The System
The Nintendo DSi is a high-powered handheld video game system in a sleek, folding design-loaded with features designed to create a unique gaming experience. Like the DS and DS Lite before it, the DSi features Nintendo’s trademark stylus-driven touchscreen technology, but determined to make portable gaming simultaneously larger and smaller in all the right places, Nintendo has also created the DSi with significantly larger screens and an even slimmer body design than its earlier cousins. Other features include the ability to snap photos with built-in cameras, edit and send them to friends, play back your music with Nintendo DSi Sound, or browse the Internet with the Nintendo DSi Browser. From playing games to just playing around, the Nintendo DSi does it all.
Features:
The DSi’s Two Digital Cameras
The most noticeable feature of the slim Nintendo DSi system are its two cameras – one camera is situated on the external body pointing away from the user, and the second one points at the user when the device is flipped open. As the first truly interactive digital camera in a video game system, the DSi Cameras feature 10 different interactive “lenses” that can manipulate your photos, offering an easy way to take and share your photos with family and friends. The cameras also present people with unprecedented ways to interact with their games, and in the process provide developers with a new tool to devise creative games and experiences. If the touch screen gave Nintendo DS a sense of feel and the microphone allowed it to hear, the two cameras give Nintendo DSi the sense of sight.
DSi Sound
Another enhanced feature is the Nintendo DSi Sound application, which serves as both an interactive voice recorder and music player that allows users to play with their music while they listen to it. Users can access different audio filters or control the pitch and speed of recorded voice or music files to alter voices or change the tempo of a song. The mic is located between the two screens when the device is flipped open, and there is also a stereo headphone output that lets users listen to music saved on an SD card, even with the screen shut.
The DSiWare
In the world of software, Nintendo DSi will be the platform for the most relevant and fun on-the-go games and applications. The Nintendo DSiWare application will populate Nintendo DSi with software that can be downloaded using Nintendo DSi Points directly to the portable system, just as WiiWare has with Nintendo’s Wii console. Developers big and small are invited to create software that makes use of the properties and functions of the hardware. Nintendo DSiWare games and applications will be available at a range of values, starting at 200 points.
Games and Backwards Compatibility
In addition to downloadable games, Nintendo DSi is able to play games made specifically for the system and sold at retail. The system can also play most Nintendo DS games, and will have access to a library of more than 850 titles originally made for that system. As an example of the quality of games that DSi players can expect to see both from both Nintendo and third-party game developers, at the launch of the DSi Nintendo also released Rhythm Heaven. A wildly popular rhythm game in Japan, where it has sold nearly 2 million copies since its release in mid 2008, Rhythm Heaven features catchy tunes, charming characters, and a wide variety of rhythm games as it makes maximum use of the DSi’s functionality.
Facebook
Nintendo DSi owners have even more ways to share their experiences with friends and family. Using an Internet-connected Nintendo DSi system and the Nintendo DSi Camera application, Facebook members can take pictures with either of the system’s two cameras and upload their photos directly to their Facebook profile. While reviewing pictures they’ve stored in the Nintendo DSi Camera album, which includes photos taken by users and manipulated using the built-in interactive lenses, users can simply tap the Facebook icon on the system’s touch screen to instantly transmit photos to the user’s Facebook profile. The user’s system must be configured to a wireless broadband Internet connection for the transmission of photos.

The Nintendo DSi was released on April 5th, 2009. Overall this system isn’t the best thing to come out of Nintendo by far. Nintendo is a kid system, I prefer Sony or Microsoft rather then Nintendo. From my experience with the DSi I overall don’t come close to liking it. The fact is that the picture quality isn’t the best. I mean I know its not meant for photography, but you should still be able to see what you are trying to take. Another thing is the distortion is really bad for two reasons. One if you stretch something out far enough it is too blurry to even see. Plus if you are like me you will get bored and tired of it in 20 minutes. The sound is the same thing, though it has great quality you get tired of it in under 20 minutes. There is also no Game Boy slot which I don’t mind, seeing as it’s a DSi not GAMEBOYi. The thing I find the most useful is the music and the SD card slot which I think is pretty cool. Overall the DSi is no improvement from the DS Lite. I will say there are more options for the DSi then the DS Lite. I wouldn’t recommend this very far, but if you like Nintendo then you should get it. Though to me it’s a pretty dull and boring system. I also hate how people think the PSP is bad. It has better graphics and better games then the DSi does.
Average grade: 3.5/10.

i was very excited to receive my nintendo dsi in the mail, little did i know that they sent me the box and i was like wow what a cardboard box they fit it in. As i opened the cardboard box, I noticed that there wasn’t a dsi… there wasnt even a charger. So how good is the dsi you say? horrible i can’t even turn on the cardboard box, it doesn’t have a cool light and doesn’t have a power button… what can i say, they didn’t really send it to me. Make sure when you get your product make sure that it wasn’t tampered with or actually in there before you get excited about it. Very displeased and not professional. 1 star in my books.

I wanted to purchase this just now, but was unable to do so.
It seems that Amazon (and many other companies) has decided to make sure that Christmas comes early for mail thieves by preventing anyone from shipping to a PO Box – even if it is the same as a billing address on file, etc etc.
Instead, they seem to want it shipped directly to the unit I’m living in. Yeah right – we’ve already had to have the mailbox re-keyed and the mail room has been broken into three times. I don’t intend on being the next victim.
Apparently they care more about the usurious and greedy credit card companies and their billing policies (tho they also blame warranty cards. Hah, yeah right) than the actual customer. Sorry Amazon, I’m not willing to take the fall in a mail-room breakin so you can kiss VISA’s backside while they continue to do nothing meaningful to prevent identity theft (and still send junk-mail pre-approved credit card applications in the name of animals to people I know who put their pets on a list as a joke …)
You guys lost a sale. More than one, considering I might want software for it someday… I’m going to gamestop. Maybe I’ll ask them if they have battletoads for the DS yet while I’m there.

Great, buy a more expensive piece of hardware so you can download games that are locked to it. This is a great step in the direction of renting all your games. No thanks. Plus, you lose backwards compatibility of the GBA. Shorter battery life than the DS Lite! The DS lite is a cheaper and better portable system.
