My wife loves it! I bought this case for my wife, since she is Japanese, and she loves it! It keeps her DS protected in her pocket book and she can, also, store a few games in the pockets inside. I've been wanting to get her a new, more girly case, but she says no way!
my favorite case I've looked at a lot of cases, and I have to say this is my favorite so far. One of my pet peeves is when the inside surface is scratchy - not so with this case! Very compact, so it's almost like carrying around the DS itself. There are some elastic straps inside to hold it in place, but the case was so snug I didn't feel a need to use them. Cheers to Hori!
Very nice case I love this case. It has a flap of cloth around the zipper so it doesn't scratch the DS. The fuzzy inside materia is also nice. This case fits my DS even though it has a silicone cover over it. I've had it for a couple of months and it still looks new.
Good case Better looking than in the picture, really it is! It has great padding, place to put your games in, and even has elastics to hold the DS lite in, and protects well from the zipper. Protects the DS all together and its officially licensed by Nintendo. Definitely worth buying. You won't be disappointed.

Great case I have a Hori case for my original DS Phat and buying a case for my Lite was a no brainer. Hori cases have to be the best 3rd party cases you buy. They are even better and more stylish than the original Nintendo offerings and Hori products are officially licensed as well.
When this case arrived I was not disappointed. It definitely looks better in real life than it does in the pictures. Great size, not too bulky and stylish ! Recommended !!!
5/5 for Play-Asia .. 4/5 for the case Firstly, review system told me not to talk about the service rendered, but I'm going to anyway: absolute first class customer service and excellent delivery!
The case itself looks great; can't help but keep looking at it. However, the colour of the case is slightly different from the one in the picture. Firstly, the zipper is black, and some white accents in the picture are actually black.
Build quality of the case ... is not what I expected. Everyone is raving about the shock absorbing material but really, it is quite thin. As some of the other reviews have stated, it is probably the best bag for the DSL right now, but nonetheless, don't go dropping it. The case is made in China.
Overall, I don't regret this purchase despite differences in expectation.
Excellent!! The case just arrived today, and I love it! I think this is the best looking officially licensed case available for the DS Lite. It is very sturdy without being bulky. The padding is somewhat rigid and the outside material seems really durable. A very important feature (and something I was specifically looking for) is the fabric sewn on the inside between the zipper and the DS to further protect it from scratches.
A note about the color: it's actually a lighter, more mellow pink than what is pictured. I think it looks much better in person. It's not a 100% color match with the pink DS Lite, but it's pretty close.
The best DS lite case, period The best looking DS lite case, and 1 of the best on the inside as well. I was worried that the fabric lining the inside was a bit scratchy but it has not scratched my DS. Nice and tight & compact, hard enough to be protective to bumps etc, and has inside compartments for 2 DS cards and 1 GBA cart.
Awesome case! I see alot of the DS cases at Bestbuy, Gamestop etc... but this Hori one is so much better. Alot of the people are right the case does look alot better in person, nicely padded inside and stiff but not hard on the outside, very sleek. Definitely recommend the purchase!

i love it!! i had the multi pouch ds lite the white one from hori, but i use that now for traveling, that one is bigger, and stores more, but this case is great for on the go, its really soft and has badding around the zippers so your lite doesnt get scratched! it cradles your ds and its just rally awsome! visit the site for more pictures!!
The case to own As with all Hori products, its not only an official DS accessory, but also very high quality. The outside of the case is a tough textile, but the inside is a soft fabric, very nice. It has little pouches to hold 2 DS games and 1 GBA game, and they are all deep. So your games are fully inside the little pockets, with a little fabric to spare.
Its the ideal case for travelers, just throw in a backpack and go. And it appears that it would make a short drop a damage-less ones too. I don't regret my purchase at all.
lovely case! Arrived today, this case is much better than anything I could buy in UK shops. It fits my DS lite perfectly, great colour and good quality material. Slots for games work well and will protect DS lite from scratches and small bumps well. Love it!!!
Perfct Case Got this case for my black ds lite. Its perfect. Its pretty small, perfect size in my cargo pocket. I didn't want my ds to be all scratched up in my pocket so I chose this one. Now I can carry it in my cargo pocket without worrying about it being damaged. Its alot smaller than most bulky cases. Its has a semi hard surface for protection. Perfect case, just like all other Hori products.

Very good value. Just received mine today and upon first impressions I am pleased with this case. It is well constructed however the soft fabric on the inside appears cheap. This is the only shortcoming for me. The case will hold two DS games and one GBA game in pockets on the top inside the case which is great if you just want to bring a couple games with you. The DS Lite fits snugly and is well protected from scratches.
Overall a very good value.

Quite Satisfying! The case is much tougher than it looks in the pictures. I'm quite certain that absolutely no damage could come from dropping it from any reasonable height.
The insides are a very soft felt-like material and everything fits pretty darn snug. Definitely worth the buy!
Firstly, the pouch is actually much more rigid than it looks and would easily protect your DS Lite from a substantial fall. The two inner pockets will comfortably hold 2 games per pocket, for a total of 4 games! The larger inner pocket will hold a DS Lite expansion pack (like the Rumble Pak), GBA game or spare battery, plus a spare stylus.
There are two elastic straps inside the pouch in the bottom-left and bottom-right corners that will allow you to strap the bottom half of the DS in. This allows you to comfortably open and play the DS whilst it is inside the pouch, without fear of it slipping out.
One last thing, the blue pouch isn't as vivid blue as the images might suggest. It's more of a mellow, grey-blue, which is fine for me, I was worried about it being a little too bright :-)
All round a great product, and I couldn't be happier. If you're looking for a great case for your DS Lite, then stop looking here!
great case i just received this case in the mail today and i love it. really great looking and functional pouch for the low price. the pink color is very cute for my fellow gamer girls out there. although there are only 2 spaces for ds games, you can easily fit 2 games in each of the slots. i would definately recommend this pouch over any of the north american cases out there right now which are mostly the "play in the case" style pouches.
Great pouch for everyday use This is a great pouch! I have no problem fitting a couple of DS games, a GBA game, a small cleaning cloth (folded and laid on top of the DSLite) and an extra stylus (just laid in front of the DSL and pushed under one elastic strap a bit) in this case. It won't hold the charger, though. Get the Multi Pouch for that.
An amazing pouch. A really good pouch for the DS lite. It fits so snugly inside too. One of the better looking pouches out there, which is always nice! Playasia also got it to me in the UK in 6 days, impressive!
Extremely Good DS Lite Carrying Case! This case is amazing! It is much smaller than I expected(which is a good thing, by the way), but it still carries my DS Lite and all of my DS games perfectly and firmly. Although you're only supposed to put 1 DS game in each slot, you can fit 2 in each, making it pretty snug. The inside material is soft and the outside looks bold and clean. Play-Asia got it to me FAST, and overall this item is a MUST BUY for anyone with a DS Lite!
A good case for a great price I just got this yesterday, and for the $11 it costs, I am happy with it. It's not perfect, but I don't think there are any better cases out there for the DS Lite as of now. On the outside, it is of high build quality and I believe it will stand up to some wear without breaking down. On the inside, it is covered in a soft cloth like material which won't scratch up the DS Lite, and there are two elastic straps to hold the DS Lite in place. However the case doesn't seem to be made of "Shock absorbing material" as the info here states. There is a tiny bit of cushion, but I would still be weary of dropping it.
I was happy to find that there are places to put DS games, each of which may have only been designed for one, but can easily hold two. There is also a place to put one GBA cart. These are nice and work well, but the fabric used for the comparments is rather flimsy. There easily is space for a stylus slot, but one wasn't built into it, which is a disappointment.
Pro's:
Fits everything well
Places to put games
Good Price
Con's:
No place to put an extra stylus
Fabric on inside appears fragile/cheap/flimsy
I'd give this a 4.5/5, but I have to round down due to the stated faults.
Great Pouch Great Pouch but what took me away was the inside and whats on the back. the inside holds two DS games and one Game Boy Advance game. But to where everything inside is protected. The back of the pouch has two ways to carry around. It has a snap click thingie to where you and where it. And a belt clip.
great case. bought this case with my navy DS Lite. it has 2 pouches for games and one larger pouch for small accessories or a GBA game. if you're like me and have more games than you can handle, you can store more than one game in each pouch. hori products ftw.
