"First announced in October of last year, the Nintendo DSi is a revamped version of Nintendo's spectacularly successful DS handheld gaming console.
The DSi has been available in its native Japan for some time but launches across Europe on April 3. At first glance, the device doesn't appear to be vastly different from its predecessor, the DS Lite - but on the inside are some big changes.
Below, we take a close look at the new DSi, side-by-side with a DS Lite, and share the key differences between the two."
New Chrono Trigger Form-ism figures of Crono and Marle have been showcased at a Square Enix pop-up store, with pre-orders expected soon.
The Nintendo DS has some amazing titles available. Here are some of the best nostalgic games that every child of the DS era grew up playing.
I enjoyed both Rush games, I did think the action was sometimes too fast to see what was coming up in terms of hazards though, which meant replaying the same stage a bunch of times, other than that they were enjoyable, good special stages, 3D sections and bosses for the most part.
DS is one of the best consoles of all time. Such a rich library of software
Zelda were all glorious on it.

i will keep my dslite
I gots 3DS already 2Lite and the old model. Imma get the DSi soon maybe a RED one. Suwoop.
Waste of money. DS Lite was worth the upgrade, this just features tacky media functions that the PSP easily trumps. I'll stick with my DS Lite and PSP over this rubbish.
"cameras are nothing to boast about resolution-wise, both are motion-sensitive and can detect faces...Nintendo also promises that the DSi's motion-sensitive cameras will bring "a new dimension" to gameplay"
This is what calls for most changes in gameplay, a motion sensitive on both sides means the DSi will be aware of which side the player moves it to, thus allowing motion controlled games. I was about to buy a new DS lite shortly before xmas, I'm glad I did not, I will wait for the DSi.
Oh, and it's quite funny that this is on MSN
They forgot the more techie side of things, the stuff under the hood.
The DSi has twice the processing power and four times the ram. This might not mean much now as they're trying not to make the DS Lite useless but it means improved performance and hopefully in the future bigger and better games because they can afford to use higher capacity cards(which are slower).
I have a pre-order for my DSi, had it since Feb. Can't wait.
