It's not the default stylus, you are given two, the regular one slides into the DSi as per usual. The larger one is meant for older users." I like the bigger screen but OMG that stylus looks so awful "
DSi LL will feature two 4.2 inch screens, offering 93% additional area over the current DSi's 3.25 inch screen size. The LL also has a wider viewing angle than the DSi. Nintendo states that this will allow friends and family to gather around and watch others play. You may also notice the speaker outlets have turned into a hexagonal arrangement which is larger - this could mean it's slightly louder than the current model. In terms of internal functionality, the two platforms are the same. However, separate from the system itself, DSi LL will offer users a couple of bonuses. Nintendo will be including two different touch pens with LL. One can be stored in the system similar to the current touch pen, although it's about four millimeters longer than the current one:

" I can see why they make it a different option as the bigger screens have an upside for some (eh, bigger) and downside for others (lesser visuals as the resolution is the same) so it shouldn't be just the one. Too bad it doesn't have a normal DSi next to it so we can see the size difference. Edit: Er, duh, I'm blind and didn't notice the DSi there, lol. That's quite a bit larger then, I don't think most gamers will prefer it, stretchy visuals. "But this way I'll finally be able to beat Elite Beat Agents :P I don't think most games will look much worse save maybe for those in 3D

" Wow... I hope that comes to the US in due time. "It's confirmed as coming to Europe.. at some point, so I imagine it'll be released in the US as well.

A bigger DSi? Not the direction I expected Nintendo to go in. Still, ghastly stylus aside it does look kinda cool. My only problem is that the price is being jacked up too high for me (it's going to be $220 even in Japan) and I agree with Jeff Gerstmann (check his Twitter feed) that this has come along way too soon after the release of the original DSi.

"I remember within months of Nintendo releasing their first Brain Age title, older consumers in Japan instantly complained about not being able to see the screen or being able to use the stylus effectively. So really, for those people who these DS's are really designed for, it is the perfect time. Jeff ain't no granddaddy yet, hell, he's not even a father yet...unless that talk of him getting it on in a Burger King is true.A bigger DSi? Not the direction I expected Nintendo to go in.

" Jesus Fucking Christ Nintendo. PLEASE STOP WITH THE REVISIONS! For fuck's sake we are on the 4th revision of a 5 year old handheld. Please stop and just make a DS 2 or whatever is really next. "
