I'm playing on the DSLite. I wish I had a DSi or one of the newer ones, though. I need my Wifi again... I used to have WEP but then WPA swooped in and there go my Pokémon trades...

A nice Deep blue DSi, customised with Decals from my Crossbone Gundam modle kit, to make it go faster. Everyone knows stickers/decals make things go faster.

Uh...well I'll be playing Black or Gray Version primarily on a Nintendo 3DS once I'm able to get one... I had to skip the DS handheld, so I'll probably be joining in Generation V with the new 3DS release. It'll also help me prepare just in case Gray Version and/or RS remakes are 3DS-exclusive. I was also considering getting a DS Lite for the sole purpose of transferring Pokemon from Generation 3 via Pal Park...so if my 3DS happens to konk out (which should be highly unlikely, I hope), I'll be playing Pokemon games (Black, Platinum, and HeartGold) on a DS Lite.

(though the original DS "Phat" model is discontinued, I would prefer getting that over a DS Lite due to it being more durable, from what I've heard. But there's that pesky Power Button placement...)

I play on the original DS. I never upgraded, though perhaps I'll get a 3DS in the coming months. Not being able to connect to secured routers using WPA/WPA2 is the biggest pain in the arse.

DS lite. Because it's the only one I have! Making all these upgrades annoys me. You have to keep getting a new system! Though the upgrades are cool.

Yeah Dark Piplup, I also have a DS Lite, so that's what I'm going to play Pokemon Black on.

Playing on the original fat DS, since I don't have the cash to spend on a DSi.

Hmm, I missed the poll. For what it's worth, I'm playing on my yellow DSi XL. I also have a pale blue DS Lite that I use for trading.

I use my trusty stead, the original Nintendo DS. Sure, it's a bit battered, but it works perfectly still after all these years. I remember my first game, Nintendogs! Hahahaha. :)

I really have no desire to waste my money on something I really don't need. I am rather fond of my old DS. :)

I'm using a Nintendo DSI at the moment because I really don't want to get another one, I'm fine with the one I have at the moment.

I'm playing on my DS Lite, I'll probably switch to 3DS when I get one at some point in the future.

I'm playing Pokemon White on my DS Lite because my Pokemon Black is synced with my DSi XL and my Japanese Black is synced with my normal silver DS system.

I was originally playing my Pokemon Black on my DSLite, but then it stopped working so I had to get a new system so I bought the DSi. I'm not really all that interested in the 3DS, but I'm sure that'll change in the future.

A heads up to anyone planning on playing old DS games on the 3DS: they won't look as good as on the old DS'es.
You have two modes to play old DS games. The first is the default mode: the images will be scaled to fit the 3DS screen as closely as possible, leaving only two black bars on the top screen. The downside is that the quality will be lost.
The second mode is toggled by holding start or select when booting the game. This will boot the game with the normal pixel sizes. The screen will be much smaller than on the DS but the quality will be the same.
Their is no way to exactly play the old DS games on the 3DS like on the old DS. You'll have to use an old DS to do that.

DSi for me. I got one for myself on my birthday 2 years ago (I was working then) with Mario. I don't have lots of games . But more recently I got one for my (now) wife when she spent 8 hours of an unsaved game playing my platinum.

DSi. :D I love my DSi. I also have a DS lite, but I don't use it too much since the hinge is broken.
