Review of Nintendo DS Lite Handheld Console

Nintendo DS Lite Handheld Console

The Nintendo DS is the fast selling console ever in Japan. When the DS Lite was released, it sold out instantly, with queues of over 1,000 people a common sight. Whatever it is, Nintendo has it. Having gamely struggled to love a PSP for 18 months I switched over to the DS Lite and have found gaming heaven.

So what makes the DS Lite any better? I think the main thing is that Nintendo know exactly what portable games should be about. Grab Partners in Time, Mario Kart, Super Mario Bros or Animal Crossing and you'll have yourself an object lesson in the design of handheld games. Fun, quick to pick up, clear graphics, replayability in spades.

When the Nintendo DS was first announced it was dismissed by many as a white elephant - with a gimmicky interface and underpowered graphics. Over 15 million sales later and the story is a little different. The DS Lite is fully compatible with all existing Nintendo DS (and Game Boy Advance) games but it's smaller, sleeker and lighter - with a new design that perfectly matches the Nintendo Wii console. The most impressive feature is the new backlit screens which offer the sharpest image ever seen on a portable console. The DS Lite is available in three separate colours: White, Black and Pink.

Without doubt the Nintendo DS is the best and most innovative handheld console ever to be released to the world so far, the technology works superbly well and developers and gamers alike are gladfully relishing the experience of the DS.

The battery life is good too, and the unit's case seems fairly robust. A real winner.

You will be very happy if you plan to buy a Nintendo DS Lite even if you are not a original ds owner. I give the Nintendo DS Lite Handheld Console a 10/10 and I gladly recommend it to my friends and family.
