Nintendo DS Lite Second Look

New! Sure, sequels are never quite as good as the original, but by popular request, here's part two of my Nintendo DS Lite video review!

I did my best to cover some frequently asked questions this time around. This includes the GBA cart slot stick-out, the comfort, the thickness, and, yet again, the brightness. And while my voice is somehow even more bizarrely whispered this time and the disembodied hands thing may doom me to a fence-guy-from-Home-Improvement future, I think you'll enjoy it. Thanks for all of your questions!


(And here's a lower-quality YouTube mirror for those of you having Quicktime trouble.)

Again, feel free to leave comments if you have any additional questions! Enjoy!

hey, love your videos. just thought id tell you that your link to part three doesnt work. maybe its my computer, but i dunno. great job! make more!
Anonymous Anonymous 6/19/2006 10:14 AM  
I own the original ds which i absolutely love... Mario Kart is the best. I was thinking about buying the light just for the extra brightness but decided not to until i saw your review. Its absolutely amazing how much better the light looks!! NO MORE SQUINTING!! YAY!! So i just placed my order at bestbuy.com!
Anonymous Anonymous 6/19/2006 10:23 AM  
ok im kinda stuck here. i love my DS but i think that the DS lite look really cool but how much better is it besides the fact that its lighter and brighter or is that the only difference? Because if thats the only difference then i think i might stick with my regular DS untill the Lite goes down in price. Oh and Fruit Loops rock!!!! lol

That was the best review I've ever seen! Nice fruit loops! Well, if u don't have confetti, better improvise. If any of you want to learn more about any of the next-gen consoles, visit my website at www.earl.co.nr (formerly www.hotgameconsoles.co.nr)

GREAT review!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SOOOOOOOOOO much information!!!!

Can you put a stylus comarison in your next NDS Lite?
Anonymous Anonymous 6/24/2006 4:57 PM  
the battery must last a very long time on the ds lite. i bought one on friday. i charged it up til the orange light went out. i've been playing the DS alot since then (i got mariokart with it) and the battery still hasn't run out.

the lowest setting is fine. if i was out travelling in a car surrounded by bright light, i would need it on a higher setting. but i've heard that even if it was on the highest setting it would last about as long as an old DS

I got here via google, the review was excellent, answered all the questions I would have had to ask about the screen although I bought one just the other day. Cable man/guy, presentation was better than the crap you see on TV.

Hello there! I am Braggie! *hellooo*
I hate to feel like I sound like a broken record and risk the chance to repeat others but I am intending to purchase a DS Lite for Christmas! *wowow* but was just wanting to ask, what I see as 'a DS Pro'! ... I am going to buy a UK/PAL DS Lite but I am interested in buying Pokemon Diamond/Pearl from Japan but was wondering two things:

1) can this game be played on this DS, if not can I make it do so?

2) as this game is a JAP model naturaly it will be all in Japanese! *duh!* and was wondering if you know how to change the game language to english? If possible could you help me do it, thank you soooo much!

Braggie x

P.S could you email me with your responce: wavebird64@yahoo.co.uk

Can the ds play music or just hold it?

I just bought a DS Lite in Japan and the saleswoman told me that I would not be able to play American games on it. After I questioned her a bit she changed that to they don't guarantee American games work on it. So I don't know what she was trying to accomplish - but I trust you guys more than a drone here in Japan.

I haven't gotten around the changing the language to English yet.

Great site by the way.Thanks.

how do you get more money to buy stuff on nintendogs?
Anonymous Anonymous 8/28/2008 3:15 AM  
we don't think it is reasonable to spend hundreds thousands dollars to buy a decorating watch. you can use those money to invest in other industry which will return you good profit.
watches ebayare made by the rating 1:1 according to the original watches, and you can't distinguish the original and the fake watches when you look at the surface of the watches.
