[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 330202, member: 1233"] husband used a bonus to buy a ds lite a year or so ago. They both love it. The big push for the ds is because the inlaws keep getting thank you a ds game each year. He is too polite to tell them he doesn't have a system to play it on, and he doesn't want to hurt their feelings by returning it. Knowing this, and given difficult child's internet sneaking, we are fine with a ds lite. thank you, luckily, does not want the dsi. Has no need for the internet, according to him, because he never wants to go anywhere online that he cannot already go. He also has seen the camera (gma has a dsi) and is far from impressed. He has had a digital camera for years, so that one is not as good as his "old" one. Lucky me. Saved from nintendo strife. There are used ones. If one comes available in the next week or two at gamestop then we might do that. Cost savings are not that much, so we may just do a new one. I kind of prefer the new because nintendo is great with warranties (Jessie's GBA had a screen die and it was replaced and overnighted back to us less than 10 days after we sent it in, and the warranty was extended for a year past that date on the entire system.) Nintendo has also impressed us with parental support from back when Wiz was signing himself up for things on their site. We learned of this because they sent us an email, LOL at Wiz' attempts to fool them. I do know that the ds lite has a wifi card that can be purchased. Wiz tried to slip that past my folks too. He somehow thought they would not know what a wifi card was, or what the packaging meant. LOL at him again! They had computers before they had grandkids - he ALWAYS forgets this and the fact that Gpa reads computer catalogs for fun (Aspie, ya think?!). Anyway, thanks for the input. The ds lite will do what he wants. No need for the dsi, in my opinion. Happy New Year (or Mew Year as Miss Gracie Lou Freebush says. For some reason she is talkative tonight. She almost NEVER talks unless she locks herself in somewhere. ) [/QUOTE]
