Cheap DSi?

[John the Monkey]

Daughter got a 3DS in the summer after being an avid DSLite user for a number of years. The 3DS has barely been used - she still plays on the DSLite as there are barely any 3D games of the kind she likes worth spending money on.

I, on the other hand, would love to get her 3DS as there are a number of games that would suit me down to the ground.

In the meantime I content myself playing the Virtual Reality game 'Face Raiders' on it, as well as playing the VR games that spring to life from the card you put on the table. Oh, and there are some great 3D videos that you can download fro free via the Video app.

The 3DS will play regular DS games, and that's what my son does with his, mostly, although he really enjoyed the 3D streetfighter & Pilot Wings, iirc.

Ah, but does the 3DS take the 'special' cards ? Ahem !

I keep telling her that - buy she insists that they don't look as good on the 3DS as they do on the DSLite, hence the reason she still plays them on the old one.

Glad I wasn't the one who coughed up the £180 it cost for the 3DS when she got it (although I suspect did indirectly, as the child maintenance probably paid for it!)
