[quote name='sfried']A matter of opinion. I was more after the DSiWare exclusive than any of the additional functionality when I got a DSi. Now it's paying off with Flipnote Studio and some solid DSiWare releases like Mighty Flip Champs and Dark Void Zero. Plus, I'm surprised that the audio quality is significantly clearer on the DSi compared to the Lite.
For the same price as a Lite, you shouldn't hesitate getting a DSi over the lower model.[/QUOTE]
Yes, you may find 2-3 good games on the DsiWare store, but the rest are junk titles based on regular DS games (stripped versions of the real thing).
And I think it's a stretch to call Flipnote Studio a reason to own a DSi. Yes, it's nice, but it's not a real game after all.
The extra weight of the Dsi, and reduced battery life are reason enough not to bother for those that already have a DSLite. If they're in the same price range, then sure maybe you should go for the DSi, if at all interested.
However, ToysRus is giving away a $20.00 giftcard, and some free accessories (stylus, and case) this week with a DSLite purchase.
So, I'd still go with that, and not this Dsi offer.
