DS LITE, Poor quality VS Original Reply to this Post Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Posts Report Post to a Moderator       Go to the top of this page

Ok,

I got a DS lite when it was released, great I thought It has so many imporvements over the original.
*Adjustible Brightness on Backlight
*Slimmer "sexier" design
*Smaller
*GBA games fit it better
and many more

But after having it for about 10 mins I noticed one niggling problem,
The D-pad is piss poor, it is so hard to get it to do diagonals that its
near impossible, and trying to play ResI is just a farce.

and also ive already had three of them 2 had a shitload of dead pixels on the touch screen and main screen and all of the had fecked D-pads.

The original DS's D-pad is beautifully easy to use compared to the DS lite, anyway its annoying.

I cant help think that nintendo rushed the DS-Lite so that it could compete more easily with the PSP.

Anyone else notice this? Got any thoughts?

If your going to buy one just ask the sale person if you can hold to see if it is a problem for you. That way you will know before you waste your money on it.

From what you guys say, it seems that the problems with the d-pad etc
are not too frequent although really we need more people to report on their ds-lites otherwise theres not really much evidence to say either way.
