New DSi...Now with a LARGER SCREEN

[MecaEcco]

Another DSi is upon us...This one featuring a larger screen. Supposedly this new system may be marketed to older people who have trouble seeing small text and like the feel of larger buttons. I do not think this represents a new iteration of the DS that must be taken seriously. But if you are interested here are the articles.

I got the white DSi and I'm loving it. Maybe I'll get this one too just for the hell of it.

...seriously?

I never saw the screen sizes of the DS as a problem, frankly.

Surely this will just make the console itself bulkier? (a bad thing, considering it needs to be portable)

I wish I had money like that. My new DSi is literally less than a week old...Imagine how my heart sank when I saw the headline "NEW DSI".

Hrm. I'll probably get that one then. My DSPhat is dying on me, and I still have my GBA, so...

I'm considering it also, but we'll have to see. My Phat has had a crack on the screen for about a year now.

Releasing this so soon after the DSI came out seems mean to those who just bought a DSi.

Regardless, I'm staying with my DSlite. I don't see a need for cameras and I am getting an R4 device.

Wow, they upgraded the DSi already. That's epic fail on the people who bought the first one.

Holy shit. I care more about the mating rituals of sea monkeys.

OHMAHGAWD! I LOVE learning about Artemia(Sea Monkey genus)

lol wat

More popularly known as Brine Shrimp, the Artemia:

"The only genus in the family Artemiidae, have evolved little since the Triassic period. First discovered in Lymington, England, in 1755, Artemia are found worldwide in inland saltwater lakes, but not in oceans.

Artemia is a well known genus as one variety (sometimes identified as a new species Artemia salina x nyos), a cultivated subspecies of Artemia salina, is sold as a novelty gift, most often under the marketing name Sea-Monkeys."
