1 out of 5 stars Screwdriver sucks   December 28, 2007
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

The screwdriver provided doesn't actually open the compartment! And then the battery still didn't work when I managed to pry the compartment open (although I am not sure if that is the fault of the DS or the battery). I would not buy this at all.


2 out of 5 stars Not nearly as good as the original..   December 12, 2007

I highly suggest you skip over this, and purchase a Nintendo original. I purchased this battery as a spare, because I do quite a bit of trans-pacific travel. The claims for this battery are that it will give you 3 hours of play time. I find this ridiculous. In all of my attempts, I have received a little over 1 hour of actual play time. While I have had no problems with it fitting into the battery slot, it seems that others have.


3 out of 5 stars not perfect, but works   October 19, 2007

screwdriver doesn't quite fit, and may actually round off the screw instead of backing it out if you're not careful. The battery is a shade big for the slot. If you get it to fit (not TOO hard to do) then it works like it's supposed to.

Don't waste your time or money with this product. I tried to insert the battery and it didn't fit in the battery slot. I compared this battery's dimensions to the Nintendo battery. This battery is .8 mm too big to fit into the battery compartment.


2 out of 5 stars Not as good as the nintendo battery   December 28, 2006

Positive - the screwdriver that comes with the battery fits the nintendo DS lite screw well.

Negatives -
#1 - The battery I received is a very tight fit. This is advertized on the package as "you can swap batteries in a snap". It was difficult to get the battery in, and required a small flathead screwdriver to pry it back out (the screw is a phillips, so you need to take an extra flathead with you). Not what I would call "a snap".

The original nintendo battery goes in and comes out of the battery compartment easily.

#2 - The packaging claims "up to 3 hours extra play time". I have not tested the battery because of #1, but my son has played for well over 5 hours on the original nintendo battery without requiring a recharge.

#3 - nintendo offers a replacement battery that is supposed to be the same as the one included with the ds lite for $15 plus shipping.
