Nintendo DS Lite Polar White

Awesome unit, brings back memories! Love it.

Came very clean, a little yellowing but that’s to be expected. Haven’t tested it with any games yet but runs smooth so far!

I purchased this for my son at the time. He's grown now abd he still has it (sentimental value) he loved this Nintendo DS when he was a child. It is well made.

Purchased this for myself some time again and I'd have to say It's the best hand held I've ever owned. I've had all of the portables game consoles from nintendo and been disappointed with all of them,but I love this one so far. Not perfect in my opinion,but a great buy.Here is what I feel the pros and cons are. The Dual Screens. Love these things so far. I've been playing contra 4 a lot and love how game play is spread across both screens for a larger view. The screen are both bright and easy to see on. The Nintendo Wi-Fi. I haven't used this much yet,but it's cool not to have to use cables like the older gameboy systems. Touch Screen Technology. So far I've only used it with metroid prime,but it's a nice addition for hand held and something that's been a long time in coming. Microphone Port. Nice feature to have but I'll admit that I haven't messed around with this one yet. Rich Stereo Sound. This was one of my main gripes with the gameboy advance. The sound on the ds sounds great so far. I have to turn it down at work a lot of times so I don't get caught playing it. It's capable of cranking out some very good music. Backward Compatibility. I have a lot of gameboy advance games so this was a must. I can still play my older games and even choose which screen I want to play them on. Battery life is very good. I have to charge mines about every 4 or 5 days and I use mines a lot. Perfect for taking on trips. Fits in your pocket easily. I stick mines in my jacket pocket at work and my supervisor never notices it which is cool. Huge amount of games to choose form. I've had no problem so far finding games I like which was a problem for me on the gba. So far I have 4 and will be buying more soon. Cons You can't play gameboy or gameboy color games on it. You also can't change the button setting on gba games. Also you can only play those games in single player mode. Even though I enjoy the touch screen it seems some games would be easier to play with a standard control method rather than using the stylus,microphone or touch screens to play them. I've talked to many who don't like game play to be spread over both screens which is confusing for some. Some games don't give you the option to decide to use theses features or play the standard way. I'd love some rubber grips on the side of the thing for long gaming session. I really wish they had some method were you could lock the top screen in place. at times when I'm playing games it falls down on the lower screen and I have to adjust it again. Makes it a bit of a problem when traveling on a bus or car at times. I never really had this problem with gbc or the gba. the hinges crack to easy from regular use. Mines already has a small crack in it. All said though I'm really enjoying this thing and recommend it to any body looking for a great portable console. Not perfect,but nintedno is getting there and I can't wait to see what's next.

I brought this as an early Christmas gift for my mother. She truly loves the DS lite. It works with no issues and the color is great.

The Nintendo DS. What more could one say? I'm going to try and rate this as objectively as possible. First off, this is by no means an adult gaming device. Anyone who is upset because it does not have TV out HD capabilities is playing with the wrong toy. You have to look at this product as it were geared towards children and the younger crowd. Many adults who purchase the DS feel that they have been ripped off. Well that's just the thing. Like I said, one has to see this as a youth oriented device. Anyways, now that we've cleared that up let talk about the DS itself. Graphics Game play Price Feature set. Graphics: Not great and it definitely would not be able to compete with the PSP, but If I remember correctly Edge magazine's top 100 games off all time features more games from the 2D era than anything else. Actually, out of the top ten 4 were 2 dimensional and the number 3 and 1 spot went to Mario 64 and Ocarina of time. Both these games were some of the first in the 3D world. So looking at it from that perspective, I'd say that graphics are outweighed by game play presentation and storyline. Plus new Super Mario bros is just plain goodness in a cartridge. Gameplay: Lets talk about Mario 64... The original Mario 64 relied heavily on the N64's analog joystick, so Mario 64 DS gives you a few different control options that attempt to emulate the control in different ways. By default, the game is configured to let you play without using the system's touch screen. The D pad is used for movement, and the buttons are used for jumping, ducking, attacking, and running. While you can also use the touch screen for running, the other two control modes are somewhat better suited for use with the touch screen, letting you shuffle the buttons around a bit to give you more control over your character. I think the methods incorporated for movement in this game are superb and could not have been mapped much better. This seems to go for all games. Most games that require the use of the touchpad and stylist are focus more on tactical elements rather than speed, which results in a more enjoyable game experience if you're not too quick with the stick. One issue I did encounter was after the touch screen got a bit scratched up it was not as sensitive. Plus those little stylists are so easy to loose. Price: Can't beat it. Can be found for under 100 dollars if you shop around. You're not going to find a cheaper way to entertain yourself on the go. The games are not too expensive either. Although, 30 bucks is pretty steep for anyone under 12. Feature set: I'd say for something as simple as a "Gameboy" it has a lot to offer. It has Wifi which can be a lot of fun with friends. Try playing Mario kart with 7 other people on their DS's and you'll know what I mean. Also the chat feature is neat if you have friends that have DS's as well. And a big bonus is the backwards compatibility with GBA games. There is a little cartridge spot to put old games in. Some of my favorite Mario games are still playable on the go cause of this. Other than that there are not a lot of features. But I wouldn't expect it to. Like I said before, If you're looking for a portable media center this is not it. The DS is a fun handheld (strictly related to gaming) that can keep you entertained for hours on end.

The Nintendo DS Lite in Polar White is a great little system that still holds up well. Its compact design makes it easy to carry around, and it feels comfortable in your hands whether you’re playing for a few minutes or a long session. The lightweight build and smooth buttons make gameplay feel simple and intuitive, even for people who aren’t big gamers. One of the best things about the DS Lite is how easy it is to pick up and play. The dual screens and touchscreen controls are responsive, and the system boots up quickly, which is perfect for on-the-go gaming. The Polar White color gives it a clean, classic look that doesn’t feel dated. Overall, this is a solid handheld console that delivers fun without being complicated. It’s great for casual players, collectors, or anyone wanting a portable system that’s reliable, compact, and easy to enjoy anytime.

Have some trouble with the game cards staying in

I cannot believe I am holding my childhood in my hands... I got my very first DS at 7 years old in 2006. I got mine red. It stopped working properly, so my parents had to return it and get me another one. I got silver since there were no more red. I loved it, but red was the one I wanted. I was still very appreciative. It was my go-to when I was depressed or bored. I'm 24, almost 25 now. I finally got the red Nintendo DS Lite I've always wanted. It's GORGEOUS, very shiny, clean, works amazing, ZERO scratches and feels brand new by the touch. It said it had a very slight scratch, but I checked it and there's none. I also didn't even need to charge it. I received it almost fully charged and it still has that nostalgic little opening sound. I'm literally in tears. Best gift I've made myself in such a long time. I recommend if you wanna relive your childhood. 10 stars.

Buenas compra

The ds works really well it still had a bit of dirt on it when a got it at place like the inside of the stylus and a bit under the screen nothing some rubbing alchool and à coton swab can’t fix in 2 second the rest was incredibly clean I was shocked at how well everything else was clean no scratch no nothin mint condition It reads the game cards well the battery is still doing good (it last longer then the iPod I’m using to write this review hahaha) both cartridge slots were really clean TLDR : was great 10/10

Llegó antes de la fecha, envío rápido y eficiente. Bien empaquetada, en una caja pequeña, la DS Lite envuelta en papel protector y junto a ella el cable USB que hace de cargador. El producto viene según lo descrito, en muy buen estado, con lápiz tactil incorporado y con el cartucho GBA de plástico metido para evitar polvo. La carcasa Crimson está nueva, así que sin arañazos ni rayaduras. La he probado un poco, todo bien, pantallas limpias, la pantalla táctil funciona perfectamente, reconoce trazos, sonido correcto. (El sonido de la DS original, no LITE, era más claro.) Desconozco si la batería está nueva. El color es precioso (me gusta el color rojo, así que el diseño Crimson le da un toque granate excelente). Recomiendo compra o regalo para disfrutar de aquellos juegos de DS clásicos o para coleccionar. Y también recomiendo vendedor, por el cuidado del envío y cumplir con lo prometido del producto.

Qualité du produit Top rien à redire , même l’impression qu’elle est neuve , fonctionne parfaitement , pas le chargeur d’origine mais celui fourni convient très bien , très content de cet achat et du sérieux du vendeur , petit mot qui fais plaisir avec un bonbon en cadeau , arrivée avant date prévue , JE RECOMMANDE FORTEMENT
