Suzy Crampton Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I'm planning to buy DS a DS lite for Christmas and noticed that in next week's Kmart ad they have accessories on sale. Does he need them? And if so, which ones? TIA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ripn Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 which accessories are you thinking of getting him? All we bought extra so far was a stylus (they lose them) and 1 screen protector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinydancer34 Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 I don't know if the starter kit would be a better deal if purchased elsewhere, but I know my DS has definitely benefited from having a car adapter as well as screen protectors (he is very hard on the screen with the stylus). The additional styluses (stylii??) might be advantageous if a child tends to misplace things, but my DS is pretty good about putting the stylus back in place once he's finished. And depending on how many games you'll be purchasing, this comes with 6 plastic game cases as well. While we do have headphones, he never uses them. I just make him turn the volume down if we don't want to hear it. I hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racerfan Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 (edited) I recommend the started kit. With it you can get a case that will hold the xtra games and stylus, car charger etc so everything is in one place. Both my kids have the starter kits just different colors. Extra stylus also come with it and screen protectors are a must. If you can get the wrist strap that would be good or some case you can play with it inside so it is protected if dropped.

Suzy Crampton Posted August 10, 2008 Author Share Posted August 10, 2008 Thanks! I thought about the starter kit, we got him one for his GBA and it did have a lot of extra handy items in it. I wondered about the extra stylus kit, he is pretty good about taking care of stuff but just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngeP Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I purchased one last year from Target online and the accessory kit was included. It included the case, car charger, game cartridge, screen protector, extra stylus and few other extras. It was definitely worth it. The screen protector is a must and the extra stylus are always good to have on hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzy Crampton Posted August 15, 2008 Author Share Posted August 15, 2008 I have kinda noticed that Target seems to be the only place that offers "Something" w/purchase. Will they offer something like this soon or is it usuallly closer to Christmas time? I really want to get on ASAP for Christmas budget reasons but want the best deal I can get. I will check Target.com and see what they have today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
