 Don't waste your time or moneyAug 21, 2007

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.

 Not as good as the nintendo batteryDec 28, 2006
By Amazon fan
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.

Not nearly as good as the original..Dec 12, 2007
By J. Thompson
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.

The replacement battery sucks.Dec 31, 2007
By P. Lopez
Thought this was a good deal but was too tight and I ended up forcing it into the DS and now the DS won't work at all. All in all, a very expensive replacement battery as I had to replace the DS at a much higher price than original.

Screwdriver sucksDec 28, 2007
By Staci
"Microsoftie"
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.
