Let’s not turn everything with a screen into an ebook reader, pleeeease? The DSi XL is launching in North America on March 28, and Nintendo’s putting that gorgeous 256×192 display to use with 100 Classic Books June 14. Dear Christ.
Nintendo’s next iteration in the DS range of products has just been announced for Australia, and it’s about as exciting as you could hope. The DSi XL adds some bulk, particularly in the screen department- expanding them to 4.2-inches.

Simulate the experience of owning a DSi XL months before it goes on sale outside of Japan, with this Datel Japan DSi sound speaker.
The DSi shatters and fragments, which is more effective at maiming and disabling a target. On the other hand, the PSP Go! remains whole, for greater penetration through tough surfaces. Both, however, are fun to look at.
Not to sound phallic, but things keep growing bigger on the DSi. Nintendo confirmed the new 4.2-inch screen DSi LL earlier today, and now Nyko’s 8x optical Zoom Case is finally getting pushed out the door.
God knows what Nintendo’s marketing strategy is. My guess is that it involves picking a group that couldn’t give a rat’s ass about gaming, and then try and get them to buy their stuff. I guess it works for them, but it really does seem weird. Their latest strategy is to let customer’s at Toni & Guy’s flagship hairdressing salon in Paddington in Sydney play the DSi while they get their hair done.
