Author Topic: DSi: Who's getting one? -I got one!-  (Read 8254 times)

Selling my DS lite to my sister and buying a DSi with my birthday money.

I already have 260$ ready for it.

I don't really see a point in spending a bunch of money on a system I pretty much have...



She wants it, I don't really use it anymore.
How much is she buying it for?

What? The  DSi has bigger screens, more ram, two cameras, an Internet browser, no gba slot, downloadable apps and it comes in hideous blue and emo black. You just said you pretty much have it because the DSi is packed full of awesome and you can't afford it. The DSi is a system that is truly touched by the hand of god that only the rightious ones may use.


(Im just kidding. The only way I was able to afford one was by selling fallout 3 D:)

More ram? You mean a more powerful cpu.

I read in EGM or game informer that it has more ram.

i might be getting one for my birthday or Christmas.

More ram? You mean a more powerful cpu.
It's CPU is clocked at 133 MHZ, And it has 16 MB of RAM.

DS and DS lite have two processors 4 MB of RAM. One processor is clocked at 33MHZ and is for 2D DS games and GBA games. The other is clocked at 67 MHZ.

No im pretty sure one cpu is for ds games and the other is for gba, Thats why dsi don't need 2.

Yeah I don't care if you're joking or not.

Bigger screens - don't care
More ram - don't care
Two cameras - I have two cameras for this
Internet browser - It'd be kinda hard to use the internet with a tiny handheld system. Yeah, other systems do it. No, I don't care.
No GBA slot - so not ONLY can I not pop in Pokemon Red... I can't play any of my GBA games?
Downloadable apps - either it's a game (which is sorta pointless) or it's something I can do with another device
Colors - Ironically, I have a blue DS and a black DSLite  :cookieMonster:

-Apathy-
I don't know, the DSi is a pretty slick piece of hardware. I wouldn't mind having one simply to play some of the old DS games I have, and to have something that I can spend $15 on to get some old game I see at gamestop and have some fun with. More fun than something I'd buy for my Touch and less involved than buying something on Steam.

Plus, it's good for road trips.
