    Anyone got this? As a fan of the old DS, how does it compare?

    Have a thought couple of months ago for one,, a great handheld always nintendo had. Its just after psvita released, I thought about getting this instead. the price not that much different(for wifi ver.), not like ds and psp.
    And surely I have seen enough of dog, cat and horse games not to bother with another in 3D.

    My daughter has one, she loves it but can only play it for a certain amount of time, looking at the 3D gives her killer headaches.

    I bought one, played it with £D on for half a day, decided it was better with teh 3D turned off, has a larger screen than other DS's and a joy stick so was still worth it for me....however I sold my Aqua 3DS and Rayman 3D for £90 the other day to buy a Canon lens for my DSLR.

    Someone a know is selling a Nintendo 3ds for £30. Comes way the charger a Mario game.

    Is this a good price for one of these? Is it the latest Nintendo ds out?

    Never played it myself but was going to buy it for my 6yr old daughter. Assuming there loads of good kids games for her to play.

    I've got a 3DS and it's great, loads of different games available and some are classics like mario and zelda. Love a wee bit of pokemon aswell I have to admit :52:

    It can play older ds games as well so getting good games for it can be cheap since you go for the oldies.

    You can get a R4 card with all the old titles (ds/dsi games) at the barras for a score or something like that

    Giving a 6 year old anything with a hinge is risky. But for £30 it's a bargain, though it may not last the year.

    The ones I've got just have a pack of ds/dsi games on them but compatible for the 3ds,no 3ds games on them at all.
