Nintendo DSi Handheld Console (Red)

Like new, works well so far. My last dsi lasted 25 years . This one won’t have to go so far as I would be 111 then.n

Our granddaughter is a very pretty and dainty girl who had quietly eyed her 3 brothers Nintendo DSi's without hardly ever being allowed to get her hands on them - you know what young boys are like when it comes to the noble art of sharing with their little sister! So when she got a console for her 8th birthday she was delighted and I am not quite certain what games she has but her both assures us they are much more lady-like than her siblings 'biff-bang-wallop' variety of gratuitous violence and the like.We got her console in pink, as it is her favourite colour and to ensure the machine is not commandeered by her brothers when they can't find theirs, as boys would not be seen dead with a girly pink one! The choice of present and colour have been a great success and something she has had and will I am certain continue to get a lot of pleasure from.Much has been said in the reviews here extolling the technical virtues by those far more capable of doing so than myself but from our perspective we are delighted with the purchase and with its quality and entertainment value.

It's work good and keeps me entertained

Still going strong well pleased

It isn’t matching the description and missing the charger, box and it has different serial number

I got a DSi a few days ago and cannot honestly see why people have complained at all. I bought a DSL to replace my DS and the DSi to replace it. having had all three releases, I can honestly say the vastly improved menu interface is by far worth the upgrade alone. And come on people, show a bit of initiative here. If you want to play GBA game then get yourself onto Ebay and get a GBA or better still an R4/M3. Afterall, it isn't illegal to posess copies of games you already own. Sure the camera sucks, but when you bought your phone did you think "This'll be good for making calls" or "Gee, I sure do like the camera quality". If you want a camera that takes ridiculously big photographs you can get them for £50 nowadays.The only true downside I can see in this is that I can no longer play guitar hero on it. But then again, compared to the fullsized version it's not all that great. But that's a different review :)All in all I think it was worth it, being about the same price as I bought my DSL and having solved one of the key issues I had with the DS and the DSL. Intergrating the browser was also another smart move along with SD functionality.

For anyone interested in how long this model of Nintendo lasts, look no further!I've had this for four years now and as long as it sees the case every time it's not being used it lasts like new all the way along. It's more of a novelty of course now as more advanced (though not better in my opinion) models have come out since. But for a bit of an old style game when I have a spare hour it really can't be beaten.The spare stylus came in handy just last year when I finally lost the original, I was glad it served a purpose, and the buttons hold up very nicely. The cartridge slot at the back has not lost any of its connection and so all my original games I bought with it still work perfectly. The matte black finish has many scratches but this is to be expected, overall I am impressed that the integrity of the hard shall is still strong. As well as the cartridge slot the other ports also retain connection like new.So although it's a dinosaur in the scheme of things, I'm still as happy with it as I was the day I nought it, even if it only sees use once every few months now.

I understand these are used and refurbished dsi but for £65 I would have at least expected it to have been cleaned, rim of dirt all round the screens that can be removed easily if you try, scratches on the corner and marked where there have been sticker stuck to it. Not pleased. Stated on the listing it was very good condition I'm afraid I don't agree.
