I´m thinking about buying a Nintendo DS. I´m a huge Nintendofan but I´ve always loved playing games on the big screen. I bought a Game Boy Advance a few years back and I was really annoyed and disappointed with the lightning of the portables screen. It seemed to me that it was near impossible to get a lightning that was optimal for playing games so I sold it quickly.

DS owners, I wanted to ask you for your advice. Do you feel the light on the screen is optimal for playing games or is it a issue? How does the lightning compare to the one on Game Boy Advance if you had one?

Finally should I go with a DS or a DSi if I decide to buy one? I know the DSi has a bigger screen and more power, I just don´t know if I feel the extra money is worth it.

Thanks.

EDIT: I just bought a white DSi yesterday with a Mario Kart DS to go along with it. Wonderful game, wonderful console!
