The DSi's music-playing capability isn't as bad as you think

February 23, 2009 in Guides comments 11

Many have lambasted the DSi for supporting only AAC and very basic music playing features. But I've written a post to set things straight and you just might be convinced enough to save money with a DSi instead of an iPod Touch. And maybe even throw out your current MP3 collection for one encoded in AAC.

    I'll stick to my R4 with the user-made MP3 player on it. And no, you don't get a steal for using iTunes, they are JUST NOW getting rid of non-DRM'd

    Open source for the win. All the time.

      I think anybody who has to spend their money to be able to pass on to the end-user without charging them a penny is a steal. Apple is making money hand-over-fist now but this was a godsend back in iTunes 1.0.

    I'm quite happy with my DS Lite and I have an iPod so there's no point in wasting money on a DSi.

      This was clearly not intended for people like you, and I don't mean it in a bad way.

      Again, this isn't intended for you. You're more than suited for your situation.

    You can update Ipod firmware, and the battery argument is a little week tbh. The batteries last a very long time.

    But the rest is good info.

    Nintendo Way Of Making Dough:

    Make 2 Pokemon games the same, then make a remake the same.

    Make 2 DS's the same, then make a remake the same.
