So yeah I just got a DSi *necropost*

There's lots of things I could say about it, but I really only care for two things:

The material quality is so fucking shit. The DS Lite is really smooth and feels nice (even if you get enough fingerprints on it to clone yourself). The DSi is horrible and grainy and just feels shockingly cheap. It is really really horrible to hold.

Also the power button is under the D-pad. Under the fucking D-pad. Think about this for a second, or better yet just grab hold of your DS and start playing it. Your thumb is resting on the power button unless you hold it at a funny angle. I'm going to end up resetting mid game all the time.

How big are your freakin thumbs? Also the button isn't that easy to press I've had mine for a while now and never reset mid game. The casing isn't graet tho. It's gonna be easy to scratch. Guess I'll have to be careful.

I think it depends on what angle you hold your thumbs. If you held them straight up I could see how you might hit that button, but if you hold them at an angle with the thumbs pointing towards the center, I don't think you'd hit it.
