System
With Nintendo DS Lite, dual screens and touch-screen technology allow you to interact with games like never before. Wireless communication allows you to experience real-time multiplayer gameplay, and the free Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service allows you to compete against players from around the globe.

Dual Screens:
Two incredibly bright LCD screens offer one of the most groundbreaking gameplay advances ever developed. Each 3-inch screen can reproduce a true 3D view, with impressive 3D renderings that can surpass images displayed on the Nintendo 64.

Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection:
Ready to take on the world? Now, with Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, you can connect wirelessly, chat and play with Nintendo DS owners across the globe. All you need to play is a Nintendo DS and a Wi-Fi-ready game. There are no subscription fees -- the service is free!

Touch Screen Technology:
The lower screen offers something never before provided by any dedicated game device: touch-screen capabilities. You no longer have to rely on just buttons to move your character or shift perspectives. Navigate menus or access inventory items simply by touching the screen with a stylus or fingertip. The possibilities are limited only by developers' imaginations. The touch screen features a tougher film cover for durability, and the included stylus is stored in the back of the unit.

Microphone Port:
A built-in microphone port means that with Nintendo DS, you only need to tell your games what to do. The Nintendo DS microphone gives you even more ways to interact with your favorite games.

Wireless Network:
With Nintendo DS Lite, you can connect with a local wireless network of up to 16 players. The wireless range can be an incredible 30 to 100 feet and for some games, multiplayer requires just one Nintendo DS game card.

Note: Nintendo DS Lite wireless communication, including PictoChat, is not private and is not monitored by Nintendo. We recommend that you never reveal any personal information or arrange to meet a stranger.

Rich Stereo Sound:
Nintendo DS Lite sound capabilities allow for greatly expanded use of voices and music, and a richer, more immersive game experience. Stereo speakers allow for virtual surround sound and a plug for headphones transmits stereo sound.

Backward Compatibility:
Nintendo DS Lite features a separate media port for Game Boy Advance cartridges, allowing you to play all your favorite Game Boy Advance games in single-player mode.

Technical Specs:

  • Size (closed): 133 millimeters (5.2 inches) wide, 73.9 millimeters (2.9 inches) long, 21.5 millimeters (0.85 inches) tall.
  • Top Screen: A backlit, 3-inch, transmissive TFT color LCD with 256 x 192 pixel resolution and .24 mm dot pitch, capable of displaying 260,000 colors.
  • Touch Screen: Same specs as top screen, but with a transparent analog touch screen.
  • Wireless Communication: IEEE 802.11 and Nintendo's proprietary format; wireless range is 30 to 100 feet, depending on circumstances; multiple users can play multiplayer games using just one DS game card.
  • Controls: Touch screen, embedded microphone for voice recognition, A/B/X/Y face buttons, plus control pad, L/R shoulder buttons, Start and Select buttons. The stylus is 1 centimeter longer and 2 millimeters thicker than the stylus of the original Nintendo DS.
  • Input/Output: Ports for both Nintendo DS game cards and Game Boy Advance game paks, terminals for stereo headphones and microphone. A removable cover for the Game Boy Advance game pak slot provides added protection from dust and other foreign materials.
  • Other Features: Embedded PictoChat software that allows up to 16 users within local range of one another to chat at once; embedded real-time clock; date, time and alarm; touch-screen calibration.
  • CPUs: One ARM9 and one ARM7.
  • Sound: Stereo speakers providing virtual surround sound, depending on the software.
  • Battery: Lithium ion battery delivering five to 19 hours of play on a four-hour charge, depending on use; power-saving sleep mode; AC adapter.
  • Languages: English, Japanese, Spanish, French, German, Italian.

5 out of 5 stars Coolest color ever   October 13, 2008
Shirley Runyon (Litchfield Park, AZ USA)
The picture does not do credit to the sweetness of this DS - everyone that sees it wants to trade with me! Well, except for the co-worker with the limited edition Zelda one, but even he admits that mine is almost as cool. I've also been asked if I had it custom made for me - a lot of stores don't seem to carry the Crimson/Black, so order it here on Amazon and be the envy of everyone you meet!


5 out of 5 stars nintendo ds lite great for 6 year old   October 12, 2008
D. Sac
I bought this for my daughter's 6th birthday- she loves it. It is easy to use, comes with a charger and the stylus (in a great little nook within the unit so she does not have to keep track of it.) We bought the protective filters as well, which I think was a good idea as she taps a bit hard and fast sometimes. I also bought her a couple of games to go with it. She totally loves the Petz Dogz Fashion (only needed a little help with words the first time she played with it- spends hours on it without any help now.) The Imagine Babies also needed only a little help to start, but, after the first day, only plays with that for a bit here and there.

I purchased 2 DS Lite's for a gift to my twin grandsons so its a bit hard to give a review. I have another grandchild and he got a DS Lite for his birthday and now all three kids fight over the one, so my review would be that my grandchildren love the DS Lite and who's review would be more important than that. Now each child will have his own DS Lite.

I've never had a hand held video game. I've never been too big on computer games either, but since I first heard about Brain Age type games for the Nintendo DS I have wanted one. I thought it was too expensive on my low fixed income so I just wouldn't buy it.

Then I kept reading about how as we age it is so important to challenge our brains. I have an illness that causes me cognative problems to begin with. So at 52 yrs old I finally decided to just do it. When I saw that $[...] would go to Breast Cancer Research I knew I had to get this color. It is really pretty. I like pink but the pink ones seemed more for little girls, this is just right.

I am very surprised and happy at the quality of the unit. The screen is so easy to see and very bright. I got two games to start with. Brain Challenge and Flash Focus. I was shocked at what my scores were. Yikes I should have got it a lot sooner. Both games are a challenge for me. I wish the coaches actually talked instead of the music in the background but other than that I think these two are a great start.

I am glad I went ahead and got it even though I had considered it a luxury now I consider it physical therapy and a medical need.

I didn't want some big unit to sit in my living room taking up space, I hate clutter. This is nice and small and I can take it with me, especially to doctor's apts, when I have to wait long periods of time.

If you have been holding off go ahead. I don't think you will be sorry. I heard a new one is coming out in Jan or so but I didn't need all the new extra features, or cost.
I priced the units locally and on line and they all sell for $[...] or more. Even the auction sites end up that much or more with the shipping. Here you have no tax and no shipping. You also have great customer service if something should be wrong.

I hope I start getting younger eyes and brain soon..I'm OLD now.

The product was never received! I ordered this for a birthday gift and it never came in. The order was cancelled and I am due a refund.
