Nintendo DSi
That’s right, it’s not a joke! Nintendo announced during their Fall Press Conference that they are releasing their third redesign of the Nintendo DS, as some had predicted.
Called the DSi, it’s a little thinner, as it removes the slot of Gameboy Advance games, however that seems to be all that it looses. What is interesting is what is new:
- Screens are now larger than the DS Lite, at 3.5 inches
- “Audio enhancements”
- TWO Cameras (one of which is .3 megapixel, 640×480)
- Just like the Wii and WiiWare, “DSiWare” is now available to download games and other things directly to the DSi.
- Should accept SD Cards, as well as play music, etc.
Personally, I think I’ll find myself going to the store and buying it when it comes out, even though I already have a DS Lite, just for the hardware upgrades. It seems cool, though I’m kind of surprised that Nintendo is already releasing a third revision of the DS, though I’m going to guess that it will sell… very well. Check back for more updates.
