Dsi Discussion

Sure, I've been hearing it's a groovy system with a lot of very modern features. The camera addition, plus DSiWare. Please discuss the DSi here.

It does lack a GBA port, but it also can have games removed without it freezing up.

Oh yes, I totally forgot that.

The lack of the GBA port makes some people mad because they can't transfer pokemon from their emerald/sapphire version games to their diamond/pearl version games,

But the DSi can use internet Via wi-fi,but we need an SD card to download the browser or something like that...

When I want to play/use a GBA game, I go and use my DS Lite. I don't really use the DSi Internet much since it is pretty slow. I like the camera though!<3

No, you just need an available internet connection host. ICHS's (Interactive Computer Hot spot) can provide the free internet needed.

Which is Wi-Fi.


I seem to recall Band Hero coming out soon, and that the drums controller does not fit the DSi, BUT you can still play with the buttons.


Discuss now. lol

Okay, a Band Hero. They've just copied Guitar Hero and Rock Band

Guitar Hero company = band Hero company

d/w I'll explain.


Guitar hero has a reputation of being for hardcore fans, so they brought in Band hero which focuses more on being a band, and they have added some different kinds of music to the mix. BUT it uses all the same controllers. So basically what they have done is used a hardcore gaming mechanism in a new game to create a common game that lots of people will play, not just the hardcore metal fans.


Kapische?

You don't need a sd card al you have to do is download the dsi ware for Internet and use it

Honestly, I've seen the DSi, and I'm not overly impressed. I mean, I don't have a use for its features, and I have a Lite. Meh, that's just me, though *shrugs*

So, it's now an old handheld Nintendo game.

Is it still worth getting due to its features? There's a special offer going around in my location and it's still cheap.

The 3DS is now $170. I'd recommend saving up for that since there is plenty to expect from the new handheld.
