New Nintendo DSi XL will be the Largest DS Model yet

Nintendo is coming out with a new revamped Nintendo DS. This one is actually going to be bigger than previous DS models. It will have dual 4.25" touch screens. It comes with a thicker stylus and will come in the colors white, red and brown.

Expected release in North America is early 2010, the new DSi XL *for extra large- will probably remain priced similar to the current version of the DSi.

The older DS models were sometimes harder to read with their 3.25" screens and as games become more graphics intensive, seeing all that details requires a larger screen. It is a tradeoff for easy portability vs. quality gaming, but this time around the quality gaming has won, and although it may not fit into some spaces it did before, it is still small enough to be portable.

Giftedgamer will review the new unit once it comes out.
