I got a nintendo DS because I wanted to get brain training - I woudn't say i am particularly into computer games as such, but I decided to get this 'game' because I love reading and also travel quite a lot on trains for work, so I thought having 100 books in one little gadget was bound to come in handy!

And how right I was...

The functionality of the ds when used as a 'reader' is very simple, you just turn it sideways and use it like a book. You can use the pointer to turn pages or you can confogure it to use almost any of the keys. Finding books is easy with a virtual book shelf and a little quiz to help you decide what to read if you can't choose.

The text size is fine for me but it may be a little small for some.

The price is fantastic when you add up how much it would cost you to buy each of the books separately, but i wish there was another cartridge for more choice.

Overall, this is fantastic value and very easy to use but probably only for book worms as it is not really a game!
