I was tricked by the deal. It was too good to be true. The problem is when the system comes with preloaded games it takes up all the limited memory, so the Intenet wouldn't load or crash all the time because it ran out of disk space. I would suggest to everyone to always buy their games separately from the game system. Also, it doesn't come with the seperate game disk or instructions, so if you delete it from your DSi its gone permanently.

We purchased the Brain Age bundle when it was on sale at Amazon. The DSi itself is a great improvement of the DS light. The cameras and photo manipulation software are just a fantastic addition to the DS. The bundle is only worth the extra cost if you have not played Brain Age games in the past. If you have, there is little more to the games.

This was purchased for our younger son to the chagrin of our older who has a Nintendo DS. The DSi has many great upgrades over the DS model. If you are making a choice between the two, I would get this one since the extra bucks are worth it.

We love how this DSi has some games already loaded onto the system. Having five games pre-loaded is a great feature since sometimes cartridges are forgotten or don't work properly. You get: Card Games, Suduko, Brain Age Arts & Letters and Brain Age Math. Only Suduko is rarely played. You also get a camera, sound, option to play via wifi with others, chat forum, Nintendo browser, and Flipnotes (to keep notes). More importantly, you get the option to set parameters for their usage with parental controls. I love this feature!

The camera and sound has proven to be the most used of these features. My son loves to take photos and distort them. This has proven to be a great way to keep him occupied during long trips. You can store several photos but not a whole bunch.

This model is a mat white and gets dirty very easily but we use a cover so it stays good as new. This color was a cheaper option so it was a bargain.

I highly recommend the DSi for hours of fun. I find myself grabbing it when I know I have a long wait ahead of me. As we have a young child, we do not use all of the functions this model provides (it would be better for older kids) but we still love it.

Purchased this as a gift item. No problems thus far and the product is getting lots of usage. The children especially like the digital camera feature and ability to add animation.

I bought these for my 11 year old twins and they love them. They had the DS Lite before, and the Dsi has many more features. The camera and photo editing software keeps the kids busy for hours. The Dsi uses an sd card to hold tons of the kids photo creations, so we can take the card out and print what they have created with photos. Great product, but be careful with the hinge system, which Nintendo has not changed much at all. The hinges can break - just be gentle.

I bought this for my wifes 50th. She loves it. Besides it's ease of use the brain games that play on here are great for keeping the mind sharp. She can't put it down. We bought a few games like WORDJUNG and besides being fun to play it does alot for keeping the the brain sharp. Would recommend this to anyone and especially to those over 50,lol.

Nintendo delivers yet again with a DS update. How many people remember the old semi-bloated DS Phat? Then we got the DS Lite, which made it sleeker, slimmer and iconic. With the DSi, we get a massive change, with an all-new interface, DSi exclusive software, a faster CPU, and a pair of cameras, in addition to an even smaller form. Sadly, it comes with the loss of one of my favorite DS features, the Slot-2, which enables GBA play and a few cool accessories. If you've got Guitar Hero On Tour, you won't be able to rock in public anymore. That's the only serious flaw I have with this system. Time to pack up the GBA titles. Emerald, I'll miss you...

Got exactly what I wanted, for a very reasonable price. Bought this for my husband and he constantly tells me how happy he is with it. A really great present for any age group.

This was purchased for my teen daughter and she loves it. Very fun to play, works with all DS games (no support for GameBoy Advance games since like the DS Lite, this model does not contain a GameBoy Advance cartridge slot). The built-in Brainage games are challenging. Adding an SD card for storage of saved games is highly recommended.

I bought this for my five year old son for Christmas and I think it is acceptable for his age. Its the only thing I have ever bought him that he hasn't lost interest in a month. It is now July and he plays with it a few times a week! The brain age game wasn't age appropriate but I have fun with it! :) There are some educational games that I like to let him play. If he is going to do it he might as well be learning!
