Hello everybody,

Well following my PSP blog I decided to check out the facts of Nintendo's DSI.

It looks like they have made some pretty cool improvements over the DS and DSL.

Now I myself don't own a DSI but am still a proud owner of my Nintendo DS lite.


The DSI has some pretty cool features such as a two camera's one on the outside and one on the inside!

Now where does It save the pictures you ask?

Well in the new SD card slot! The addition of an SD card allows you to Transfer files to and from your DSI such as music files.

The DSI even has it's own DSI store where you can download games and applications directly to your DSI over Wifi.

This is really interesting because it means that the DS is catching up to the PSP and Iphone in terms of having it's own virtual store.

Although to add in all these new features and still keep in its same shape and size they had to eliminate something.

That something is the GBA slot which means if you were thinking of migrating from your NDS or NDS Lite with your collection of GBA games you

may be a bit disappointed. This also means that if you have any DS games that have a GBA slot accessory they will no longer be playable this includes

guitar hero on tour's guitar grip and the DS rumble pack.

Overall there isn't much reason not to buy this New DS except for the loss of GBA slot but even that is not too big a deal since you can always keep

an old GBA or DS around.

Hope you enjoyed this brief Overview of the Cool New DSI

Hello There Reader,
A new device has recently come out and is causing quite a stir in the PlayStation community. This sleek new device is PlayStation's newest portable device the PSP go!





Now I'll go on with a short overview of the products pros and cons!

Pros:
-This new PSP is 43% lighter than the previous model which is a really nice improvement, lighter is better!

-Unlike the other versions this PSP has 16GB of built in memory which means you probably wont ever need to buy a separate memory stick!


-Bluetooth Support! This means that you should be able to connect various Bluetooth devices to you PSP(for instance wireless headsets).









Cons:

-The PSP Go screen size is 3:8 inches which is significantly smaller than its previous system (PSP 3000) which has the screen size of 4:3 inches.
-A major con to the new PSP is the lack of a UMD drive which wont concern people who have never owned a PSP but will definitely be a setback to people looking to upgrade from there UMD based PSP.

-Pricing. We all now that everything new can start out at a fairly high price and the PSP Go is definitely no exception! It is currently being sold at 200 to 250 for the system alone!
