Hopdiddy said: the original ds is louder than the ds lite and the screen is bigger so thats why you should have just the original ds... oh!!! and on the original ds, the battery lasts longer


...biggerr screen?...No
...battery lasts longer?...surely it depends on screen brightness...

DS Lite is...Lighter, Smaller, brighter (if desired), longer stylus, sexier, and accessories are only made for it.

The Lite stylus is also longer, the unit itself is lighter and it's more pocket-friendly than a DS Fat.

If you can get a Lite, then do not buy this one. The screen is 3X brighter on the lite and the stylus is much more accessable.
