DSi Launch - Unbox and Start Up

DS-X2 report that some retailers had hundreds of people waiting to grab hold of a DSi or two, but many learnt that chances were slim. Popular stores weren't even able to get their stock on shelves due to masses of pre-ordering.

hey wow thats more win than i thought!!

As my Lite has been screwed for a while now, I think I will buy a DSi, it has some pretty cool design tweaks.

The Japaneses can be hilarious with there warning signs,anyways, thanks for all the pictures Linkyshinks, the DSi is definitely looking great.

Yup, very cool. Thanks for the pics. I am so looking forward to replacing my old huge red DS with broken hinges. The lite always just made me go "eh, mine still works" but the DSi is a step up that I will definitely be getting.

Rather sweet looking. I can't wait until they get over here stateside as I am pretty tired of my fat DS now and want some change.

Neat-o. I'll probably pick one up to replace my DS from launch day.

So where do the games get saved? Is there internal memory?

Gawd, the DSi has such a nice interface. Me want. :(

The DSi proving yet again the japanese will buy the 5th rererererelease of your product with no real upgrade...as long as you include stickers.

This is the 3rd version of the DS - Phat, Lite and i.  The PSP got there with 3 versions earlier.  I really fail to see a problem (for those who do).  There will always be things that were not available or too expensive to include originally.  Would it be better to stagnate?  No-one has to buy the newer versions, they all (including the one you have) still do the basic things (play games).

Yeah, the DSi is actually an upgrade from the DS Lite. Phat to Lite was all cosmetic, nothing software/hardware related.

I'm thinking the next Gameboy, yes and you can be sure it will be called a Gameboy, will have a Super Mario Bros 3 download screen :D

^ man i hope they dont hark back to the gamecube era.  epic fail.  they have gone and included an sd card slot....that should be the way forward.  not better graphics, better games.

if you want better graphics, just suck up your fanboyism and get a psp.

Are the power and volume buttons located on the left of the DSi?...because that side wasn't shown and those pics didn't show a power/volume button.

"Look at the first pic, it's on the inside now. On the evidence of that very pic you can alter the volume on screen now."
