NintendoDS/DS lite?

Question

Hi!!Hope this doesn't sound too much of a dumb question,but i wanted to get my daughter a DS Lite for Christmas...I have looked on the Argos website this morning,and some of the games say DS,and some say DS Lite...My question is-will the Nintendo DS games play on a NintendoDS Lite?Idon't want to buy the wrong thing!!Thanks for your help:-)xxx

Thanks for all your answers,they were all very helpful.I shall now go forth and splash some cash!!:-)One more thing-which muppet has gone round giving thumbs down to every single person that's answered me?...

Answer 1

You can play the games on both - Nintendo Lite is just an upgrade from the original DS so is slightly better (better backlight and smaller). You can also play Gameboy Advance games on the DS and they are a lot cheaper as well.

Answer 2

The Nintendo DS and DS Lite games are compatible with both of the handheld consoles. The only difference would be that the DS Lite is slightly smaller hence, Lite and the screen for the DS Lite is slightly brighter. Other than that, its pretty much the same thing.

Hope that was useful to you.

Answer 3

The systems are both the same thing, the DS Lite is just a smaller more compact version then the DS. They both do the same thing and play the same games

I also believe that Nintendo doesn't manufacture the Original DS anymore and they only make the Lite.

Answer 4

DS lite is just a slimer version of the original. the DS lite will play original DS games and new ones and even GBA games

Answer 5

from what i have seen, the only difference in the DS's are the size, therefore the games shouldnt be affected, my mum, stepdad and sister all have DS lites and have not had any problems buying games for it....good luck

Answer 6

Nintendo DS lite ma'am... thank you for your convenience ma'am

Answer 7

Both exactly the same just ones smaller and the lite is much better colour and quality of gaming ....go for lite!

Answer 8

Candles are so sensuous and relaxing. you won't be able to get an analogous warm temperature, heady fragrance or the play from the flickering flame with a dim mild. yet, if issues will be getting slightly out of hand, or you would nod off, then a dim mild is safer.

Answer 9

nope u can play both games on both, ds lites are great i have one, my sims is best game for younger people and the dog things, argos has a good deal on atm, £99 for a game and a accersorie pack, but check the game website, they usual have good deals,

Answer 10

Of course they are both the same machine just like the PS2 and PS2 slimline they both use the same software buy with confidence
