Genre: Hardware
Company: Nintendo
Version: Japan
The Nintendo DSi received mixed to relatively positive reviews soon after its launch, with many websites and reviewers having different views if its worth purchasing over the DS Lite.

CNET.com rated it 3.5/5, saying that "While not all previous DS owners should upgrade, the DSi is an ambitious and solidly designed portable gaming system."^[77] BusinessWeek rated it 4.5/5, saying that the DSi is "well worth the money," and "Despite some drawbacks, the new handheld game console incorporates significant improvements over its predecessor and is a lot of fun."^[78] IGN noted that they "do miss backwards compatibility via the GBA slot" and the removal of the GBA slot as a "reasonable tradeoff" for downloadable content and accessibility to an SD card."^[79]

Defective by Design has argued that the DSi provides few significant new features, and is primarily a vehicle for DRM.^[80]

New Arrival Update - Slipon DSi Peanuts (Pink, Blue, Gray, Black, Crocodile)

I think we have too many DSi cases, a literal bombardment of Hori cases, 3rd party china cases, and finally, Takaratomy cases. You can't fit any games inside in nicely cutout slots, but you can certainly squeeze the DSi in with styluses on the side. The faces for each slip on come in two faces, one for the front, and one for the back. Compatible for DSi only, we wouldn't suggest stuffing a DS lite in there.
