Ladies and gentlemen, it appears we have another case of ...


Wait...

No, that's...

It actually IS kind of fucked up that they did that.

Nevermind.

Carry on.

I may think that is just a little too big for a DS.O.O I want a portable system, not a mini computer looking thing.

It´s still too early for an update of this. I like the screen size though.

I have to admit I'm intrigued by the new colour choice.

HAHA. I kind of want one, because I haven't owned a DS since the original fatass ones. And then I broke mine (never again).

Pretty sure it wouldn't be able to fit in my skinny jeans, though.

Just smear your poop all over your current DS/DSi and you have the DSi L(o)L.

And I think that it's a bit too big.

There's nothing wrong with the Double Down Browntown Edition DSi.

Its two huge screens with consumer rape wedged in the middle.

Not to say I don't want one to replace my DS Phat...

I would be mad about this if a) I didn't still have a DS Lite and didn't upgrade to a DSi and b) if I wasn't unsure about whether I'd want something that big. But I can see why other people might be pissed off.

I'm not mad, I just think it's dumb. I think anybody who bought a DSi might have decent grounds to be mad. That is, if they like this big ugly thing.

I'm pretty sure this thing is bigger than roughly 80% of the sandwiches I've eaten throughout my entire lifetime.

Nintendo's Notebook! Awesome!

On serious note, I maybe picking this one up to play Contra IV and Dementium since I'd been complaining about the game screen size for a while.

This is the DSi version of those calculators with the really big buttons and oversized displays made for grandma when she does her grocery shopping.

Also, this will be perfect for my mom when Dragon Quest 9 comes out.

That thing is too damn huge. If I want a bigass portable, I'll play Columns on my Game Gear.

Also, brown can be a classy color for gadgets. That's red wine. The actual black DSi LL is Dark Brown, and looks ok, but is too damn big.

I swear Topher you are one of my favourite editors on this site and it's because of shit like this.

I like big handhelds but I don't see why they couldn't add a GBA slot for a console with full DS functionality. I already though the DSi "it's too small for one" excuse was bullshit now there's no excuse at all.

Once again, you've proven how awesome you are. Seriously, the DS LL is pointless, and I'm surprised Nintendo would waste R&D on it.

Looks like its sporting the brown, wood grain atari look.

I already have an old gray phat and a pretty sweet red and black lite. Those screens are awfully attractive, but it depends on the price and the future game library.

You'd figure they would've adjusted the button size a bit on the LL.

Since my DS is exclusively reserved for bed gaming, The larger model is sort of a blessing for my strained eyes. Also I didn't buy a DSi so this will be my excuse.

I had no idea there was "controversy" surrounding the release of the DSi XL. Why? Its just bigger.
