Nintendo DS Lite review

The DS Lite makes the same fashion statement for videogame systems that the iPod did for MP3 players -- slimmed down and brightened up, it's a beauty. It may not have the multimedia capabilities of the Sony PSP, but it can play games online and the games themselves are colourful, innovative and lots of fun -- and the DS Lite is much cheaper Read more

Nintendo Wii review

Underplaying processing power and using a strange new controller setup could have been major mistakes. But we think Nintendo has pulled it off. It's strange, it's new and it's not as powerful as other consoles, but the Wii succeeds in its primary mission: fun Read more

Nintendo 3DS review

The Nintendo 3DS' 3D capability is its headline feature, but really it's just the icing on the cake. This feature-packed little console offers tonnes of fun, even if its battery life is slightly pants. Read more

Nintendo DSi review

The DSi offers bigger screens and better audio quality than its predecessor, the DS Lite, as well an improved menu system, twin cameras and audio-playback capability. Battery life has fallen and more could have been made of some of its features, but the DSi is a great games console for those who don't already own a Lite Read more

Nintendo Game Boy Micro review

It's been 16 years since Nintendo invented handheld gaming with the Game Boy, but the Micro is more of a repackaging than a revolution. The third iteration of the hugely successful Game Boy Advance format, it offers a tiny form factor and a brighter screen -- but it doesn't cost much less than the more advanced DS Read more

Nintendo Wii MotionPlus review

The Wii MotionPlus adaptor promises to provide finer control with the Wii remote, and we found it delivers well with some games. Ultimately, it's up to developers to make the most of the MotionPlus, but this accessory has great potential. We'd like to see a Wii remote with it built in, though Read more

Nintendo DSi XL review

The DSi XL is a super-sized version of the DSi, with significantly larger screens. It's a shame that the two cameras haven't received a resolution boost and that the internal storage hasn't been increased, but the big screens do come in handy and the device's battery life is outstanding Read more
