I really, really, really love the Nintendo DSi, and I’m so glad that my dad bought it for me!
I am 9 years old and I love to do lots of stuff outside. I ride horses and play soccer and do a lot of different sports. I do not usually play video games. My mom and dad got divorced a few years ago and I spend half the time with my mom and half the time with my dad. They live about two hours apart, so my mom and dad have to take turns driving me back and forth. It gets really boring.
My dad went out to get one for me when he heard about it so that I wouldn’t be bored when he has to drive me to my moms house. I did not know how to use it at first. It was really weird. I never played a DS before, even though my best friend has one, so it took me a while to get used to it.
My dad helped me figure it out. We read the instruction book and the reviews to see what it could do. The first thing I figured out how to use was the camera. The first time after my dad had gone to buy the Nintendo DSi and we had to go to moms house I took tons of pictures and made faces and stuff on them on the DSi.
At my moms house we learned more about what it could do and figured out that the Nintendo DSi system could go online. It doesn’t go very fast, and I can’t use it in the car, but it’s kinda neat to be able to check my email from my dad when I’m at my moms on the DSi.
My mom took me out to buy some new games and I found a great horse game that I love. You can use the little pen to get the horse to go where you want it to and you can do tons of other stuff with it. I played that on the way home for over an hour and wanted to play more.
I know that a lot of my friends want to buy Nintendo DSi, but they don’t know where to find it. I hope they find one. My mom and my dad and I have all had fun playing with it and downloading stuff from the DSi store. We play puzzle games and all sorts of stuff. I can even make little animations on the moving notepad thing. I’m really glad my dad bought me the DSi so that I can play it in the car, and I play it when I’m not in the car too, just for fun. It’s a really great machine!
