The Nintendo DS proclaims that touching is good for gaming, and with the fashionable DS Lite now on the scene, we’re inclined to agree. The DS Lite has improved in every way over the original DS model. The screens are brighter, the case is more durable, and power consumption is more efficient. A full three hour charge will have you in portable gaming heaven for up to 19 hours of continuous operation! A whole roster of colors and styles complement the sleek new accents of the DS Lite meaning you can play better and look better than ever before. Less

Gamers can choose plays in sports games or plan offensive moves in RPG games without their challengers clueing in. You can also save special characters, moves or teams to the VMS, and swap info with your fellow Dreamcast owners by connecting your VMS card to theirs. Less
