What are people complaining about?
I got a DSi a few days ago and cannot honestly see why people have complained at all. I bought a DSL to replace my DS and the DSi to replace it. having had all three releases, I can honestly say the vastly improved menu interface is by far worth the upgrade alone. And come on people, show a bit of initiative here. If you want to play GBA game then get yourself onto Ebay and get a GBA or better still an R4/M3. Afterall, it isn't illegal to posess copies of games you already own. Sure the camera sucks, but when you bought your phone did you think "This'll be good for making calls" or "Gee, I sure do like the camera quality". If you want a camera that takes ridiculously big photographs you can get them for £50 nowadays.The only true downside I can see in this is that I can no longer play guitar hero on it. But then again, compared to the fullsized version it's not all that great. But that's a different review :)All in all I think it was worth it, being about the same price as I bought my DSL and having solved one of the key issues I had with the DS and the DSL. Intergrating the browser was also another smart move along with SD functionality.

I bought this for my 10 year old son
As above I bought this for my son.The DSI is a nice looking compact handheld console.When my son's DSi arrived and my husband decided he wanted one, so I bought him a red one.Well 3 months later My son no longer played with his anymore, this was not due to a lack of games as he had plenty of those, the novelty wore off even quicker for my husband, who only used his about 6 times.I don't really have anything bad to say about these handheld DSI's other than I am not sure where it belongs in the market today.Especially with all the new Tablets on the markets i.e the kindle fire, samsung galaxy tab, which are competitively priced and the tablets being able to do much the same as the DSi's and more, for example all the apps you can download and play games go on the internet, read books the list is endless,So for my money i would by pass the Nintendo DSI and go straight for a Tablet.

After all these years it's still going strong.
For anyone interested in how long this model of Nintendo lasts, look no further!I've had this for four years now and as long as it sees the case every time it's not being used it lasts like new all the way along. It's more of a novelty of course now as more advanced (though not better in my opinion) models have come out since. But for a bit of an old style game when I have a spare hour it really can't be beaten.The spare stylus came in handy just last year when I finally lost the original, I was glad it served a purpose, and the buttons hold up very nicely. The cartridge slot at the back has not lost any of its connection and so all my original games I bought with it still work perfectly. The matte black finish has many scratches but this is to be expected, overall I am impressed that the integrity of the hard shall is still strong. As well as the cartridge slot the other ports also retain connection like new.So although it's a dinosaur in the scheme of things, I'm still as happy with it as I was the day I nought it, even if it only sees use once every few months now.

AN 8 YR OLD GIRLS DELIGHT
Our granddaughter is a very pretty and dainty girl who had quietly eyed her 3 brothers Nintendo DSi's without hardly ever being allowed to get her hands on them - you know what young boys are like when it comes to the noble art of sharing with their little sister! So when she got a console for her 8th birthday she was delighted and I am not quite certain what games she has but her both assures us they are much more lady-like than her siblings 'biff-bang-wallop' variety of gratuitous violence and the like.We got her console in pink, as it is her favourite colour and to ensure the machine is not commandeered by her brothers when they can't find theirs, as boys would not be seen dead with a girly pink one! The choice of present and colour have been a great success and something she has had and will I am certain continue to get a lot of pleasure from.Much has been said in the reviews here extolling the technical virtues by those far more capable of doing so than myself but from our perspective we are delighted with the purchase and with its quality and entertainment value.

Sorely dissapointed
I purchased this as a Christmas present for my son in October 2013. Once received we tested it to make it worked which it did. Once opened on Christmas day we soon realised that the microphone didn't work making the brain training game useless.We also noticed fairly early on that the battery had very little life in it.I contacted the seller as the reason I bought it was it was in a 'like new' state. I beg to differ.To be fair to them, at this point, they offered to replace it but I explained this was tricky given that the present was from Father Christmas and it would be awkward to return. I simply asked for a new battery.I'm still waiting nearly 3 months later. I have a machine with no microphone and a poor battery life that I paid in the region of £80 for. I was even offered a game by way of apology...................... I'm still waiting.I honestly feel very let down. We had saved for along time to buy this for my son. He had been asking for over a year for a Dsi and we couldn't justify the cost but eventually saved enough to buy him the most decent second hand one we could, just to feel like we wasted our hard earned cash anyway.I wouldn't have minded had we actually received a new battery and replacement game but we never have.I have waited what I believe to be 'a very long time' before writing this review, plenty of time for them to have put it right in some way.Very disappointed.
