Advantages: Family friendly and very easy to use

Disadvantages: battery life isn't great

Nintendo ds lite is a big improvement on the nintendo ds which was bulky and felt a bit like holding a brick in your hands. The DS is very easy to use and is definately a family friendly game console a small child can use it, teenager, adult even the grandparents can find something for themselves to play.

The controls are easy to use and the holder for the touch screen pen is in the best place underneath the console, the only downside is that these are fiddly and if you put it down without putting it back in the console you stand the chance of coming back and not being able to find it again so buying extra ones might be an idea. The touch screen is very responsive but marks very easily so using the stylus is a must unless you want to be finding some LCD screen cleaner for it.

The battery life on this console is average but you can buy larger batteries for it and they are very easy to replace (small screw on the underneath).

Personally I have never used the wi-fi connection as part of the console as I have never found a need for it so can't comment on this feature.

The nintendo ds has over 4000 games to choose from so you should be able to keep everyone happy and with the likes of R4 cards you can even have more than 1 game to play at a time. For what you get I think that the console is very reasonably priced and for the extras you get on the DSi I personally stick with this.

Summary: Overall a very good handheld family friendly console
