Alright,

Say what you will but I ordered a DSi through Fingerhut. With being able to pay for it monthly, it's the best chance to get a DSi(even if I have to pay like $90 more). Especially, since money's tight right now. Also, it's kinda a test run, as they have stuff in their catalog for cheap that I haven't seen anywhere else(a 5-in-1 stereo for $125).

But, the reason for this thread is to ask a few questions and to get your opinions on it. I know a few people on here HAVE to have one.

Help me learn more about this from your experiences. BTW, does Nintendo still include points with a new DSi or did that promotion stop? I heard the points were good until November, that's why I'm asking.

I like mine. The bigger screen, improved controls and better sound thump the Lite handily. Access to DL DSiWare has not been as good as I original hoped for. There are some good titles out, just not many yet. I highly recommend you nab PictoBits. It's really fun. I also have Base10 and enjoy it, but YMMV on that one. They're each 500 points and those two were my freebies. I'm thinking about getting Flip Champs next. I'm waiting until there are more titles available that I want to buy. Then I'll pick up a point card or buy points through the DS itself. Be warned, you can only purchase points in set denominations through online CC transactions. So if there isn't a few games available to eat it all up, you're gonna be sitting on some points. Kinda like the Wii. I've been there and done that. I don't care much to sit on ~1500 points for months again.
