Hello,
I am 12 years old and I do not have a DSi but I am asking for one for my Birthday. I was playing on my cousins and I wanted to go to abcfamily and watch TV episodes. It said that I would have to download Flash player but it wasn't availible for the Nintendo DSi system. I thought that it was only that website I couldn't watch shows on. I went to another website and tried to watch TV but it didn't work yet again. I really want to be able to watch TV on it because if I am not allowd to have a TV in my room and I love to watch abcfamily. I would love to be able to watch abcfamily on my Nintendo DSi. My Birthday is in 1 month and I am going to get a DSi and I am disappointed because really the only reason I wanted a DSi was because I cold take funny photos and watch Television. I hope that the company will change the system from Opera to Internet explorer. This is going to be my 13th Birthday and I really want to have a special Birthday and be able to watch Television on the DSi.If you do change the Opera system to Internet explorer(which I REALLY hope you do!!!) will it change all the other people who have already bought the DSi with the Opera system to the new Internet Explorer system? I really hope it does because I am going to get the DSi in about a month and if the Opera system has not been changed by then, then I will not be able to watch T.V. and that would be so horrible for me. Please Please change the Opera system to Internet Explorer because it will make not only make me EXTREMELY happy but a lot of other people aswell!!! Please. My 13th Birthday is on the 25th of July and I hope that this will be changed.
Thanks so much for your time and I hope you think of everything that you have just read very thoughtfully.
Please email me.
Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 8.0
Hey dude. It's great to hear that you're getting a dsi. I have one, and it's awesome. I know it would be cool if you could watch tv on the dsi, but it doesn't have that ability yet. Opera, by the way, is not the reason it can't play video. Opera on a computer plays video just fine. Flash is needed to play video, and the dsi just isn't fast enough to handle it like that. Putting internet Explorer in place of Opera would only make it worse, because Internet Explorer is slow, badly programmed, and filled with security holes. However, there is still hope. If you have a Wii connected to the Internet, Wii TV will be coming out late this year, and allows you to transfer shows onto your dsi's SD card. It's not abc family, but it's something.
