In the table below we've compared the technical and physical features
of the Nintendo DSi vs DS Lite. Although the DSi
is superior in many respects, the DS Lite is better in at least
one category, which is battery life. It appears that the smaller
screen and the less powerfull processor in the DS Lite takes far
less juice from the battery.
Nintendo plan on selling these two consoles side by side for the
forseable future, they said they'd let the market decide when the
time was right to discontinue the DS Lite. The upshot is, if people
keeping buying the cheaper DS Lite they'll carry on selling it alongside
the more expensive DSi.
Key changes: Screen size and case thickness
