Honestly I don't really know why I got one. I never ever play it because I never buy games for it. I'm notorious for buying a console but not buying games for it cause i'm so cheap!

i first brought one as i like to keep up with technology and get the new gadget as soon as it comes out. I got bored of it so sold it then brought a DSi for my mom and got hooked on it again so have gone out and brought another one this time for keeps!

Because it's a very innovative console. Great touch screen functions. But really, it's because it's Nintendo and with games like Mario, I simply couldn't refuse the DS.

I bought a DSi, because it would allow me to play AAC files without extensive hacking knowledge. Plus the camera function is kinda nice, but the gaming is the main point.

Just before I got my DS I got a Flash device for my GBA that came with a DS part. After I got it working on my GBA and tested it on a friend's DS I got my own since I could get free games.

My GBA SP was getting kinda bland and plus the DS had Wi-Fi which is pretty much why I wanted it and plus i knew there would be some sort of H4X coming for it.

I bought the DS because I wanted to play Nintendo games. I missed playing the Mario games I had as a kid. And Nintendo games tend to be more happy whereas a lot of PS2 games I have tend to be dark and bloody.

I always wanted the DS, seemed to have alot of games that looked interesting. Another reason is because sometimes, I don't have hrs to play, but i wanna play something, so the ds seemed like a nice handheld to get some quick plays from. The biggest reason that I bought it was because my brother's friend traded it to me for 2 games that ended up clostin me $40 altogether.

I bought a DS mainly to play while I was out, and had nothing else better to do. Also I knew Pokemon would come out for it, and it's probably one of my favorite DS games XD

I was brought my DS but i really wanted it. I loved the older nintendo hand helds and they used to keep me amused for hours and hours at a time. When i went to uni my mum thought it would be a good ide to buy me one to keep me in some nights.... i must say, it worked XD

I bought my DS because many games from then were being made all for DS, so with a GBA with all games already completed i was kinda late if i didnt buy a DS was like boring ... already done this game, not fun anymore <.<, and on DS everything is much more better graphically mainly than GBA
