The DSi Browser was an updated version of that original DS Browser. Don't know if it was based on the old port, or if it was redone. The DSi was more capable than the original DS, and the browser had to be redone because the old GBA-slot RAM cart was no longer supported. They switched the base to a considerably newer version of Opera. As a major advantage, the browser actually shipped with the DSi, making it much more useful than the two-cartridge getup necessary for the original DS (which, in the end, very few people ended up getting for that system).
- Wowfunhappy 4y agoThe DSi browser was also actually good. I preferred it to the 3DS browser, by a huge margin. I actually preferred the DSi's web browser to the browser on my iPod Touch, because the DSi's dual screens were utilized in a clever way that made it easier to view websites formatted for desktops. (Mobiile-optimized websites mostly weren't a thing yet.) By contrast, the browser on the original DS was a barely usable nightmare. I'm sure the developers did what they could with the limited hardware available, but the result ran extremely slowly.
