Why I didn't buy a DSi

*GuruSharky* · 08-17-2009, 10:13 PM

This is a thread for people who chose not to upgrade to a DSi and still are happy with their DS lite or regular DS.

Tell us why

The only reason I didn't upgrade my DS to a DSi is because of the lack of GBA cartridge which I use A LOT to play some of my favs like Pokemon Mystery Dungeon and Fire Emblems 7 & 8.

Anyways... if anyone else is like me and didn't upgrade tell us why lol

A few reasons why I didnt upgrade. First off, lack of GBA cartridge, 'nuff said. Secondly, It's basically the same as the first two, but just a lot of different add-ons that seem pointless. Thirdly, why waste money when you basically have the main idea of the system in the previous two DS systems?

And in a couple of months we will have the same topic but instead of DSi it will be the PSP GO lol.

I did not buy a DSi because why should I? Crummy camera, crummy internet, lose GBA backwards compatability, nothing to special about it. O wait SHORTER BATTERY LIFE!

They're making a new PSP? Didn't know that one...

Shorter Batterylife? My sister has one and yeah I guess I noticed it doesnt last nearly as long as mine.

Well the reason why I didn't buy a DSi is because, I have no use for a system that doesn't bring my need of gaming to me. As the DS lite. The interest, in hand held consoles have died, from lack of entertaining good mature games. The only games I've EVER owned in hand-held games have always been pokemon. And I don't want to sound blunt, but I do NOT want to be a "pokemon master" anymore. So pretty much Nintendo is dead to me. Very dead to me..

The only reason I haven't upgraded to the DSi yet, is because I don't have the money. If I did have the money (which is about $100 onto what I already have) I'd definitely buy one because A. I don't have a charger for my DS Lite and B. It has some amazing features.

But when I did have the option to buy a DSi, I didn't. Mostly because I was hoping to use the money for something else and I would miss my DS Lite, seeing as I would have to turn it in for the extra cash.
