Now that the new Nintendo DSi has been out for a while a lot of people are asking new owners if it’s really worth buying. The third generation handheld Nintendo DS console is definitely different than its older counterparts, but many are questioning if the differences are worth the extra price. Right now you can purchase a new DS Lite for around $129 or less while a new DSi will cost you $169 or more.

Before you run out and buy a new DSi just because it’s the latest and greatest gadget there’s a few things you should know. This newest version of the DS console is slightly larger (yes, larger) than the DS Lite. The dimensions are a few millimeters wider. However, Nintendo did manage to knock almost 8 oz. (half-pound) off the weight by making the console thinner which is noticeable. The screen is also larger but only by 1/4 inch. The only way you would probably notice is if you’re a nerd like me and decided to pull out your ruler to check. The screen is brighter but unfortunately the pretty display also drains more life from the battery. The highest brightness setting on the DSi will give you 3-4 hours of play time while the highest brightness setting on the DS Lite can keep you playing Mario Kart for 5-8 hours.

The main differences you’ll find between the Nintendo DS Lite and the DSi has to do with the software and input/output capabilities. Probably the biggest perk to owning the new DSi is the DSiWare software which enables you to download new games and applications via a wireless Internet connection. Similar to WiiWare for the Nintendo Wii console, you can purchase points which later can be redeemed online at the Nintendo DSi shop.

Other DSi perks include a web browser for surfing the Internet, two digital cameras (one on the inside and one on the outside), a VGA web cam, and the ability to play AAC sound files (MP3 capabilities would have been better). The Nintendo DSi also has a SD memory card slot which can be used for saving photos and sound files. However, this also means that you can no longer play GameBoy Advance games on the DSi console. This is probably not a big deal unless you’re a big Guitar Hero fan.

Most serious gamers find the new Nintendo DSi less than inspiring due to the shorter battery life, lack of GBA slot, and same-old design for game play. If it made phone calls you might be able to call the DSi a smart phone which is a real turnoff for some. However, if you like the idea of using your DS for more than just playing video games and don’t already own a DS console it might be worth the extra money. The DSiWare alone will probably be worth more in the long run than the cheesy photo or sound applications. On the other hand, if you already own a DS Lite and are happy using it as a pure gaming machine you might be better off waiting for the next latest and greatest handheld gadget from Nintendo.

Either way, there are still hundreds of popular, educational, and addicting games to choose from that are compatible with both the Nintendo DS Lite and Nintendo DSi. No matter which console you have, you won’t run out of video games to keep you busy. To find the latest Nintendo DS Lite and DSi deals online you can visit my website: Cheap Nintendo DS Deals

The Nintendo DSi is slimmer and lighter than those that came before it. It also offers larger screens, dual cameras, as well as new music players. If the DS Lite came in a variety of colors, the Nintendo DSi will just let you choose between black and white. But I think that Nintendo will also offer new colors after some time, just like what they did with the DS Lite when there was clamor to add other colors.

When I browsed online for pictures of the Nintendo DSi, I am glad to see that there is indeed improvement about the graphics and the brightness of the LCD. When you look at it, the new addition to the DS handheld consoles also has a less glossy surface compared to the DS Lite. I read that it was actually changed to a matte finish instead of a glossy one. I think that it will work better because there is a tendency to leave some fingerprints on the DS Lite’s glossy finish after you are done playing.

According to reports, the DSi will still be able to play the old DS games as well as the games exclusive to it. But then, if you own Game Boy Advance games, the Nintendo DSi will not be able to play them anymore, unlike with the DS Lite. But even if they have removed the cartridge slot for Game Boy Advance, I believe that the new downloadable games that are exclusive for DSi will be so much better. As a replacement for the GBA cart slot, there is now an SD memory card slot in the Nintendo DSi.

I am also excited about downloading DSiWare games from the DSi Shop. Yes, it does sound a bit like WiiWare but I don’t really care. This online shop will operate on a point system, specifically by using Nintendo points. Once you have downloaded some games, you can store them either in the DSi’s internal memory or the SD card, which is very handy. Moreover, I love the idea of dual cameras that are included in the DSi. You can customize your photos and they have really interesting effects such as morphing your face, mirror effects, and adding graphics or frames.

I had already put down my name for the pre-order list but patience isn’t one of my countless virtues. I really cannot wait for April 5 to arrive because I want to get my hands on my own Nintendo DSi. I hope that it will live up to my expectations and once it’s delivered here, I will surely try every feature that it offers. So mark your calendars now and let’s wait with bated breath for the DSi’s highly-anticipated arrival.

Irrespective of religion and age, game consoles are popular between many demographics and cultures. Choosing a game console is down to preference, choosing where to buy a good deal can often get overlooked. What a principle shopper fails to notice is the nature of online competitiveness within the video game industry between retailers. Often a Nintendo DSi and best selling game are bundled together much cheaper. More importantly Nintendo DSi bundles and the games in the bundle change to respond to their competitors prices frequently. To add to that mix, try finding the colour of choice (white and black) being in stock when you want one. Take note and remember to shop at specialised Game Stock checking sites. Not only to break the habit of loyalty but to help you get the best deal.

What Are The New Features Of Nintendo DSi?

Typically with electronics, smaller, lighter, faster sums up a quick comparison of the DSi console new features compared to the DS. DSi weight is down 15% lighter than a DS Lite. 4 grams lighter than a DS Lite! DSi console generously has not one but two digital cameras, quite a peculiar feature. A webcam on the inside and still camera on the outer case. The lower touch screen has grown. The upper non touch sensitive LCD screen matches in size at 3.25 inches. One other improvement is the console was given enhanced speaker technology and microphone.

One of the greatest features with a DSi console is that it now comes with an SD card reader in place of the legacy GBA slot. When you take pictures using your console, you then store them on removable SD cards (16- 2GB). The DSi CPU speed runs @ 133MHz (2x faster), it has 16MB system memory and 256MB flash memory and talks in 802.11b Bluetooth range during wireless connectivity. The Camera pictures and audio files (AAC) can be transferred to a Personal Computer. Nintendo DSi Sound lets you play with music by adjusting pitch, adding samples and re-saving. A technical shootout is provided at Game Stock filed under DSi Vs DS Lite.

The new features might be part of some new game play exclusive to DSi consoles, or perhaps the camera features are novel, not being the main point of gaming. All the exciting features together deserve the console to be recognized as a new series in Nintendo Entertainment Systems handheld consoles.

Top Games in DSi Bundles

Download & Play with Nintendo DSiWare

Chances are you’ve heard of just about every way there is to make money on the Internet. But some people think outside the box when coming up with ways to make money online. Here are 3 wacky ways people have come up with to earn money from the Internet.

Crazy Business #1. Uploading music to other people’s iPods. I guess even with today’s technology, some people still can not learn how to upload music to their own iPod. I saw a story a while back about a woman in New York who started a business doing just that…uploading music to people’s iPods. Apparently she’s so successful at it that she had to hire three employees. The story said that she pulled in about $100,000 per year in sales. This is simply amazing to me!

Crazy Business #2. Domain picker. Yeah, you heard right. There’s a service out there that does nothing other than pick domains for people and businesses. You send them $50 and tell them what kind of domain you’re looking for. They then send you a list of domain names. Pretty clever huh? According to the story in the paper, the guy has no problem keeping busy with companies and individuals needing a domain name. Go figure.

Crazy Business #3. A guy who’s hobby was pickling started his own home based business by experimenting with Family pickling recipes. He whipped up the recipes in his own Kitchen. He then gave away these wildly flavored pickled items to his friends to see which ones they like. He’s taken his business online and one report states that his business has increased by 200%!

These are just a few examples of thinking outside the box when it comes to making money online. It just goes to show you that you don’t have to follow the same path as everyone else! So what kind of wacked out ways to make money can you come up with?

The first step for almost anybody who wants to make money online is to learn how to make money with affiliate marketing. This is a good first step because it teaches, by way of experience, the basics of internet marketing. It’s also good for the beginner because you don’t have to spend time or money creating your own product or spending lots of money on a good sales writer.

As an affiliate marketer, your job is not to sell but to pre-sell your affiliate products. This doesn’t involve making a direct pitch. Rather, your affiliate marketing website, blog or e-list should concentrate on the problems your niche market experiences. After all, most products–especially information products–are sold to people who have a problem they want to solve.

When you sell someone else’s product, you don’t have to worry about paying anyone to write a sales letter because it’s already done for you. You also don’t have to worry about testing different versions of the sales letter to see which one works better. (Product owners do this all the time, because even something as small as a new headline or extra bullet point can add thousands of dollars of value if it drives up enough site traffic.) The benefit of this is that you can use the sales letter that’s already been written to identify not only what the problem is, but also the emotional triggers associated with it. Then, on your blog, your web pages or on your e-list, you can talk about those problems from the angle of a consumer. You don’t even have to directly pitch the product–in fact, it’s often better if you don’t! Just make sure you provide a link and a small advertisement about the product somewhere close to your content.

Good sales letters written by competent sales writers can cost anywhere up to the low four-figure to the five-figure range. One reason good sales literature costs so much is because the writer may end up spending a whole month researching it. It’s not just sales words that go into the material. Hours and hours of product research–and more importantly, market and consumer research–go into the building of a sales letter. Good sales writers are “worth their rate” in gold, though. After all, a sales letter is what gets that prospect to say the final “yes.”

Ultimately, creating your own product (or paying somebody to create it), then marketing it, is one of the best and most fulfilling ways to earn an income online. But this can take time and financial resources that most beginners just don’t have. Learning to make money online with affiliate marketing can also keep you from making costly mistakes when you finally do have your own product. Mistakes are part of the learning process, and you should expect to make a few when you first start out. But it’s best to make them when you don’t have large amounts of your own money, or your own brand, at stake.

2. If you wish to get desired price for an article then you should opt to sell your work. There are many such sites that promote selling of articles, but you would have to give away exclusive or non-exclusive rights while selling your work. With this option you have to be patient as it can take time to find potential clients.

3. If you have an idea, that you want to put up in the form of a book or an e-book but you are looking for a publisher, then sit back and be ready to enjoy the royalty you can get. Now there are many websites that can publish your e-book on the Internet without charging you a penny.

4. The best thing that you should do is to keep the rights of your work and allow different sites to publish your articles on the Internet or sell them. This is the best way with which you can earn maximum profit by putting in little efforts. You can have the same article published on different websites and enjoy the amount that you get from all the clicks that your article gets.

5. You can also try to place affiliate links in your articles. This would help you to generate additional revenues.

There are any number of reasons that drive people to want to have their own home business. Regardless of which way you choose to make money online the most important thing you need to do is start with a business plan. Our experience has shown that most potential business owners simply run out and start their business without a plan in place. This is a mistake!

As tedious and difficult as it may seem, a good business plan will help your business to stay on track. Without a good business plan, it’s easy to forget the tasks that you need to complete. It is also easy to lose all of your money because you have not created a budget within your business plan.

This will often times leave business owners borrowing money from their personal bank accounts to keep the business afloat and pretty soon, all of your money has been put into a bankrupt home office! Creating a business plan will help you to develop your business and take it from the dream to the reality. Now on to how you actually make money online. There are hundreds of ways to make money online. Here are just a few:

Create a Blog – Start a blog on a topic you love. If you can build up a large reader base you can make money by selling advertising on your site.

Start a Podcast – Very similar to a blog, but using audio or video instead. Talk about what you want and make money from the ads.

Write Articles for Websites or Marketers – Many people and sites require high quality content for their websites and/or information products and these are often outsourced. If you are a good writer you can make a living doing it.

Translate Documents – If you speak a second language you can translate documents and get paid.

Create and Sell Websites – If you can build quality websites you can easily make a living by creating and selling content websites.

Create Websites for Others – If you can create a website to sell, you can certainly create a website for someone who will pay you.

Buy and Sell Domains – If you can find and purchase quality domain names you can buy low and sell at a profit. Combine that with the suggestion above and make even more.

Write Software – There is always room for full blown software packages, widgets, applications or scripts that make life easier for people.

Sell Your Own Products on eBay – The most difficult part of this job is packaging and mailing.

Sell Other Peoples Stuff on eBay – Go to garage sales, flea markets, estate sales, find low priced items and resell on eBay for a profit or buy bulk discontinued items and sell them off individually. You can even sell other companies products and they will drop ship with your company name and you don’t have to do anything other than list the products.

Sell Photographs – If you are a good photographer you can take photographs and sell them as stock photos on other websites. Sites like iStockPhoto.com allow you to sell the same photo to hundreds of websites.

Buy an Already Profitable Website and Keep It – It’s a lot easier than starting from scratch.

Become a Virtual Assistant – There are many online business and people who simply don’t have time to do everything themselves. You can easily provide whatever service they need and charge an hourly rate.

Install Applications for Others – People are constantly getting hung up and asking for help with installs on websites. Install software for them and charge a fee for it.

Affiliate Marketing – Sell other peoples products and get a commission.

Create Information Products – Create and sell information in the form of books, audio, video or all three.

The list can go on and on. There are virtually hundreds and maybe even thousands of ways to make money online. All you need to do is find what works for you and begin.
