So, Japan gets a new DSi with a bigger screen. No doubt soon this will come to the rest of the world. Honest? I really hope none of you got that DSi yet. I would honestly be pissed if i had a handheld console and the company pulled this stuff.

I mean, i totally get it that the portability of a smaller portable, but c'mon... couldn't they really release this sooner with the DSi?

Also, i'm a big screen whore... so there is that.

I got one for my birthday. Like a week and a half ago.

Honestly can't be pissed about it because I know I'm not going to use it that much, plus it's a sexy matte black and I didn't pay for it. Also, kinda gotten used to this kinda thing from Nintendo.

See where you're coming from, though.

Blargh Bells!

That said this might help with Insane mode in Ouendan/Elite Beat Agents.

I got one and honestly I couldn't give a shit about this one. It's gonna make games pixelated as hell. 3D titles are already fugly as they are.

EDIT: Colors: Wine Red, Dark Brown, Natural White

November 21, 2009 release date

¥20,000 (same as the Wii, lol)

Merged!

Heard about this as a rumour a few days ago along with Nintendo's statement that it was nothing but speculation, which I immediately took to be a full confirmation.

Azisien 10-29-2009 06:22 AM

I think I'm going to keep holding out for the DSi LLx^2-1^4 pikachu edition.

Mirai Gen 10-29-2009 09:59 AM

But no seriously guys let's all buy the DS again.

Between the special editions and upgrades one by one I can't wait to see what the next one is like. They might include something else that is completely fucking pointless.

Meister 10-29-2009 10:03 AM

I guess at least there's not many features anyone can put in a game that require the bigger screens to work.

e: vvv well Mirai, there's your answer.
