    Out of the 3....which Nintendo hand held seems to prevail over the others in your own interest?

    Such interests include price, features, what games are playable, what is the size and so on.

    I was curious as to what people think now since the 3DS has gotten many negative comments on the internet.

    If the 3Ds had better battery life it'd win hands down but I could see the DSi being the better choice if you don't care about 3D... although I wouldn't recommend it as when a new product comes out the company has no interest in keeping the old around to compete with it, DS will slowly and quietly be killed off, I'd guess it probably has another 6 months to a year of good game development before new game release start to dry up.

    That, and there's a flood of 3DS games to come over the next year or so. The old games will be slowly phased out like what happened to the GBA--I heard someplace that GameStop is going to stop selling GBA stuff at some point soon.

    I still like my DS Lite. Great battery life, no stupid camera that doesn't even have a flash.. plus the crimson red and black colors are way sexier than any other portable gaming system ever created. I don't like it when they make stuff like the DSi and focus on other dumb features that have nothing to do with gaming. I'm pretty sure everyone already has a camera or mp3 player, don't need a crappy watered down one to go with my portable games lol.

    The DS Lite for me. You could play older games on it in the back.

    probably a dumb question.

    But are DS games the same as DSi games the same as 3DS? Like can they be universal?

    DS plays DS games, DSi plays DS and DSi games, 3DS plays DS, DSi and 3DS games.

    I like my DS lite the most since I can play GBA and older on it
    however I use a DSi for most DS games since my DS lite is almost ready to be put in its grave ;.; (and sadly, I still have my GBA and is in way better condition lol)

    overall vote: DS, original in the end is better in my opinion
