hope this gets noticed in here...
Getting my daughter a Nintendo DSi for Christmas and I have a few questions.
Which games format does the DSi play? Will regular DS and 3DS play in it? Any recommendations on a carrying case? Preferably something that can hold games and the stylus too. She is 5 but plays games on her moms ipad and computer (disney jr stuff). Any Recommendations on good games? |

If youre going for a ds get the dsi xl. Only $130 and the better bang for your buck.

I bought my nephew one of those for his b-day when he turned 7. He fucking LOVED it. That being said, no idea what games a 5 year old girl would like. Perhaps nintendogs?

A Dsi will play any games besides 3DS games. So anything prior to what's been coming out the last year or two. My girlfriend loves Nintendogs. Basically you raise a virtual dog. You can feed it play with it etc. She has the same taste in games as most five year olds I'd say.

So I bought 2 games at walmart (hello kitty and disney princess) and ordered two more on Cyber Monday (magic school bus and Barbie). Family member going to get her Marios bros. Also got her the cool Mario "pull & go" carrying case.

My niece was your daughters age when she had her first DS. There are a couple things to keep in mind. She'll lose the stylus. By an extra one or a pack. Most games are going to be too complex for someone her age, even if the game features characters from age-appropriate cartoons. Pinkie Pie's Party is a good choice. |

POKEMON!! Everybody (especially kids) are pretty much garunteed to love Pokemon games, even if they dont necessarily like Pokemon itself, the games are that awesome. Lol to this day I still remember when I turned 6 and my mom bought me a Game Boy Color and Pokemon Red Version. Without a doubt one of my greatest memories/experiences ever involving playing a video game or receiving a gift lol.
