DS Lite

Really like the look of the DS Lite, Didn't think much of the original DS so i never really paid much attention to the games, but now i'm really thinking about getting one.

Now what are the DS' killing games? is it really worth getting one and what are people opinions on whether or not nintendo will change the design or bring out something new in the near future?

Can't see Nintendo changing the design and bringing out another DS. Next handheld will probably be something completely different. (portable Gamecube would be excellent!)

As for games:

Metroid Prime Hunters
New Super Mario Brothers
Animal Crossing
Super Mario 64 DS
MarioKart DS
Nintendogs
Advanced Wars: Dual Strike
Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow
Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan
Trauma Center: Under the Knife
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney
Brain Training
Viewtiful Joe: Double Trouble
Sonic Rush

Thats a list I drew up myself of games I want to purchase for the DS.

ive had mine 5 days, 8 people i know already want one!

Great little piece of kit and with all the homebrew stuff about it isnt just a handheld games machine anymore!

Having not seen one, I don't get what all the furore is about. Why is it flying off the shelves so quickly?

Agreed, you have to get one - the only question you have to ask yourself is black or white

Brain Age is really good fun, as are New Super Mario Bros, Mario Kart, Yoshi Touch & Go and Metroid.

Small sexy machine with EXCELLENT games.

FAR better than the PSP in my opinion -my PSP has been gathering dust for ages now, I am going to sell it.

Excellent bit of kit, the games are great but its slowly turning into a mini PC with web browser and personal organiser software. DS Linux etc etc

I had mine 1 day and everyone in my family got one the day after(mum,dad,sister and my other sister who lives away from home wants one!)

I admit, I thought the DS sucked then I played on one for a hour then got the bus to the shop and bought one!
