Features:

System:
With Nintendo DS Lite, dual screens and touch-screen technology allow you to interact with games like never before. Wireless communication allows you to experience real-time multiplayer gameplay, and the free Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service allows you to compete against players from around the globe.

Lighter. Brighter. With dual screens, a touch screen, wireless gameplay and more.

Double the fun with two screens.

Dual Screens:
Two incredibly bright LCD screens offer one of the most groundbreaking gameplay advances ever developed. Each 3-inch screen can reproduce a true 3D view, with impressive 3D renderings that can surpass images displayed on the Nintendo 64.

Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection:
Ready to take on the world? Now, with Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, you can connect wirelessly, chat and play with Nintendo DS owners across the globe. All you need to play is a Nintendo DS and a Wi-Fi-ready game. There are no subscription fees -- the service is free!

Touch Screen Technology:
The lower screen offers something never before provided by any dedicated game device: touch-screen capabilities. You no longer have to rely on just buttons to move your character or shift perspectives. Navigate menus or access inventory items simply by touching the screen with a stylus or fingertip. The possibilities are limited only by developers' imaginations. The touch screen features a tougher film cover for durability, and the included stylus is stored in the back of the unit.

Microphone Port:
A built-in microphone port means that with Nintendo DS, you only need to tell your games what to do. The Nintendo DS microphone gives you even more ways to interact with your favorite games.

Wireless Network:
With Nintendo DS Lite, you can connect with a local wireless network of up to 16 players. The wireless range can be an incredible 30 to 100 feet and for some games, multiplayer requires just one Nintendo DS game card.

Note: Nintendo DS Lite wireless communication, including PictoChat, is not private and is not monitored by Nintendo. We recommend that you never reveal any personal information or arrange to meet a stranger.

Rich Stereo Sound:
Nintendo DS Lite sound capabilities allow for greatly expanded use of voices and music, and a richer, more immersive game experience. Stereo speakers allow for virtual surround sound and a plug for headphones transmits stereo sound.

Backward Compatibility:
Nintendo DS Lite features a separate media port for Game Boy Advance cartridges, allowing you to play all your favorite Game Boy Advance games in single-player mode.

Technical Specs:

A Touch Screen means you no longer have to rely on just buttons.

5 out of 5 stars My daughter LOVES it!   January 7, 2009
J. Burgess (Clarendon, Va)
I purchased this Nintendo DS bundle for my daughter for her birthday. Her eyes lit up when she saw it and she hardly ever puts it down. (after her homework is done) The variety of games and ways to play them on this pretty unique platform definately makes it worth every penny. The bundle came with a game and a carrying case and an extra stylus. She liked the color I like the value being that it was a good $15 to $20 cheaper with Amazon than anywhere else that had the same bundle, and was even cheaper than just the game system alone and best buy or target. I'm very happy with my purchase because I believe she'll be playing with this game system for a while.


4 out of 5 stars Brain age eval   January 7, 2009
L. JOHNSON (California)
Cognitive abilities are exercised which sends oxygen into brain centers. A mental age is established based on memory and basic math speed. Vocabulary is missing in this equation and variation is limited. Since enhancing brain function is a new genre for games, it's not expected to be perfect yet. Brain Age 2 may solve the variation issue. Otherwise, a solid "B".


4 out of 5 stars Wife loves it.   January 7, 2009
Justin L. Jones
I bought this for my wife for Christmas and she loves it. Brain Age is a cool game but it takes forever to do anything cause the guy talks way to much. Other than that, great game and game system.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent product   January 7, 2009
Hao V. Nghiem (Orlando USA)
I bought this DS and game bundle for my daughter. At first she seems not interested in the game but the more she played the more fun she has.
Now she is asking for more Brain game like this one. About the game console : the screen is very clear and bright.
This package is the best holiday gift for my daughter so far and price is reasonable.

5 out of 5 stars A toy for all ages   January 7, 2009
M. Terry (Tampa, FL)
I wanted a DS only for the Brain Age game and when I saw this it was perfect: pretty color, came with the matching case, AND with Brain Age. I got it during the holidays and it was on sale, so I paid less for all three things as this buncle package. I also like getting limited edition things because it makes me feel special like I have something really rare. lol

I do recommend this game. The only thing to keep in mind, it comes with Brain Age (1) not Brain Age 2. I didn't know there were multiple ones and apparently the one I wanted is/was Brain Age 2. The first one isn't bad though and I'm satisfied with it.
