The Nintendo DS Lite seems to be on our screens quite a bit lately with ad after ad and while it is raining here in Wales, UK, it is actually summer. And in the summer, people are more willing to go out with their Nintendo DS Lite. But is it for everyone? What are its pros and cons?

If you own a DS Lite, you probably know all its features and specs and what you think is good and bad, but for others who are thinking of buying one, you will want to know the pros and cons beforehand.

The unique design of the DS Lite is very attractive to the general public and is a good start along with its two displays, one of which is a touch screen. The DS uses cartridges with up to 1GB of storage capacity, allowing plenty of storage for great games. The battery power is excellent and will last up to ten hours. The price of the DS Lite at the time of writing is around £ 90- £ 99 and most people agree that it’s not a bad price.

Now for the cons. Some people may find the PSP console better in design than the DS Lite, but that’s an opinion, of course. The cartridges used in DS Lite are more expensive than the discs used elsewhere and do not have the advantage of quality graphics.

Although the graphics aren’t of the best quality and the cartridges are a bit pricey, the DS Lite itself is inexpensive with excellent battery power and great games.

Most gamers prefer the Nintendo DS Lite to the PSP console because, as you can see, the advantages of the DS Lite certainly outweigh its disadvantages.
