In the end it's an even matchup for numerous reasons.
DS or DSi. which is better?

In the end there is no better one for everyone. The better one is the one your prefer.

I don't prefer either, they both balance each other perfectly.
The DS is cheaper, has GBA compatibility and the DSi has all those excess bells and whistles but no GBA compatibility, which I find huge. o3o
I couldn't decide. o3o

So we also mourn the loss of the GBA slot of the DS, in particular, due to the amount of Pokemon games I have on the GBA, I understand the reason for Nintendo to do what's waiting for the future not backward.

I went with the DS Lite so I could play GBA games (and be able to get a Hoenn based game so I can play all gens ... still have my game boy color with blue in it and Heartgold/SoulSilver for 2nd Gen). I have a Droid phone so it handles all my mobile internet needs (I'm guessing better than the DSi does), and has a mobile camera.
So DSi is great IMHO if you don't have a smart phone... if you have a smart phone then I would go for the DS since A: more gaming options, and B: cheaper.

DSi has a download store, channels, TWO cameras, Flipnote Studio, and with all of the new Pokémon games, its better
The DS lite was better until HGSS were released, now its DSi

3DS, mainly because of it's new gfx engine and able to play ported PS3/Xbox 360 games very well. Look at Street Fighter IV, well a bit sharp it's practically a perfect conversion.
Besides, most DS games released now actually require you to have the camera which the DS/DSL don't.
You might as well just upgrade to the 3DS mainly because most if not all games are gonna jump right in mainly because of it's gfx capabilities. It's certainly going to crush the hand held competition(aka sony) Sony needs to bring out the PSP 2, or release a refresh with a gfx engine that can match or beat the 3ds.
