I used to have a phat, till it got stolen along with my m3 cf, my 1gb cf card, and about 100 pounds...and my library card, lol. So I voted imaginary.
I never really saw the difference. The phat is a lot tougher, and a portable device has to be made to suffer scratches and bumps. All I've heard about the lite is the hinges breaking every two minutes...

Aww man the new crimson and black lite looks so AWESOME!!!! O well guess I can't complain cause I have a black lite...

I bought my black ds lite in June. I was going to buy a used phat and game bundle for like $80 on ebay, but then I reconsidered and got the lite. Really glad I did!

I originally bought a DS phat within a month of the initial release. When the DSlites came out, I waited until they released the black one in America and then bought that. I have since sold the phat to my brother-in-law to give to his niece. She still enjoys it to this day.

. But since then i have tried a number of lites and I find them just slightly fragile especially the shoulder buttons they seemed flimsy although not sure about the lastest batch of lites. But have stuck with the phat faithfullly and it has not let me down yet...

Black Lite I bought a few weeks ago, and an original I'm hoping to sell. I didn't think there'd be a big difference, but the picture is a lot better with the Lite in my opinion.

I have a white lite, and should be getting a navy lite soon. When I get the navy, I'm gonna buty one of those black shells off DX, and make my white lite a dalmatian lol.

i hear the speakers on the ds phat are way better, kind of makes me jealous. i love my ds lite but i HATE how quiet the speakers are.

It's actually a pretty minimal difference. It definitely is louder, but not by much. Quality wise, I'd say they're exactly the same, but I'm no audiophile. Either way, the slight difference in volume in no way makes up for the other advantages the Lite has over the Phat.

My speakers on my Phat were about 2.5 times as loud as other Phats, and about 5 times louder than a Lite.

I believe my top screen shakes from the beginning of the Phantom Hourglass theme (yes, the quiet chorus) to the very end.

I thought there were only white, black, pink, ice blue(japan), and crimson/black. You mean navy as in darkish blue, rite?

    Hello
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    @SylverReZ find me ONE community that is free of drama and politics. even video games forums (like this one) have politics section. and for some reason gamers still take consoles/brands wars seriously. even as a kid i never took the console wars bait despite being a nintendo kid.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    one of the reasons i deleted all my social media accounts, reddit account (although i was rarely using it) etc was to get away from this shit.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Vetusomaru, Sadly, not all communities like to play nice. Forums are pretty much dying despite Discord amongst other social media being available.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    i only kept my twitter accounts and only because many of the artists i like share their art only/mostly at twitter.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    lots of discord groups (even the big ones) are also dead for some reason.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Twitter is way too shittier.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    that's why i added some firefox addons to block shit like twitter trends.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Discord, on the other hand, moderation tends to not be very nice in video game communities from what I had experienced.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    nah, discord is also a shithole. discord is good only if you have your own community with your own rules. or if you re lucky to find some groups that arent shitholes.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    as about forums, when i recently revisited some old forums i used to be regular and seeing how immature most members still are i was like "Yeap. Nothing of value has been lost.". Unfortunately it's the good, comfy forums that ended up dead or shut down, especially because of internet centralization.
