Nintendo DSi: The Five Coolest Features

4. Design!
Pictures don't do the DSi justice. While it's not the marked improvement of the DS Lite over the original bulky model, the DSi is sleek, the buttons have been moved around for better layout and ergonomics, and best of all, the portable has a matte finish that would make the PSP green with envy. Inside the system, the UI has been made over to look more like the Wii. You can drag and drop games and tools like you would on the Wii or iPhone. It's a definite improvement.
5. Storage!
With an SD storage slot, the DS's biggest weakness has been remedied. You can store music, movies and games, and, hopefully, can download firmware updates so that the DSi can keep up with the times. With all the improvements the DSi offers over the original, you might be tempted to, too.

Looks like fun, but I won't be getting one until there's either a big price drop, or my current DS Lite breaks (which I doubt will be any time soon).

Cool update. I won't buy a new ds for these features because I'm too cheap for that. What's the price?

I am actually going to get another DS Lite before this comes out, as a backup to my current one in case it breaks. Unless Nintendo puts out a another New Super Mario Bros. type game or a new Zelda game that can only be played on the DSi, I'll be passing on this. I like my GBA slot.

If the GameBoy/GBA hardware's toughness was any indication, the DS will probably never break.

Lol when this comes out I might as well sell my PSP. All it is, is an MP3 player to me.
