that).

Nintendo DS is 42% less volume (size: 133mm x 73.9mm x 21.5mm) and 21% lighter compare to the original Nintendo DS. The stylus is of the DS Lite is a lot longer, wider and heavier (43% bigger) which is easier to hold and use.

he Nintendo DS Lite retain the 3” size displays used by the original DS. The DS Lite featured a brighter displays compared to the original DS. Because the DS Lite screen so bright, it might be a little uncomfortable to play at the highest brightness level so Nintendo offer a four selectable brightness level to the DS Lite display. All brightness levels are still brighter than the original DS.

The start and select buttons are now rounded and place on the lower rights for easier access. The power button is now a slider and relocated to the right edge.

The Game Boy Advance Game Paks slot at the bottom allows you to play Nintendo Game Boy Advance Paks. The slot is by default covered to protect the slot from dust or foreign material. Due to the smaller design of DS Lite, Game Boy Advance carts will stick out from the GBA slot. It will not affect the way you play, however it may looked unpleasant to some people.

The Nintendo DS Lite battery provides 19 hours of play on 4 hours charge on the lowest brightness setting, 5 - 8 hours on the highest brightness setting. The power indicator and recharge indicator is clearly visible even when the device is closed.

Recommended Software

I’m not going to write a lot about games since this entry is about the DS Lite hardware not the software. However, I’d like to recommend some games to people who are new to Nintendo DS:

* New Super Mario.
* Mario Kart DS.
* Brain Age.

If you’re in Japan, Opera will release a browser for Nintendo DS on 24 July 2006. Opera for Nintendo DS will allow you to use your Nintendo DS Lite to browse the web using a Wi-Fi connection.

Conclusion

The Nintendo DS Lite is definitely worth buying for people who are looking for a portable gaming console with bright screens and long battery life. The main reason I chose to buy a Nintendo DS Lite is because of classic Nintendo game titles such as Mario, Donkey Kong, and Zelda.

Current original DS owners might be wondering whether it is worth to upgrade their DS to the DS Lite. I personally would rather use the money to buy a new games rather than upgrading my system. If you decide to upgrade to the DS Lite, you can transfer your WiFi Connection data ID from one DS to another, you can follow the guide from NintendoWiFi.com.

Keep the kids occupied when you are busy, or on car journeys when they get bored easily. We now have one each, and play some of the games as a family.

THis seller claims the money cant come out until you give her feedback, and then nothing happens and your money has gone out of the account and you hear nothing from her.

thanks for the speedy delivery. it was my first order on e-bay and it certainly put my mind at ease for further orders!!

da nintendo was gd. just da screen was broke but had it fixed and works great. delivery was quick as well so i am was happy wiv this item.

i was looking for a reasonably priced console in good condition when i bid on this console i got a very good deal. The item is brand new in excellent condition comes with all originals eg charger, manuals and games and the seller was also excellent as item was delivered by special post next day delivery i am very very pleased with my purchase

Well pleased, extremely fast delivery and came as expected. However, I have been told that I could have got the console and maybe a game or two for the amount I bought it for so feel free to send me a game, Super Mario or Brain Training (God I need it), just if you want to be a better seller! If not, hydeo ho x

My son wanted a nintendo Ds cause his sister had one. We decided to buy off ebay because the instore prices were so high. It is fantastic. Easy to use and came with all the accesories you need. Brilliant purchase, easy transaction

I love this console so much that this is the second one that I have bought. The first one still works perfectly but I am not unwilling to share it!

I love all the brain training games you can get for it and I have seen a marked improvement in myself. There is also a wide range of adult games which are made for the DS. I love the fact that anybody can pick one up and easily navigate the screens, it is definately meant for all ages and ranges of people.

The stylus makes this console unique and very easy to use. There are other controls for use with different games which is pretty standard and very easy to use. Overall I recommend the DS Lite over the DS!

i love the touch screen and the brain training game is excellent. Highly recommend to everybody. A++++++++++
