- low quality camera
purchased 21 Mar 2009
+ Cameras are good. The screen size is quite noticeably larger when compared to the DS Lite.
-
he material used as the DSi's cover isnt great as it is easily scratched so would recommend getting a hard case, which came within the bundle that I bought.
Also for now the colours are only black or white so it would be good to see mroe colours come out like the DS Lite.
