What's the difference between a Nintendo DS lite and a Nintendo DS (normal)?

Answer 1

the difference between the DS and the DS Lite.

the DS uses the same charger as the GBA. the DSL has a different connector. both of them play the same exact games - gameboy advance games. nothing older (no gameboy color, no gameboy)

the DS, when folded, is bigger and heavier than the DSL. it's easier to put a DSL in your pocket. but i don't put systems in my pocket... what if something happened?

the DS stylus is smaller, and the DSL's larger stylus is easier to hold

the DSL has the start/select buttons in a much better place, where as the DS had them in places that anyone who's played nintendo systems thinks is weird. the power button is in a better place too

the DSL has a mic in the center, the DS has the mic on the bottom left

the screen for the DSL can be made a little brighter than the DS. it also has like four brightness settings.

the DS comes in various colors per region - [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ds_lite#Colors ]

the outside casing of the DS is nice and solid. the outside casing for the DSL feels like oily plastic

Answer 2

The DS Lite is smaller,costs more,has differant colors,and it sells better.

Answer 3

The buttons have moved a bit and its lighter and slimmer than the orginal - they also removed the promlems in the orginal too - like the switch (can be easily pressed by accident while playing)
