I have two DS lites and i rather have them than the DSi because i still play GBA games and i would be lost without the gameboy port. UNFORTUNATELY. the pink one i had for years was in perfect condidtion until my niece dropped it and one of the hinges to the top screen broke so now i have to play while holding the top screen or else it will snap down on itself. gonk . my other white one was sold to me by a friend who found it on the ground, and the top screen blows out frequently. Ah...i can't find the Lite for cheap anywhere anymore. is the DSi THAT exciting?
