Nintendo DSi XL "Bombchu" Commercial



It's good to be big.

Nintendo DSi XL Japanese Trailer



Size

The DSi XL measures 161 x 91.4 x 21.2 mm (6.34 x 3.6 x 0.83"), 1.61x the total volume of the DSi, and 1.48x the volume of the DS Lite. It weighs 314 grams, compared to the DSi's 214g and the DS Lite's 218g.

Screens

The screens are 4.25 inches diagonal. For comparison, the DSi's screens measure 3.25 inches, and the DS Lite's screens are 3 inches. As it is only a minor hardware revision, there is no reason to believe that the resolution will change from 256x192 pixels per screen. The reason for the larger screens is mainly attributed to allowing easier play on games that feature small text and precision gameplay. Another reason, according to Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, is "to offer a new play style, where those who are surrounding the game player can also join in one way or the other to the gameplay."

Colors-

The Japanese version will launch in four colors: Wine Red, Dark Brown, Lime Green, and Natural White. No announcements have been made regarding color for any other region.

Included software

Preloaded on the internal memory: the DSi Browser, Flipnote Studio, Brain Age Express: Arts & Letters, Brain Age Express: Math, Dsi speak channel, and Meikyou Kokugo Rakubiki Jiten, a dictionary program. Contents for the North American and European releases will be simular.

3G and Bluetooth-

The dsi ll will feature free unlimited wireless 3G access.It will also feature Bluetooth for data, app, music and info transfer between dsi lls,computers and other compatible accesories ex.like keybords, Gps or FM radio adaptors.

Accessories-

The DSi XL, like every other DS, includes a stylus that fits into the unit. The DSi XL stylus is 96mm long, just 4mm longer than the stylus on the DSi. The XL also includes a 129.3mm-long pen-shaped stylus, which does not fit inside the console. In addition, for the first time in the DS line, two DS models will share a common AC adapter. The DSi XL will use the same AC adapter as the DSi.

Battery-

Despite the increased size of the displays, the battery in the DSi XL supposedly outlasts that in the DSi. Nintendo claims 14-18 hours of runtime on the lowest brightest setting, compared to 9-14 on the DSi. On the highest brightness, the DSi XL supposedly lasts 5-6 hours, two hour longer than the range for the original DSi.

Compatibility-

As a DSi, the XL will be able to play DS cartridges, including those designed only for DSi and those enhanced for DSi. It will also be capable of downloading and playing DSiWare. Like the current DSi, there is no slot for Game Boy Advance cartridges.

The Nintendo DSi XL is a large "bigger younger brother" to the rest of the DS lineup and takes most of its specs from the DSi which was released last year. The main new feature is the 93% bigger screen it has compared to the screen you normally get with the Nintendo DS. The screens measure out to 4.2in diagonally and will provide you with more space for viewing content on the device and also playing games that require a lot of stylus actions and/or RPG or strategy games which require many items to be shown on the screen at once. The device comes with the same resolution cameras that the DSi has and there is no GBA slot at all which is kind of weird considering the size of the device but that's why the DS Lite is still around. It has a nice finish on the top with a matted finish around the rest of the device. The device is definitely heavier than previous DS models and isn't going to just drop right in your pocket as this is not meant for that. The hardware is up to par with Nintendo standers.
