evandixon Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Do you have a Nintendo DSi, or plan to get one soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aarux Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I have one... I mainly got it to put music on it, though. It's pretty cool, though. You can go on the Internet, play music, take pictures, and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arceus010 Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Got one on the first day, love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HottSushiz Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 (edited) I was one of few thousands, that said they are 100% not getting the DSi, i was doubting it, and stuff like that, but every time i saw the advertisements, it actually looked pretty cool, so i watch a review, and boy i really want one now, and that matte finish looks so smooth! but i would actually miss my high glossy sexy DS, and i do love how long the thing last, but the DSi only last around 4-9 hours, varies in brightness. The main thing that's really bothering me, is the price it is ridicules, here in New Zealand it's $399! but there's this awesome deal at EBgames, where if you trade in your old DS lite, then the DSi is only $259, and the price of the DS lite is $239, plus 1 free game, i think i may wait a year, when the price drops, or if there is a DSiware application that grabs my attention.

Enkidu Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Wow 399$?! it only cost me 169$ ( DS lite is 129.99$ ) and you get 25$ more towards your Dsi if you trade in a light, so it only cost me like 100 bucks. DSi is pretty cool though, Psp has Monster Hunter though, so DSi can't compete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fallen Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Nope, no DSi. I'm actually not planning on getting one unless my DS Lite breaks. No point really to get one for any other reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eon-Rider Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I actually did end up getting one even though I was pretty sure I wouldn't. It was actually my mum who brought the topic up during dinner which lead to me actually getting one surprisingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damio Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I will get one, but only because I have both of the other DSes but not any time soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destati Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 PSP play movies iPod play songs Why do I need something that does the same, but at a fraction of the quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eighty4 Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 PSP play moviesiPod play songs Why do I need something that does the same, but at a fraction of the quality Because it's idiotic to carry more than 1 device for such a small and useless task.

pokemonfan Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 eighty4 that is somewhat agreeable but destati has a point. I dont have a DSi but my friend is confident he will get one for his birthday. Very confident. It is kind of annoying because the way he talks about it he sounds like his parents have to give him a DSi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destati Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Because it's idiotic to carry more than 1 device for such a small and useless task. The DSi has far lesser sound quality than the iPod and I don't even know if it can play movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zafur Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I'm not sure if it's worth it. I have a DS and DS Lite... Kinda lame already that I got a Lite. So it's hinge cracked... I'm not sure whether to trade it in to get a DSi in blue for $100 or wait for the price drop to, I'm guessing, $130, to be able to get it in my favourite colour. Or to get it at all.

Okami Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 My grandmother has a DSi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I will get a DSi when (1) CycloDS supports it and (2) when my Lite breaks or needs replacement. I need my homebrew stuff, otherwise I'll be sad cat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zengetsu Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I dont think I'm gonna get one maybe later on especially when the price goes down, but one thing I hate about them though is the have no GBA slot to play your GBA games or migrate pokemon! besides that from what I've herd the features on it work great and everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziz Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Never in my life...GBA games where classics and I have a TON of them. Plus, loss of migration feature sucks. I'll stick with my black and red ds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orcamania5 Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 I have bought my black DSi at the day it came out. I don't have much DS game carts, but I enjoy playing with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evandixon Posted June 21, 2009 Author Share Posted June 21, 2009 The DSi has far lesser sound quality than the iPod and I don't even know if it can play movies. If you use headphones, then it is just as good quality as any MP3 player can provide. The only downside is that you can't turn the volume up higher. And it can't play videos. On the bright side, it is a better planned console than the DS Lite. They blew it on the lite in my opinion (hardware-wise). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a Max Media Dock, and it works fine (I only had a little trouble with the encoder at first. Remember: If you use a GUI encoder, put the command-line encoder in the same directory as the GUI).
