To be fair, I’ve been caling the DSi LL an old person’s system ever since we first saw it. I’m sure that I wasn’t the only one saying that, either. It’s as if Nintendo heard us. Now they respond to that, and they barely give a nod to our precious elderly population.
Nintendo’s James Honeywell tells CVG: “It’s absolutely not just for old people. DSi XL appeals to as many people, if not more, than its predecessors.”
“With bigger screens and a larger pen-like stylus it’s likely that older users may find the DSi XL easier and more comfortable to use but there are many more people it can and will appeal to.”
Then he talks the system up for gamers and families to get past the old people stuff. They push the bigger screens, and really, now that I’ve seen how much better they look than the older screens, I’m all about them. And I’m in my 30s.
