My husband and I have had our DS Lites for well over a year now and we still really enjoy them. I like the black model, as i think it looks most stylish and grown-up! But if i was kid, I would adore a pink one!! The graphics can be extremely high standard.

Advantages: wide range of games, suits all ages and genders, so much to do Disadvantages: so addictive!
2 years ago I received a pink Nintendo DS Lite for Christmas and have loved it ever since. The original idea of a touch screen and interactive play seemed so unbelievable when it first came out although it has wore off a bit since-with the delevopment of technology and things like Wii.
You can do so much on it-play games alone and with friends, play Gameboy games aswell, play Wi-fi games with people all over the world AND have an Instant Messaging style chat with friends within a 10m distance. There must be so much more that I haven't yet discovered!
The best thing is its an amazing games console that suits boys and girls, young and old because the range of games with the DS is so vast.
I would recommend this as a perfect gift for Xmas or birthdays...I loved it! ...
