Basically, it's a DSi in bigger.
4.2 Inch screen, that's it.
Oh, and that means "huge pixels" not "many pixels".

Japanese!|Google Translate!

Portable? Barely, seeing how it's now even bigger than the PSP.

Potential sources joystiq and ign.
I just read about this, in my opinion?

shit. I mean it now looks like a phat DS now.

Only Flatter

I don't even think flat is so important.
I mean, we got like 2 other dimensions.

Ah great, now I can't call mine the DS phat anymore

But seriously, who buys DSs anymore. Everybody and their mum already got one.

Well judging from the bigger screens, this version might be for old people. Grandmas.

games for your mom

I just bought the DSi.



FUCK YOU TOO, NINTENDO

Isn't this new DSi supposed to come with the Tegra chip?

Not confirmed yet.

Maybe its for the "Heavy"
Little Stylus does not fit in big man hands!

Also i don't really seem why nintendo's rushing to get crap done
They left their mark(which is bringing fail to a once great video game company) already
Nintendo should give up on the DS's for a little bit and work on creating something or equal to more recent consoles
Because face it, the Wii sucks ass because of little games in the categories of "Mature"

the point could be for older people

easier to see and hold the stylus

Genius. Simply genius. They spend years milking this thing by making it smaller, and now...

Now they're making it bigger.

Well played, Nintendo. Well played.

The fat DS strikes again!
I think Nintendo likes losing money...

I hope Nintendo releases another limited edition Legend of Zelda model for a package with Spirit Tracks.

"ITS YOUR FAVORITE SYSTEM! Now for fat people!"

As a man with big hands, I support Nintendo.

They only made it because so many of their older customers complained that the DS was too small. It even comes pre-loaded with brain age games and a dictionary. It's for older folk and offers nothing new; chill out. If anything we should praise Nintendo for listening to their customers so closely; they wouldn't have even considered this if they didn't get enough demand.

I'd like to have one anyway, though. I'd imagine that the larger touch screen area lets you be a lot more precise in touch-based games. It'd be the unit I use at home. No more tapping one pixel too far to the right and having Maxwell leap into a fire pit seemingly of his own volition. |:[

They're not losing money, but they're losing profit.

I am still sticking with my regular DSi. I don't need a bigger one. Besides, that is not technically an upgrade but just a scaled version.

*sigh*

i miight just buy it if the prices are right, because i do really want a DSi. I mean i could always use my DS stylus with the bigger DSi, i'd just have to put it back in a case when im done

haha no.

Not getting it. Sorry but I don't see how nintendo can just go "HAY LOOK WE SLIGHTLY MODDED IT" and then:

Edited:

Why does it have to be such an ugly color though?

If I ever do get a DSi, it's definitely going to be the fat ass one. It would be so ridiculous to use that in public.

holy fuck the stylist is now a freaking pen

fucking huge

The hell.

Nintendo have already admitted a loss in profit and now this?!?!?!

Original DS: Wow awesome!

DS Lite: woah its so small and sleak

DSi: I cant be assed to buy this shit no more.

DSi LL: What the fucking fuck is that

but the buttons are the same exact size and the same distances from the edges

Edited:


(and many, MANY more)
i think you'll find that it's common for Nintendo to go with a stupid color scheme (optional or not)

you just have to accept it

They made it that big and couldn't give the thing its GBA slot back?

Holy hell, how many do you need?

Oh wait...
One to go into your left pocket (Ds Phat)
One to go into your right pocket (Ds Lite)
One to go into your left sock (Dsi)
One to go into your right sock (Dsi LL)

Ffs.
I already get pissed off playing the DS Lite, enough to chuck it at wall.
Piece of shit.

fat kids should use phat DS xD

Heh..heh...no, just no.

For some reason this reminds me of the PS3 pricing fiasco.

Like Nintendo is somehow slapping us across the face with wads (teehee) of cash.

Why doesn't Nintendo build their products with Nintendium any more? I miss my indestructible gaming devices.

you mean PSP?

Next on the list. Wii Laptops.

Edited:

Sadly Enough that seems like something Nintendo could possibly do.

I love when you buy something then the company releases an even better version later that year.

Yeah >:O I bought it too and now
