I'm perfectly fine with my DS lite, so I doubt I'll be upgrading to the DSi anytime soon. I mean yeah, it looks cool as hell, and has a ton of new features, but I...don't really see the point in spending $250 on a new DS when it plays the same games as before. Plus, I already have a camera and a laptop, so some of the newer features are kinda useless to me. It's definitely more convenient, but not really one of my top priorities right now. Oh, and what the hell, no gba slot? >O

In short, I would if I didn't already have a DS lite, but I just wanted something that could play DS games. I don't need all this other crap with it D:

I actually had that happen to me once since last year when I got my 360. I shipped it in to get fixed (Microsoft covers shipping/packaging charges), and they sent me a replacement unit. Since then, I haven't had any problems with my 360 ._.

Wow, I didn't know it can be fixed. >.<

A person at school has had his 360 break three times in two years. He is going to sell his 360 if it breaks again and will get a PS3 instead. It seems like the 360 isn't that reliable.

Hmm...I'm planning to get a DSi if I have to money to do so ($180! O_o) But my only problem with it is the missing GBA Slot. It's a definite buy if it only has that...but now, I'm holding back due to that. D=
Well I chose GBA SP over the DS back in 2006 because I like the backward compatibility to the GBC Games and as it turns out it was the last new console that can play the Color and Metal Pokemon Games XD

Aurafire January 3rd, 2009 8:46 PM

I probably won't invest in a DSi....My regular DS is working fine and I really don't play it that much too get another one. Plus, the DSi doesn't play GBA games, which sucks =/

Angela January 3rd, 2009 8:51 PM

I have never heard of an DSI, what does she do different from the DS?

I believe it can take pictures with that one thing on it's side (Not sure on this one), that and it's inability to play GBA games.

I might buy it when I have the money, but I don't know much about it.

cieux January 3rd, 2009 8:55 PM

i think i'll get a DSi. just for the sake of my ds collection. oh, that and, better sound = happy me. i don't play gba games anymore, so yeah. :x it's also really pretty and extra thin. and my touch screen is completely screwed from abusing it. ugh. ... or maybe i'll save my mom's money for something else. idk. i'll most likely get it. :\

edit: to add onto the above post, it apparently has higher sound quality, it's thinner, the screens are slightly larger, you can download content and play music and stuff on it, there is an sd card for it for various uses, and there will be a DSi shop. kinda like the wii shop. that's what i heard, at least.

Kura January 3rd, 2009 10:43 PM

DSI? I think I'll just stick to my DS.. if I really need to take a picture, I'll use my cellphone .__.;;

Karasuma January 3rd, 2009 10:59 PM

To be honest I'm not even sure what cellphone takes the best high quality picture. I always thought it was the iPhone though. It may be the new eclipse since its expensive o.o

Kura January 3rd, 2009 11:02 PM

I have no idea what takes the best pictures.. but if you find something with like.. 5 MP or higher then it'd be perfect for photos!~

Karasuma January 3rd, 2009 11:08 PM

Then again I could just buy me an expensive camera if i want to take shots, but i love the fact that cellphone's are getting more advanced as time passes...a 5 MP phone sure sounds awesome about now.

Kura January 3rd, 2009 11:19 PM

I heard that the iPhone wasn't that great ._. I dunno~
For now I'm sticking with my POS cellphone. I don't really care for gadgets and things..

Karasuma January 3rd, 2009 11:26 PM

I have a T-mobile samsung thats been with me for two years...its suffered a lot of dropping on cement floors though...
Not the fanciest phone but who cares as long as it can call/text people.

Kura January 3rd, 2009 11:30 PM

I have a samsung, too.. but I hate the interface.. the battery also runs out waayy too fast for my liking.. but I don't use it much so I just end up putting up with it .__.

Guillermo January 4th, 2009 12:16 AM

Motorola fails. The battery dies after a call and it doesn't stop beeping if I get a message and it wakes me up. :<

Kura January 4th, 2009 12:35 AM

:/ Yeah my mom and brother have Motorola and it seems to always have battery problems..
At least it's stylish and the reception is really good~

Guillermo January 4th, 2009 12:38 AM

I'll be getting a Nokia or something like that soon. :]

Alakazam17 January 4th, 2009 5:53 AM

I doubt that I'll ever get a DSi. If anything, I'll just get a new DS Lite if my current one ever fails. See, a little chunk of it came off and now the top is all floppy and the screen shines a brilliant shade of purple every once in awhile, heh. If that ever happens permanently, I'll be forced to get a new one, heh. But thanks to the DSi, that'll probably mean that the DS Lite will be much cheaper if I ever have to get another. ^_^

Sushi. January 4th, 2009 6:55 AM

I would still rather buy a DS then a DSi. Because I still love a couple of GBA games. >.<

I'm most likely never planned to get a cellphone for myself, because I don't really have much friends in life. And you have to pay the bills too. >.<

Volkner's Apprentice January 4th, 2009 8:33 AM

I've got Verizon. it works just fine, haha. I have the RaZor (or whatever it's called), iunno it's the black one with the full keyboard because I text like a maniac. I don't do my cell bill, the parents do since it's a family plan. XD

I don't want a DSi, not until they end up somehow forcing us to buy it by not allowing some games to be played on the Lite. However, I don't see that happening, giving the fact that no advanced game features were added.

I'm psyched for Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon to be released in February. Not to mention MARIO TENNIS: WII. Booyah.

Caelus January 4th, 2009 8:40 AM

I have a cellphone but I never bother using it. It gets on my dad's nerve but I just never use it unless I have to.

The only games I am looking forward to is Pokemon Platinum.

Aurafire January 4th, 2009 8:45 AM

Aaahhh I need a new cell phone so badly. I've had my current one for a year and a half it. It's still a decent phone, but not nearly as pretty as some of the new ones they have out now. (That new blackberry looks amazing =P)

Soul Eater January 4th, 2009 8:46 AM

I have T-mobile. In fact, my whole family does. Well, me, my mom and my aunt that is. My aunt lives in Maine though but my mom is ALWAYS in touch with her, since they are sisters.

I have a cellphone but I only use it for emergencies. That usually isn't very often. XD

I want Pokemon Ranger. :< I didnt get it for christmas like i wanted and I have played any of the Ranger games. There is alot of games I want. XD I wouldnt mind getting more Phoenix Wright games. I already beat the other two that I have. They are so much fun because I have a huge thing for mystery/detective games like Nancy Drew. XD

Razer302 January 4th, 2009 8:46 AM

I have had my phone for 6 months, but it is an old model. I would love a new one but there better things I want to buy first.
