Lost your DS charger?

[Eruption]

Did you Know that you can you use your GBA charger to chrage your DS and vice versa?

That only works if you have the old DS.

Once you lose the charger for your DS Lite........better start asking your parents to bring you to game stop.

I see.

I dont have a Lite so thats why I posted this.

Okay so it only works on old DS.

Yea im using the charger for the older DS.

I think the old charger's end was to big for the thinner ds so they had to make a new charger smaller for it.

On a side note i hate the new ds lite so to small i prefer the bigger older one, i use the big stylis also from reserving the game its alot easier on my hand then using the smaller thinner ds lite, cuss its anoyying when the advance games stick out on the ds lite. I always have my Pinky finger resting in that area and on the lite its uncomfortable

lol....the DS lite can't take a drop either.....

I probably droped my DS standing up (keep in mind I'm 6'3) countless times and it has yet to freeze.

So old tech kicks new tech's butt.

Unlike with GBA, SP rocked.

I do like the brighter screen's on the ds lite, but other then that its to small for me lol. Altho the brighter screen like on the SP makes the color's seem dull. The dimmer older DS the color's seem better

Nout wrong with the lite, and when I'm out playing GBA games I personally use my SP, more comfy to play it that way.

Last week when we were going to be in the car for hours on end we brought the GBA SP car charger to use on my sister's DS. In case she was going to be playing it for a lot of the trip or if my Lite ran out so I could use hers. >D

Well, I'm not gonna state what you all have said,
But I will say that I prefer the DS lite for... unknown reasons... but anyway, It shouldn't have to take a drop (Although it can) I mean, just in case it falls I have brought a DS lite case for Christmas (24 more days to go XD) so if it is in that it can defiantly take drops... lets have a lecture hmm?

Both DS and DS lite have there advantages...

DS, the DS can take bigger drops and is easier to hold, not to mention the fact that the GBA charger also works for it, but a disadvantage is that the screen is darker, and the DS is bigger e.g not so travel compatible.

DS lite, it is slimmer, e.g more travel compatible, brighter screen, which has three different light choices (DS lite brightness, DS brightness, no light) also it has some thing to put in the GBA slot so it doesn't get dusty. Disadvantages, it can't take as many drops and it is smaller so those whom have big hands will have trouble using it.

As you can see both have advantages and disadvantages, it's all up to how you prefer playing the games :)

Nintendo has always made sturdy products :3

I already knew that you could charge it with the GBA, but meh...

My DS Lite has taken a few drops/room wide tosses (don't ask). Though it did give me a scare today when the touch screen wasn't working randomly, it turned out to just be the screen protector lifting up due to so many scratches on it or something. Replaced it and it works fine now.

And I just got a DS Lite kit with my DS Lite, so I have a car charger for it and extra styluses (I lost one of my big DS styluses, yet to lose a small one, go figure). The only problem with the Lite being smaller is how cramped my unused fingers get after hours of playing Mario Kart: DS.

I may have to send my Lite in for repairs though, it doesn't seem to be holding a charge as well as it used to, although that could be my lack of time sense when gaming. ...I did just notice it was 4 AM here, darn it, good bye sleeping schedule...

My Ds was bought in Japan so I got a Japanese charger. Luckily, I had an SP charger which I could use. ^_^

Meh i use to have an Old style DS and i loved it. then i got a light and i love it.

I only got a light cos the top screen came off my DS.

It broke from like 30 drops.

But i had about 4 chargers for ds and Sp so when it broke i had no use for them
