Nintendo DSi Preview



Here's a video showing off the new features of the Nintendo DSi. Notice how there are no kids playing with it. The Nintendo DSi is for grown ups, apparently. I like the last line, "The Nintendo DSi is the next step in portable gaming." Gaming is about the last thing any of those people would use the DSi for.

The new Nintendo DSi is coming out on April 5th with a $170 pricetag. It's available for pre-order on Amazon now. It's all pretty cool, I guess.

Here's what gets me. The screen is still pretty small (even though the video says it's bigger, it's still only 3.5 inches). Plus, why not get rid of the stylus all together, go with a larger touch screen. I like the new camera options, but after about 5 days with it, no one would care.

In the end, you are left with a Nintendo DS with some small neat options. There really isn't much to go crazy over.
