The Nintendo DSi XL (known as the Nintendo DSi LL in Japan) is a handheld game console produced by Nintendo and the fourth iteration of the Nintendo DS handheld gaming console and Internet Device, being the direct successor to the Nintendo DSi. It is slated to be released in Japan on November 21, 2009 and Europe and North America in January of 2010.
[edit] Hardware

Size

The DSi XL measures 161 x 91.4 x 21.2 mm (6.34 x 3.6 x 0.83″), 1.61x the total volume of the DSi, and 1.48x the volume of the DS Lite. It weighs 314 grams, compared to the DSi’s 214g and the DS Lite’s 218g.

Screens

The screens are 4.25 inches diagonal. For comparison, the DSi’s screens measure 3.25 inches, and the DS Lite’s screens are 3 inches. As it is only a minor hardware revision, there is no reason to believe that the resolution will change from 256×192 pixels per screen. The reason for the larger screens is mainly attributed to allowing easier play on games that feature small text and precision gameplay. Another reason, according to Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, is “to offer a new play style, where those who are surrounding the game player can also join in one way or the other to the gameplay.”

Colors-

The Japanese version will launch in four colors: Wine Red, Dark Brown, Lime Green, and Natural White. No announcements have been made regarding color for any other region.

Included software

Preloaded on the internal memory: the DSi Browser, Flipnote Studio, Brain Age Express: Arts & Letters, Brain Age Express: Math, Dsi speak channel, and Meikyou Kokugo Rakubiki Jiten, a dictionary program. Contents for the North American and European releases will be simular.

3G and Bluetooth-

The dsi ll will feature free unlimited wireless 3G access.It will also feature Bluetoth for data, app, music and info transfer between dsi lls,computers and other compatible accesories ex.like keybords, Gps or FM radio adaptors.

Accessories-

The DSi XL, like every other DS, includes a stylus that fits into the unit. The DSi XL stylus is 96mm long, just 4mm longer than the stylus on the DSi. The XL also includes a 129.3mm-long pen-shaped stylus, which does not fit inside the console. In addition, for the first time in the DS line, two DS models will share a common AC adapter. The DSi XL will use the same AC adapter as the DSi.

Battery-

Despite the increased size of the displays, the battery in the DSi XL supposedly outlasts that in the DSi. Nintendo claims 14-18 hours of runtime on the lowest brightest setting, compared to 9-14 on the DSi. On the highest brightness, the DSi XL supposedly lasts 5-6 hours, two hour longer than the range for the original DSi.

Compatibility-

As a DSi, the XL will be able to play DS cartridges, including those designed only for DSi and those enhanced for DSi. It will also be capable of downloading and playing DSiWare. Like the current DSi, there is no slot for Game Boy Advance cartridges.
