Nintendo DSi confirmed!
 
Nintendo announces Nintendo DSi

Quote:

Nintendo's Media Summit has just thrown us its first juicy bone of the night, and it's a big one. As was previously rumored, Satoru Iwata has revealed the Nintendo DSi, the direct successor to the DS Lite. Hit the break and refresh for regular updates!

Update 1: The GBA slot is gone (nooo!), while the size has been reduced by 12% or 2.6 millimeters.

Update 2: And we have a 3 Megapixel camera, music playback, and screens that are expanded to 3.25 inches!

Update 3: There's an SD slot also, built-in memory, an on-board browser, and game downloads that use Wii Points! The DSi will come with 1,000 free Wii Points.

Update 4: Correction: make that two cameras!

Update 5: A new download service to accompany WiiWare: DSWare is confirmed. Wow.

Update 6: Get those preorders in, people: the DSi launches on November 1st, and will come in white and black. We look forward to seeing the queues for this. Oh, and it's ¥18,900, or roughly $179.

Update 7: Back to DSWare: apparently, this will be priced at four different price points: free (!), 200 Wii Points, 500 Wii Points, and "premium" (800 Wii Points).

Update 8: The colors for the DSi will be matte black and matte white. Begone, foul fingerprints that have taunted us so!

Update 9: Correction of our correction: there does appear to be only one camera. That's enough for us!

Update 10: Oops, another correction required here, folks. There will be two cameras after all: an external 3 Megapixel versions, and one VGA camera located on the hinge, directed towards the user. Sorry about that! [Thanks, Rika!]

Aaaaand ... that really does seem to be it for now. Commence yaaaaaying. And then hop over to Wii Fanboy for an exciting update on the storage issue!

Gotcha...in Japan. From what I read it will be 2009 for the rest of the world.

Is it me, or does that seem really...quick? (A month before release)?

It does seem like quite a late announcement... But I`m sure there is some back reason for it - if nothing else to be sure of supply before setting a date.

Not quick at all Nintendo just isn't like Sony or Microsoft and don't feel the need to announce their products months/years in advance for heavily hyped PR releases.

It sounds like a glorified DS though, nothing more. No mention at all about new hardware that can support better games than before, huh?

BlackPheonix 10-02-2008 12:14 PM

WOW!! now all they need is to add a phone mixed into that and that would be a perfect DS. No? I just hope the graphics are as good as it sounds.
