KeR Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 Training come my way! Phew, what a lineup. I've got GRAW, Oblivion and Battlefield II coming up on the 360 as well, I may well have to quit my job... what the hell is your job...I need to come over to the UK and start working at your place, and then I might be able to get all the stuff you have :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroChaos Veteran Posted March 18, 2006 Veteran Share Posted March 18, 2006 The brightness has increased a lot. Makes me want to go and get a Lite when it comes out here, trying to play the DS in full sunlight on the train to college is difficult. isn't the psp pretty bright though? it hurts my eyes in the dark. do you know the numbers for comparison? i thought it would've been something else besides brightness that helps make it so visible.

crazy@5$ Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 Great pics!! Do the buttons feel nice? how is powersliding in Mario Kart? Great pics!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzla Veteran Posted March 18, 2006 Author Veteran Share Posted March 18, 2006 (edited) I've sold my PSPs, but there's plenty of comparison pics around the net. The result is always DS lite screens on max is brighter than PSP screens on max. It's not just the brightness though, it must be different screen tech because it doesn't fade in daylight. This is a shot of it on my desk this morning, just below the window. I'm not heading out to take photos cause it's freezing :p Buttons are nice, the A, B, X, Y buttons are kinda small but they haven't annoyed me yet. As for powersliding in Mario Kart, I don't know if it's because I was playing lying down with the DS above my head in mid air but I was playing for an hour or 2 yesterday and my hands killed. I'll give it a "normal" try today. Edited March 18, 2006 by Dazzla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoTrunks Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 Well in my opinion Metroid is better with the stylus anyway. As for the others, I guess Nintendo has no intentions of using the touch screen as an analog stick ever again. I'm spoiled by it already. I may just use the strap from my old DS for the lite, or at least get new ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob_loblaw Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 If you haven't seen already, here's two really good video review and [screen] comparisons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evolution Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 I've been looking at the 360* Movies for the DS Lite at http://touch-ds.jp/news/lite/360_white.html. And I was wondering what the two indentations to the left of the DS slot are for (looking backwards -on the right side, top view)? Are they to hold a thumb strap?

tmw Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 You lucky ******! :p I want one of those so, so much. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faraway. Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 I hate the fact that when you want to play a GBA game, when you put the cartridge in it sticks out almost a full 2 centimeters or so :angry: I have a lot of GBA games left to play and I hope that this doesn't bother me.

MasterC Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 I can't say I find it's appearance very appealing. :/ /me agrees :no: And, no offence Dazzla, but you?re 23?!? They should put some kind of age limit on those things?:unsure:ure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dior_addict Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 Games are for everyone of all ages to enjoy. There shouldn't be a set age on things just because society says so. In anycase, great review once again :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzla Veteran Posted March 20, 2006 Author Veteran Share Posted March 20, 2006 /me agrees :no: And, no offence Dazzla, but you?re 23?!? They should put some kind of age limit on those things?:unsure:ure: Jesus that's pathetic, the average age for someone who plays videogames is now 30. Are you that concerned about what people think about you that you'd be too scared to play games? From your post you sound like a really cool 13 year old. The nice "Winblows" under your avatar gives away your mental age as well, go play some grown up stuff and leave the kiddie games to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martyn Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 Yet again another brilliant review Dazzla! I have never been a fan of the DS, but I must admit you made it luck pretty nice. Go work for Nintendo :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm 22, and I have no shame in saying that I have a nice, crisp $100 bill that I will be using to buy Metroid Prime Hunters and Tetris DS tomorrow.

Quillz Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Dazzla, One thing I can't recall you mentioning; does the fact that the GBA carts stick out annoy you? I would assume that it doesn't, but you never know. Also, is the DS Lite a lot more comfortable too hold? The original DS was far too top heavy, IMO.

dagger Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Off Topic: I'm 21 and I love playing games in my leisure so I suggest you keep your narrow-minded comments to yourself, Seriously why do you care how old he is? "Z0MFG UR t00 YUNG T0 B33H 0N NE0W1N 0R T3H 1NT3RWAB" Putting an age limit on something in most cases is unfair and just being plain judgemental. On Topic: Well firstly, Great review Dazzla :D I love the DS-Lite and how it reallly has been refined in many areas but... I don't like the colour :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyroteknikz Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Damn. I was going to get a regular DS and Metroid Prime:Hunters(if its out then) on the weekend but now that I saw this I want to get the DS Lite. Is there anywhere on the internet where I can get it cheap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The least expensive DS Lites on the Net are around $200 US....however, you could spend $100 more and get it faster.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyroteknikz Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Damn. Ill just wait until it comes out in North America. Anyways, are there any ergonomical differences between the DS and DS Lite? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
